Original Problem

Large-scale research programs struggle to manage complex multi-phase project coordination and reporting across distributed teams

Principal investigators and program managers on government-funded research contracts (like NASA's $100M+ missions) face critical challenges coordinating multiple project phases, managing technical progress reporting, scheduling reviews, and ensuring compliance across dozens of interdependent activities. Current solutions lack integrated platforms that handle the unique demands of phased government contracts—combining schedule management, formal review coordination, action item tracking, and education/outreach activities in one system.
