Resource Management |
Managing the allocation of resources in the design and development of system components is an important and difficult task; Enterprise Architect enables the Project Manager or Development Manager to assign resources directly to model elements and track progress over time.

Risk Management |
The Project Management window can be used to assign Risk to an element within a project; the risk types enable the Project Manager to name the risk, define the type of risk, and give it a weighting.

Maintenance |
Enterprise Architect enables the Project Manager to track and assign maintenance-related items to elements within Enterprise Architect; this enables rapid capture and record keeping for items such as issues, changes, defects, and tasks.
A Project Manager can also create and maintain a project glossary of processes, procedures, terms and descriptions.
