Purpose-Built Phase Gate Management

Control Every
Gate. Every
Project.

Know which projects are slipping before the next gate review.

Own it. No software subscription. No complexity.

Phase Gate Manager gives manufacturing leadership visibility and control before problems become surprises. Purpose-built for mid-market manufacturing, pharma, defense, and construction — by someone who spent years running gate reviews in spreadsheets and got tired of it. One purchase. Your infrastructure. Yours forever.

Built by someone who worked the floor before running the program — 30+ years spanning production, quality engineering, and program management at two Fortune 500 manufacturers.

Who It's For

Built For Teams That
Manage Complex Products

If any of these sound like your Monday morning, Phase Gate Manager was built for you.

Engineering
Know what is actually ready for the next gate — not what the slide deck says is ready.
Quality
Make sure evidence and approvals can't be skipped, and the problem record lives with the program that created it.
Program Management
See every program, milestone, and risk in one place instead of a folder of individual spreadsheets.
Leadership
Know which programs need attention before the review — and stop asking for a different report every week.

What PGM Replaces

Seven Places Your Program
Data Lives Today

Most teams don't have a program management system. They have a collection of habits. Each one works until someone is on vacation, a date moves, or leadership asks a question nobody can answer from memory.

Today
  • Excel trackers — one per program manager
  • PowerPoint gate reviews rebuilt every cycle
  • Approvals buried in email threads
  • Quality problems tracked in a separate tool
  • Status reports assembled by hand every Monday
  • Baselines that quietly disappear when dates move
  • Tribal knowledge that leaves when people do

With Phase Gate Manager
One controlled
program management
system.

Gates, approvals, baselines, problems, and reporting in one place — with an audit trail that shows who moved what, and when. Nothing to reconcile. Nothing to rebuild.

Platform Capabilities

Built For The Way
Project Teams Actually Work

Every capability below exists to answer one question a manufacturing leader actually asks. The feature is the mechanism. The outcome is the point.

Visual Gantt Timeline
See Every Program On One Screen
Project-per-row Gantt with live milestone tracking, an auto-scrolling today line, and at-a-glance gate status across the whole portfolio. No more opening twelve spreadsheets to find the one that's late.
Phase Gate Enforcement
Stop Approving Gates On Incomplete Evidence
Structured milestone gates from first approval through market launch. Every gate has defined deliverables, a named approver, and a timestamped decision — so "we thought it was done" stops being a root cause.
Executive Reporting
Walk Into Monday's Review Already Prepared
Clean, print-ready program reports with status pills, milestone history, and open issues — generated from the live data, not rebuilt by hand the night before.
Problem Tracking
Don't Let Project Problems Live In A Different System
Open issues and action items tied directly to the milestone that created them. Every problem has an owner, a due date, and a resolution path — alongside the program, not in a separate quality tool.
Role-Based Access
The Right People See The Right Things
Five access levels — Super Admin, Site Admin, Program Manager, Contributor, and Read Only — enforced by database row-level security. Enterprise-grade control without enterprise setup.
Your Infrastructure
Your Data. Your Infrastructure. Your Software.
Buy once and run it on your own Cloudflare and Supabase accounts. You pay those providers directly at their standard rates; we never host your data and never take a cut. If you ever stop working with us, you keep your data, your install, and your audit trail.

Why teams switch

Where most project tools
fall short

The friction is always the same. Tools that take months to learn, bills that climb every year, and dashboards that bury the one thing you needed to see. Phase Gate Manager was built against each of them.

The problem

Weeks to learn. Months before anyone actually adopts it.

→
Phase Gate Manager

Up and running within a few business days. The complexity stays quietly in the background.

The problem

Per-seat pricing that climbs at every renewal — and surprises at contract time.

→
Phase Gate Manager

One published price. Buy it once and own it — no renewal anxiety.

The problem

Dates and decisions change, and there's no record of who moved what.

→
Phase Gate Manager

Every gate decision timestamped and immutable. Accountability that holds up in an audit.

The problem

Alerts for everything, signal for nothing — until the inbox gets muted.

→
Phase Gate Manager

Notifications you configure — the ones that matter, not a firehose.

The problem

Your program data living on someone else's servers, under their terms.

→
Phase Gate Manager

Runs on your own infrastructure. The data is yours, outright.

Honest Comparison

What You Were Probably
Using Before.

Spreadsheets. Generic project management software. Enterprise PPM platforms. Single-user planning tools. Each comes with real tradeoffs — and a real reason teams come to us.

Capabilities

The Way Program Management
Should Have Worked
All Along.

Phase gate workflow, gate approvals, and milestone accountability built in — not bolted onto a generic task tracker. Risk and change management, a quality toolkit, and portfolio visibility that reads at a glance.

Pricing

One-Time Purchase. Yours Forever.

Perpetual license. No recurring software subscription. Your only ongoing cost is your own Supabase and Cloudflare accounts, paid to them at their published rates — not to us. Your organization owns its data and its deployment; we're not trying to become a line item that grows every year.

Know your total software cost before you buy.

Built On Trust

Security That Holds Up
To Scrutiny.

Your data lives on your Supabase project, behind your Cloudflare zone. We don't host it, and we can't lock you out of it. SOC 2 Type 2 infrastructure, multi-factor authentication, continuous monitoring, and annual penetration testing by Astra — details for your IT team on the security page.
