Manage projects, coordinate teams, and master your company with Basecamp

Managing a cookware launch

A cookware launch depends on an overseas foundry, ocean freight, and retail partners all hitting their dates. Basecamp keeps production, shipping, and launch readiness in one place, so the team spots risks early.

Ironleaf tracks the first production run in To-dos, keeps foundry photos in Docs & Files, and moves launch work from at risk to ready on a Card Table. Foundry and freight emails come in through , the Calendar holds the container sailing, and the Message Board shares where the launch stands.
