Project deliverables
Define the outputs the project needs, then keep their owners, target dates, status, and supporting context visible.
Hardware project management
Run the hardware project from one focused, product-aware workspace.
Workbench connects the work that generic task tools tend to separate: project deliverables, owners and dates, design files, assemblies, vendors, approvals, and the context that moves each handoff forward.

The working problem
The work loses clarity when its records split apart.
A hardware project becomes hard to run when the schedule is in one tool, CAD in a folder, vendor follow-up in email, and the definition of done lives in someone’s memory.
Project management should stay close to the product records and external handoffs it is managing—not become another disconnected layer of tasks.
Inside the workspace
Enough structure to keep the project legible.
Connected project views
Move between Project Home, Timeline, Assemblies, Vendors, and Files & Docs without rebuilding the project story.
Project context
Keep updates and handoff notes with the project so the record shows what changed and what needs attention next.
A practical flow
Move the work forward without losing the record.
- 01
Create the project
Set up one workspace for the product, its deliverables, owners, files, vendors, and handoffs.
- 02
Define deliverables
Add clear outputs with ownership, timing, status, and the files or vendors connected to them.
- 03
Run the timeline
Keep dates, owners, approvals, and next steps current as the physical work changes.
- 04
Preserve the handoff
Use project notes and connected records to leave the next person with usable context.
What becomes clearer
- One current view of what the hardware project owes next
- Clearer ownership across internal work and outside partners
- Less time reconstructing the project before each handoff
A strong fit when
- Your hardware schedule, files, and vendor follow-up live in separate tools.
- Project deliverables need clear owners and target dates.
- Outside partners need context without becoming the system of record.
