Project Cargo Move Tracker
Milestone board for project cargo move moves — 8 mode-specific statuses from booking to completion.

This tracker stores data locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded. It complements (not replaces) carrier track-and-trace: enter milestones from your carrier's notifications to keep one consolidated, private view across all providers.
Tracking project cargo move moves needs mode-specific milestones — out-of-gauge and heavy-lift pieces — transformers, turbines, modules — moving on engineered routes, and generic 'in transit' statuses hide exactly the stages where this mode's delays and costs live. This board's 8 statuses are drawn from how the mode actually operates.
About Project Cargo Move Tracker
The operating truth to internalise: Project cargo tracking is milestone-sparse but stakes-heavy: each piece may move once a month through surveyed routes, police escorts and crane windows, so a slipped milestone cascades through permits and equipment bookings priced in thousands per day. Keep one row per active piece, advance statuses as events land, and watch the counters: the stage where rows pile up is your bottleneck announcing itself. A quarter of logged journeys also yields the dataset every rate negotiation and transit-promise conversation should be built on.

Frequently asked questions
Why does one slipped project-cargo milestone cost so much?+
Because the next legs are booked equipment, not scheduled services: the heavy-haul trailer, the 500-ton crane, the police escort and the site outage window are all reserved against the plan. A vessel slipping four days can strand a crane booking that bills regardless. This board's value is making every stakeholder see the slip the day it happens, while rebooking windows still exist.
Which project cargo move milestones matter most?+
The cost-bearing and decision-bearing ones — for this mode, watch on water / transit (where dwell starts costing) and the transition into delivered to site (where the record closes). Rows that stall between those two stages are the ones worth a phone call today rather than a report next month.
Do I need an API integration for this?+
No — that's the design choice. API visibility platforms are excellent and expensive; this board costs nothing and runs on the notifications you already receive. Start here, learn which lanes genuinely need real-time feeds, and buy integration only where the manual cadence actually fails you.
Can my team use this board together?+
Via export/import workflow rather than live sync: the data is deliberately local-only for privacy. The pragmatic team pattern is one owner per board (dispatch owns it, everyone reads the morning CSV), or per-person boards split by client or lane. For true multi-user sync you'd graduate to a shared system — this is the zero-cost on-ramp.
