Features

Multi-Manager Sign-off Workflow

Indian projects often need sign-offs from multiple stakeholders — department head, finance, and CMD. Avani's sequential or parallel approval chains make multi-manager sign-offs automatic, tracked, and auditable.

Deliverable Tracking

Break projects into deliverables and sub-tasks. Track completion percentages, assignees, and deadlines. Every deliverable has its own comment thread and file attachment area — no more email chains.

Project Progress Dashboard

Real-time Gantt-style progress view for every project. See which deliverables are on-track, at-risk, or overdue. Management gets a bird's-eye view across all active projects in the company.

Budget Tracking (₹)

Set project budgets in INR, log expenses against each deliverable, and get real-time budget burn alerts. Integrates with Avani's finance module for GST-compliant expense recording.

Team Assignment

Assign team members from your existing employee directory. Avani checks their current workload and attendance status before assignment — no overloading without visibility.

Deadline Management

Set milestones and deadlines with automatic reminders. Escalation alerts go to the project manager and assigned employee 48 hours before a deadline and again on the day.

Key benefits

How it works

  1. Create Project & Add Deliverables — Set up a new project in minutes — add title, client, budget, and deadline. Break it into deliverables and assign each to a team member from your employee directory.
  2. Route for Approvals — Configure your sign-off chain. When a deliverable is marked complete, it automatically routes to the next approver. Multi-level sign-offs are tracked with timestamps and comments.
  3. Track, Close & Report — Monitor progress and budget in real-time. When the project closes, generate a completion report for the client or internal archive — including all sign-off records and budget actuals.

Frequently asked questions

Why do Indian teams need project management software?

Indian business culture involves multiple sign-off layers, frequent scope changes, and complex hierarchies. Generic project tools like Trello or Asana don't support multi-manager approval chains, INR budget tracking, or PF-compliant project hour logging. Avani is built with Indian SMB workflows in mind — approval routing, budget in rupees, and integration with HR and payroll.

How does the multi-manager sign-off workflow work?

When a project deliverable is marked complete by the assigned employee, it enters the approval chain you've configured. This could be sequential (Team Lead → Project Manager → Client) or parallel (Finance Head + Department Head simultaneously). Each approver receives a notification, can comment or request revisions, and their approval is timestamped and logged. The full sign-off history is available in the project audit trail.

Can I track project budgets in Avani?

Yes. You can set a total project budget in INR at the start. As expenses are logged against deliverables, Avani updates the budget burn in real time. You get alerts when the project hits 75% and 90% of budget. The finance module records all project expenses in a GST-compliant format, making CA audit preparation significantly easier.

How does Avani compare to Jira or Asana?

Jira and Asana are excellent for pure project/task management but require separate subscriptions for HR, payroll, and finance. Avani includes project management as part of the Business OS — so your project hours, budgets, and team assignments connect directly to payroll, expense claims, and HR records. For Indian SMBs managing costs carefully, this single-platform approach saves ₹1-3 lakh annually in tool subscriptions.

Can I manage deliverables and sub-tasks?

Yes. Each project can have unlimited deliverables, and each deliverable can have multiple sub-tasks. Sub-tasks have their own assignees, due dates, and completion status. The parent deliverable's progress bar updates automatically as sub-tasks are completed. You can attach files, add comments, and link expenses to individual deliverables.

Does project management in Avani support client-facing views?

Yes. You can generate a client-facing project summary report showing deliverable status, timeline, and budget burn — without exposing your internal HR or employee data. Consulting firms and IT services companies in Bengaluru and Pune use this to keep clients updated without scheduling weekly calls.

Can I assign projects across multiple cities?

Absolutely. Avani supports multi-location teams. You can assign deliverables to employees in your Delhi, Mumbai, or Hyderabad office from the same project board. Employee timezones and work schedules (from the HR module) are respected when setting deadline reminders.
