A project is any outcome that requires more than one action step. Most teams need project management. If your team is using Google Apps, Google Sites may be used as a simple project management tool.
Google Sites allow you to embed Google sheets, docs, slides, groups and calendars to help your team get things done painlessly. They also allow page level sharing, so you can control access to each page of the project site. A well designed project management site clearly conveys the "next action" to move the project forward and stay on track. It is important to emphasize action more than just data.
Use sites with sheets to:
- manage tasks
- manage status
- manage budgets
- display dashboards with graphs
Use sites with forms to:
- create surveys
- collect other lightweight data
Use sites with docs to:
- manage meeting agenda
- manage decisions
- record minutes
Use sites with calendars to:
- manage timelines
Use sites with groups to:
- manage sharing
If you need more robust project management systems, take a look at:
- Asana
- Freedcamp
- Taiga
- Trello
- Wrike
