This sort of workflow/project management software is much needed in the GIS industry sector and I've not seen any open source options out there that met my specific needs when I looked previously. One that might help at least on the conersion/transformation side is Talend studio with it's spatial component: http://www.spatialdataintegrator.com/
But that's likely only one piece of the puzzle. I believe that much of what is required for job tracking and workflow can be developed through some simple web interfaces, with open source apps sitting on the server side. I've taken several attempts on doing this but never devoted enough time/focus to get very far. If any else is interested in developing such tools, I'd be interested in discussing it further. I believe these are necessary to streamline workflow and gain back efficiency that has been lost during the industry's general move toward using point-click GUI environments for everything.
