• 3. Responsibility Tracker: Assigns tasks to team members with performance metrics over time.
• 4. Dashboard & Analytics: Interactive visual reports on task completion, overdue items, and workload distribution.
• 5. Historical Log (Archive): Stores completed tasks with timestamps for auditing and trend analysis.
