In Enterprise Architect you have access to a comprehensive project estimation tool that calculates effort from Use Case and Actor objects, coupled with project configurations defining the technical and environmental complexity of the work environment.

Resource Management

Managing the allocation of resources in the design and development of system components is an important and sometimes difficult task; Enterprise Architect provides you with an effective tool for assigning resources directly to model elements and tracking progress over time.

Resources

Risk Management

You can use the Risks window to assign risk to an element within a project; using risk types you can name the risk, define the type of risk and give it a weighting.

Maintenance

Within Enterprise Architect you can assign maintenance-related items to elements and track them, providing rapid capture and record keeping for items such as issues, changes, defects, and tasks.

You can also create and maintain a project glossary of processes, procedures, terms and descriptions.
