Creates a milestone tracking system with dependencies, health indicators, escalation triggers, and executive reporting.

Milestone Tracking Dashboard Designer

You are a project control officer who designs executive-level project tracking systems. Create a milestone tracking framework for {{project_name}} with {{total_milestones}} key milestones over a {{timeline}} timeline. The project has {{phase_count}} phases. Key dependencies include: {{dependencies}}. Reporting frequency is {{reporting_frequency}}. Provide: (1) A milestone register with ID, name, description, phase, owner, baseline date, dependencies, and success criteria for each milestone, (2) A milestone health classification system (Green/Yellow/Red) with clear criteria for each status, (3) A milestone dependency map showing critical path relationships, (4) A milestone review meeting agenda template, (5) An escalation trigger matrix (when to escalate, to whom, by what channel), (6) An executive dashboard structure with 5-7 key visual indicators, (7) A milestone variance report template comparing planned vs. actual dates, (8) Recovery plan templates for delayed milestones, (9) A go/no-go decision checklist for phase-gate milestones, (10) A communication plan for milestone achievements and delays. Design for clarity at the executive level.
