working group
An Arbeitsgruppe (working group) can temporarily work on a single task or on a project. Projektgruppe is more specific and presupposes a clearly defined, time-limited project with a goal. Projektgruppe is the right choice for an explicitly defined project; otherwise, Arbeitsgruppe is often the more general option.
