IT Project Request Tracker in Google Sheets

In a fast-moving digital world, IT teams are constantly managing project requests, system updates, and software deployments. Without a structured tracking system, requests can easily get lost — leading to delays, miscommunication, and inefficiency. The IT Project Request Tracker in Google Sheets offers a smart, automated, and ready-to-use solution for managing IT requests from start to finish. 💻📊

Designed for IT managers, PMOs, and support teams, this tracker centralizes all project requests, monitors their progress, and provides real-time visibility into departmental and priority-based workloads.

Built entirely in Google Sheets, this dynamic tracker requires no coding or software installation — making it the perfect solution for teams seeking control, collaboration, and efficiency.

🔑 Key Features of the IT Project Request Tracker in Google Sheets

📋 Tracker Sheet Tab (Main Dashboard)
The heart of the system — the Tracker Sheet — serves as the command center for all IT project requests.

Charts Included:

• 🧾 Requests by Status: Shows how many requests are New, In Progress, Completed, or On Hold.

• 🚦 Requests by Priority Level: Categorizes requests as High, Medium, or Low — ideal for workload planning.

• 🏢 Requests by Department: Identifies which departments are generating the most IT requests.

• ✉️ Requests by Request Source: Tracks how requests were submitted (Email, Ticket System, Google Form, etc.).

• 👤 Requests by Requested By: Displays project volume per requester for better accountability.

All charts are auto-updated as new data is entered — giving managers an instant, data-driven overview of workloads and bottlenecks.

🔍 Search Sheet Tab (Smart Search & Filter)
Finding a specific request has never been easier.

You can search by keywords or fields — instantly filtering project data by:

• Project Name or Keyword

• Department

• Priority Level

• Status (New, Completed, On Hold)

• Requested By

Example Searches:

• “Priority = High” → Displays all high-priority tasks.

• “Status = Completed” → Lists all finished requests.

• “Department = Marketing” → Filters requests from the Marketing department.

This search feature helps generate quick reports without manual scrolling or sorting.
