Tangible outcomes – the prototype

What it isn’t:

-Fully tested-Totally robust / secure-Commercial Product

What it is:

Proof of conceptWorking version to test in useBasic functionalityUsing email sub system“WIP” – ready for further development

Page 12: Catalyst Relay 2012 Midland - Patchworks   relay -final

Relax, It is Prototype!• A prototype is a primitive form of a system built to

test an idea • It is not a final working product• It is not the only outcome of the Sprint. There are

several intangible outcomes

What we could have done better: the ‘evaluation’ of the prototype & its process– Q: how can we best capture the ‘value’ of what we

‘do’, design & build?

Page 13: Catalyst Relay 2012 Midland - Patchworks   relay -final

Trust us, There Will Be at Least One.

We have learned to trust each other, each other skills and the importance of everybody’s input before outputs (and prototypes…)

• What could we have done better? Use creative methods to explore the team needs/skills/aspirations earlier in the project.

• Q: What is the best way to get to know each other and build trust? Can the same creative methods be used with different groups?

Less Rush! Plan to Adapt to the Unexpected

Agreeing on a road map, milestones and ‘safety checks’ together & in advance is key. It makes dealing with devilish details and unexpected accidents more efficiently.

• What could we have done better? Spend more time reflecting on how both outputs and processes matched different peoples needs and the project brief.

• Q: How should decisions be made in a citizen-led innovation project?

Page 15: Catalyst Relay 2012 Midland - Patchworks   relay -final

Questions for Breakout Groups:

1. How does innovation happen? Should it be ‘facilitated’? How can it be facilitated?

2. How can evaluation be built in into the process? How can we evaluate both tangible (e.g. prototype) and intangible (e.g. process) ‘outcomes’?

3. Is there a silver bullet for trust? What is the best way to get to know diverse participants and build trust? Do different groups respond better to different approaches?

4. What does ‘citizen-led’ research really mean? How should decisions be made in a citizen-led innovation project?
