Mount Laurel, NJ January 31, 2004 -- Monitoring the progress of litigation support projects has never been easier. LitBid™ has launched its free web-based project tracking tool, Project Watcher™. Project Watcher™ allows the buyer to check several aspects of the project including percent completed, updates, status changes and estimated completion dates.

Created for law firms and corporate legal departments, Project Watcher™ software facilitates communication between the buyer and their litigation support provider throughout a project. Sean Sturrock, Managing Partner and one of LitBid’s founders, states, “Since litigation support projects involve many components and are time sensitive by nature, LitBid™ created Project Watcher™ to help litigation support professionals monitor project status. Through Project Watcher™, buyers receive automated updates on their project, such as status changes and estimated completion dates.”

Buyers can conveniently monitor the progress of their projects online. Project Watcher™ provides a Gantt chart for monitoring timelines, along with a message board for posting important announcements or updates. Every aspect of the project’s progress is saved for future reference. LitBid™ offers an online tutorial and overview for law firms and corporate legal departments wishing to utilize the free service.
