Auto-generate project timelines upon deal closure

Purpose

1. Automate generation of detailed project timelines in home remodeling when a deal is marked as "closed" in CRM systems, ensuring instant workflow creation, transparent scheduling, resource allocation, and stakeholder communication.

2. Purpose includes automating the mapping of project milestones, sequencing tasks, resource assignments, and notifying teams for expedited remodeling project kickoff, tracking, and updates.

3. Expands to automatedly updating or syncing timelines with client portals and project management dashboards, keeping all participants informed.

Trigger Conditions

1. Automation is triggered upon CRM opportunity status changing to “Closed Won” or deal confirmation event via webhook/API.

2. Automator listens for new project entry flagged as final sale or signed agreement in integrated business systems.

3. Trigger includes automatable conditions such as customer e-signature capture, final payment logged, or manual “project start” entry in sales process software.
