Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 10:
11. A computing apparatus for reducing resource waste in an organization, the computing apparatus comprising:
a processor;
a memory that stores an issue tracking tool;
a sensor;
a global positioning system;
a historical software development project management database that stores, at a first area of a network, historical information for identifying, quantifying, and classifying the resource waste in the organization;
a personnel and operational issues database that stores, at a second area of the network, data that relates to personnel and operational issues in connection with a software development lifecycle; and
a communication interface coupled to each of the processor and the memory,
wherein the processor is configured to:
receive, via the network and the communication interface from a voice-to-text application of a user device at a third area of the network, a request for identifying waste in a first software development project;
identify, using the issue tracking tool as a software application, a plurality of tasks to be performed within the first software development project;
determine, using the sensor, for each task from among the identified plurality of tasks, whether a waste of at least one resource has occurred;
tag, using the global positioning system device and the issue tracking tool, each of the plurality of tasks with an electronic tag, the electronic tag including a predetermined data structure, the predetermined data structure including a category field, a sub-category field, and a resource wasted field, the resource wasted field indicating the waste of the at least one resource, the waste of the at least one resource being associated with a person, an entry for each of the category field, the sub-category field, and the resource wasted field being selected from a predefined set of codes;
extract, from the electronic tag of each of the plurality of tasks, data from the predetermined data structure and generate a report that indicates a result of the determine, the tag, and the extract;
use the report in conjunction with accessing the historical information that is stored in the historical software development project management database and the data that relates to personnel and operational issues that is stored in the personnel and operational issues database to analyze patterns of data in order to identify at least one individual person or group within the organization that is associated with the waste of the at least one resource in real time; and
transmit, via the network and by the communication interface, the generated report to the user, and

wherein, in identifying the plurality of tasks, the processor depicts the first software development project as a set of Jira stories, the set of Jira stories including the plurality of tasks to be performed within the first software development project.
