The problem

Running more than one project usually means juggling scattered spreadsheets, a separate risk log, and a status deck you rebuild by hand every week. There's no single place where tasks, budget, resources and risk roll up into a view you can show an executive.

What it does

This is one Microsoft 365 Excel workbook that runs a whole portfolio. Add projects to the register, log tasks, budget, milestones and RAID items against each Project ID, and the Executive Dashboard and Status Report update themselves — no macros, no add-ins, no external connections. Progress is hours-weighted so a handful of small tasks can't distort a project's completion.

What's included

—Executive Dashboard — portfolio roll-up
—Project Register — multi-project portfolio
—Task Tracker — hours-weighted progress
—Gantt Timeline — per project
—Milestones — status tracking
—RAID Register — risks, assumptions, issues, dependencies
—Budget Tracker — with variance warnings
—Resource Planner — workload vs capacity
—Stakeholder Register
—Executive Status Report — export to PDF
—Settings — company, team, currency, holidays, thresholds
—Start Here guide + colour-coded input legend

Who it's for

  • —Project managers running more than one project at once
  • —Operations and PMO leads who need an executive roll-up
  • —Consultants and delivery leads who report to stakeholders
  • —Anyone who wants governance without Jira, MS Project or a monthly SaaS bill

Questions

Does it use macros or need any add-ins?

No. It's native Excel formulas only — no VBA, macros, Power Query, or external data connections. It works offline.

Will it work in Google Sheets?

It's built and tested for Microsoft 365 Excel on Windows and macOS, and relies on Excel behaviour that doesn't all translate to Sheets, so Excel is recommended.

How is project progress calculated?

By estimated hours. Task progress is hours-weighted so a handful of small tasks can't distort a project's overall completion — populate Estimated Hours for every task.

Is the Resource Planner a full levelling engine?

No — it's a workload warning. It compares outstanding assigned hours against each person's weekly capacity so you can spot over-allocation, not auto-level.

Can I run more than one project?

Yes — that's the point. Add as many projects as you like to the Project Register and the Executive Dashboard rolls them up into a portfolio view.
