You're not missing the boat at all! Exactly what we've done. Our
Intranet/extranet contains a timesheet and a scheduler. Project managers
within the company create and manage projects using the scheduler by
specifying start date and deadline of projects. The scheduler then
calculates the deadlines for various stages of the project (Outline, Design
Development, etc....) Tasks can then be assigned in each stage to various
staff. Each staff member fills in a timesheet at the end of the weeek. The
combination of these 2 components allows us to produce stats telling us how
much time we are spending on projects compared with how much time we
allocated for them. Also how well deadlines get met and it also helps to
manage people's workload. All this was written in house using CF. We felt
that something like MS Project was too restrictive and needed something more
tailored to the way we operate.

Yeah, we did that here, and next month we are rolling out an application
that lets people send electronic letters to each other. You should see it!
Very impressive considering our core business is building roads.
All in all, I'd recommend your philosophy as a great approach to problem
solving;-)
