Work backwards from the opening date.
A merchant's opening date sets every date behind it. Paste your opening dates below and take the back-plan away — which units are already past the point where the handover had to happen, and which still have room.
No account, no email, nothing uploaded. The arithmetic runs in this page, on your machine; there is no server behind this form to send anything to.
The rule this uses
Base-build handover has to complete six months before the merchant opens — that is the fit-out window a retail merchant needs, and it is the date the whole construction programme is really being judged against. The recommended date adds a three-month buffer, because handover dates move and opening dates do not.
Two published dates, no invented stage durations. Inside Handoverr the buffer stops being a rule of thumb: it is measured against the handovers your own estate has already completed, so the figure is yours rather than a convention.

Every unit, one line
The whole estate on one screen, each unit at its stage in that chain, with the dates that stage was due and actually met.
What is about to be lost
Exceptions are stated as the opening they put at risk and the days they are late by — never as a neutral "pending" that nobody acts on.
A reason to open it on a Tuesday
What moved since you last looked, and every date falling due inside the week — so the board is useful between milestones, not just at them.
See it on your own estate
The live dashboards run on real merchant data, so they sit behind an access list — which is exactly why this page does not. Send the workbook you already keep and you get your own estate back on the board, not a demo of somebody else's.
