More efficient STIP and TIP Management
Centralized MPO and DOT software for transportation projects, used by agencies across 29 states — and counting.
Transportation planners like yourself struggle with fragmented data, lengthy and disjointed manual review and approval processes, and pressure to meet strict compliance guidelines while also increasing transparency both within their agency and to the public. ProjectTracker solves these problems as a centralized, secure software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform tailored to manage even the most complex transportation programs with ease.

Speed Up Project Submission and Review
Email submissions and tedious manual review cycles delay approvals and increase the risk of oversight and data errors that affect funding. With ProjectTracker you can:
- Submit and amend TIP/STIP projects entirely online — no calls, spreadsheets, or meetings necessary.
- Distinct user roles with different data, revision, and approval capabilities.
- Quickly see project updates, highlighted inline, with automatic text summaries for reviewers
- Get email alerts notifying you and external planning partners of project changes.
Ensure Accuracy and Data Quality
Inconsistent, inaccurate data slows down review cycles and increases the risk of losing funding. ProjectTracker makes accurate data a breeze with built‑in spell check, required field validation, and alerts, so that data is much less likely to be inaccurate or incomplete.
Unlock Multi-agency Approvals
Multi‑agency approvals often lack clarity and result in bottlenecks. This is caused by disjointed databases and manual, conversation-based approval milestones. Hosting this process within ProjectTracker means:
- Adoption, Formal Amendment, and Admin Mod workflows are in one centralized, vetted location
- Planners have the ability to lock or reopen revision cycles during review to ensure data is only adjusted during specified time windows.
- Includes ability to open up revisions for public comment prior to approval
Track Every Change with Confidence
Most TIP management processes don’t have a simple way to track changes between versions. This causes issues with compliance, and in instances where there is incorrect information it’s difficult to tell when or why the errors took place. ProjectTracker fixes this with:
- Complete transparency with searchable project version and change history
- On‑screen highlights and text summaries for quick review of changes made between versions can save days of work tracking down changes.
- Full audit trail of dated project actions tied to individual users, so you always know who made which changes
Visualize Projects with Integrated GIS
GIS and project tracking are integral to each other but often require separate tools, slowing down review and causing consistent confusion. ProjectTracker integrates GIS capabilities within the same software as your project tracking:
- Import/export shapefiles to support external GIS workflows
- Easy to use “point and click” map interface
Stay Organized with Document Management
Scattered documentation increases compliance risks and slows down retrieval during planning or audit periods. With ProjectTracker you can:
- Upload, tag, and manage all documents by project and revision
- Ensure board approvals, funding memos, and attachments stay organized
Simple but Powerful Reporting
Manual reporting for TIP/STIP compliance consumes staff time and often results in data errors.
- Pre‑built reports for fiscal constraint, obligations, and public listings
- Customizable filters with export formatting options (CSV, PDF)
- API and Data Warehouse options for more complex reporting workflows with external software
Increase Public Engagement and Transparency
Transportation planners must meet strict compliance guidelines so that the public may understand and comment on the plans before construction begins. Such complex information is difficult to convey in a digestible way to the public. But ProjectTracker makes this easy with:
- A well-designed public site with searchable projects, interactive map (below), and comment forms that are integrated seamlessly into the project review workflow
- The site depicts complex data in easy-to-understand format
- Options for agencies to choose what information to publish and when
Adapt ProjectTracker to Your Unique Workflow with Flexible Configurations
Transportation agencies often purchase fully custom TIP/STIP management solutions in order to address the aspects of their process that make them unique. This is often more expensive and entails much less room for testing and proof-of-concept.
But EcoInteractive recognizes that not all transportation agencies are the same, which is why we often offer tailored solutions such as:
