Project Workbook & Budget Tracker

If you're looking for a RAID log to use on your projects, this is the one I've used for years. It's RAID++ as it includes a whole host of extra tabs in the spreadsheet so you can use one file for all your project tracking.

Everything you need to start tracking your project today. This product includes two spreadsheets. One Excel spreadsheet made up of:

• High level project schedule/plan
• Action Log
• Change Log
• Decision Log
• Dependencies Log
• Issues Log
• Risk Log
• Milestone Tracker
• Communications Calendar
• Project Contacts List

Plus a separate Excel spreadsheet for managing your project budget, with worksheets enabling you to track budgeted and actual project costs, purchase orders and invoices.

You also get a 5-page guide to using RAID logs on your project which includes a bonus 20-minute video interview. This will help you understand the principles behind why you should track these things on your project and explain how and when to update your RAID log.

How to find your files:

This has happened to me multiple times: I download something and then can't find it on my computer! Check the Downloads folder (under My Computer). Or use Explorer to search for the name of the file you just downloaded. Sometimes you can also see the file in your browser download history.
