The automated task delegation and project management system tracks user profiles and project profiles, which include information about the interests and skills each user in the system possesses as well as the skills that are required by each project in the system and the characteristics of each project. This information can then be utilized to correlate user interests and skills with the available projects. Project data can be collected from the submitter to enable the automated matching. The user interface facilitates the collection and storage of the project profile data including tasks, files, resources, and tags.
