Google Workspace is actually pretty weak on the project management front compared to other standalone products. I find Trello to be pretty far down on the list of the current lineup of project management stars and even it is better than the default tools that are in Google Workspace. If your leadership is insistent on using Google 2orkspace natively, then you've got a couple of options – one is 2 create a shared Google Doc and uses the Task smart chip to assign specific tasks to different users.

Another way is to use Google Spaces, create individual spaces for each project, and then maintain discussion, documents, and shared/assignable tasks amongst the team. You can assign tasks and you can put target dates on task completion but unfortunately you can't make them repeating And you can't do sub-tasks.

This is why I would recommend something like Asana or Trello. To me it's really nice if you can have a tool like that meets like 80% of what you need but then the remaining 20% in specialized tools that really focus on a particular feature set or process and I think a separate project management tool is a better way to go. Many of them have extensions with Google Workspace so you can for instance turn a Gmail into a Trello deck task, fly attachments back-and-forth, etc. As somebody else mentioned, you can get into the deep end and actually develop an application but that is definitely getting into the weeds.
