System and method for contextualized communication events and notifications for project management based on conversation processing

A system for reconveying communication events and notifications for project management to confirm, explain, track, and chivvy worker compliance with task assignments via communication without worker intervention, the system comprising:

• at least two communication devices in use by at least one worker and at least one supervisor;
• an adaptive forum communicatively coupled to the at least two digital communication devices via a communication network for adapting conversational threads between the workers and the supervisors based on message content being communicated through the adaptive forum;
• and
• a ReminderRing coupled to the communication device and to the adaptive forum for creating and reconveying communication events on a playback communication device from at least one conversation thread of the adaptive forum, the ReminderRing having:
• a processor for processing communication events and data associated with the communication events related to conversations in the adaptive forum;
• a recorder coupled to the processor for recording the processed communication events;
• a memory coupled to the recorder and to the processor for storing the recorded processed communication events;
• the processor configured to relate new communication events from the adaptive forum to communication events stored in the memory, thereby causing the playback device to reconvey the communication event to the worker;
• and
• the playback device coupled to the memory for presenting reconveyed communication events to the worker where the reconveyed communication event is a portion of the worker's previous conversation.

A system for project management with extraction and playback of contextualized conversation segments as a reminder for project management communications, without human intervention, the system comprising:

• at least one communication device to conversationally communicate and record a conversation datastream regarding at least one project task related to at least one project;
• a processor coupled to the communication device that processes communications events and context data;
• a memory coupled to the processor that stores the processed communicate events and processed context data related to the at least one project;
• a conversation segment extraction process coupled to the processor and the memory to extract contextualized conversation segments from the conversation datastream;
• and
• a notification process coupled to the processor and the conversation segment extraction process to determine when an associated context exists and to subsequently trigger playback of the contextualized conversation segment in order to, at least one of, notify, confirm, explain, track and chivvy worker completion of the at least one project task.

A method for project management based on reminder ring and conversation processing on a communications device without human intervention, the steps comprising:

• capturing and storing a conversation datastream of a project team in a memory on a communications device, wherein the conversation datastream includes conversation about project tasks, priorities, due dates, and assignments to project team members;
• dividing the conversation datastream into conversation segments;
• contextualizing the conversation segments with scheduling and delivery of reminders for project team members;
• linking the scheduled reminders with a project management system;
• and
• reminding a project team member of a project task through playback of an associated contextualized conversation segment triggered by the project management system.
