    Hi @Dave.!

    It sounds like you're working towards a fairly complex solution, but I believe it’s something you can build using Smartsheet’s features. As a starting point, I recommend checking out our template gallery here: Template Gallery. There might already be a structure that fits your needs or can be easily adapted.

    Here are a couple of useful resources to get started:

    You might also want to explore Smartsheet's Control Center, which is great for managing projects and portfolios at scale. It helps with automation and reporting, giving you the visibility you're looking for. Here’s more information on that: Control Center.

    If you don’t find a solution here or within the community, our Implementation Team can assist with more tailored help: Contact Implementation Services.

    Hope this points you in the right direction!

    Cheers,
    Isaac.
