In today’s connected world, forming teams of people to execute projects is seen as a challenge in government agencies and public and private organisations alike. For large enterprises, a small group of thoughtful and committed people performing different roles could essentially change the world. At the same time, however, it is hard to select an effective team with appropriate skills who can work collaboratively. In this project, as a starting point, the study's objectives required formulating skillset models and designing the theoretical framework to investigate project members’ capabilities. This study used three undergraduate courses’ data as input to find the skill features required in team project assignments. Additionally, possessing soft skills and Technological Savvy skills can help minimize member underperformance. Our case study of Predicting Teamwork Performance (PTPA) system also discovered some attributes that directly influence team projects and evaluating the results pointed out team members' strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, this theoretical framework can help team leaders recognize the skillsets necessary for project management.
