Roadmap

OVERVIEW

The Ágoras Framework Roadmap is a visual and objective guide that points out the paths to be taken for planning and a high-level perspective view for the delivery of campaign results. It is coordinated and managed by the CSL in parallel with the CM and any strategic change is subject to the criteria of both.

Like the Team Structure, the Roadmap is designed following the vision of PSC Performance on a map that has a starting point and an end point through 3 Laps that represent the 3 most important phases for the planning of the electoral campaign: Research, Planning and Action.

The total time expressed in the Roadmap is equivalent to the total time from the beginning of the assembly of the campaign until the day of the election "E-Day". Following a perspective of a high strategic level and by relevance of each one of the phases, the times are managed as follows: 25% of the total for Q1 (Research and Planning) and the remaining 75% for Q2 and Q3 (Action).<
For greater effectiveness of the campaign management processes, the delegation of functions is necessary and this consists of assigning tasks to each of the team members to be executed permanently or temporarily. Each of these tasks are listed in a document called PS LOG.

As mentioned above, while strongly linked, PSC Performance is not the same as campaign performance. The first contributes to optimizing the performance of the members of one or more teams, and the second comprises the performance of the campaign as a whole. Due to the latter, the results are measured in units of time, so that values are obtained that allow monitoring both performance and yield.

Once the PS LOG is documented, the tasks are graphed on the Roadmap according to the effort that each of them requires. The non-conclusion or delay in the execution of a task generates a delay that negatively impacts the planning times and delivery of results. The delay impacts the later phases by adding more tasks to execute in less time. This is called DELTA and is measured at the end of Q1 and Q2.

VALUES FOR DELTA:

  • 0 = Execution of tasks on time, organized and without pending.

  • -1 = Execution of tasks out of time. The remaining time proportional impacts the next phase.

  • -2 = Some tasks were not executed and pending. The proportional amount of remaining time impacts the next phase, generating more effort with less time.

  • -3 = None of the tasks were executed and 100% pending. The total effort time of one phase impacts the next one, generating more effort with less time. Requires parallel validation of PSC Performance.

DEFINITIONS

FORMATION: It is the starting point before the start of the campaign.
PS LOG: List of tasks to be developed by team members.
Q1,Q2,Q3: It is the proportional time measurement that divides the campaign.
PITS: Stopping point for monitoring evolution and campaign adjustments where the whole team participates. Once a week is recommended and the execution time is subject to the criteria of the CSL.
DELTA: Represents the difference in delay times between the Qs.
CSR: Campaign Sprint Race, are the last 7 days of the week prior to the election where there are no Pits.
E-DAY: Election Day
