Im hoping some of you can help me in my quest for some software to assist with my work streams. I am unsure if it is Project or Task Management software that will suit my needs.

I basically need something in which I can document various actions / tasks that need to be completed and in a particular order. I would ideally like it were I can pull the project back up each year with the same tasks or set of instructions can be completed.

An example of this is setting up a particular residential training course which we do every year. I have a list of actions from booking accommodation and catering to producing the individual content and even collecting a key the week before. Most of these items are listed under a heading of "6 weeks before" and so on, so that I know I need to be completing these items at the various stages or weeks before.

Some may say, why don't I just document or create a list in word, but with so many applications about, there must be one in which I can make use of? Happy to pay for the right software but didn't want to spend £100s. Syncing across Macs would be great. If It came with iPhone app, that would be and advantage but not compulsary?

I have looked at "Things" which looks a little expensive for what it is, although I suspect it does far more than I have yet realised.

Any help, as always would be appreciated.
