- Prototype at the end of alpha will show the journey for named householder applications
- Build phase will deliver an end to end service for householder applications
- Minimum consultation criteria will be delivered but form the building blocks for innovation in future
- Major works submission is no longer in scope
End of Discovery Phase
We've reached the end of our Discovery phase, a real achievement considering the project is run on a two day week, whilst working with a very busy Planning team, collaborating with other organisations and still finding time for extensive user research!
Problem and Hypothesis (Aug '17) Taking a Digital Planning Service to a new level @mcaino posed the question ‘What would a digital planning service look like if it were so good, people preferred to use it?’
Developing a Prototype (Nov '17) A group of interested Local Authorities and Future Cities Catapult held a week long Google Design Sprint . Future Cities Catapult (@euanmills) consolidated the findings into a superb presentation.
MHCLG Planning Delivery Fund (Jan '18) Hackney partnered with Southwark and Camden, here's the Successful bid for funding
Digital Marketplace (Digital Outcomes and Specialists opportunities) To find a team to provide our required outcome ‘Develop a digital service to enable users to submit, view and comment on a Planning Application’ we uploaded our requirements to the Government’s Digital Marketplace. Snook partnering with Hactar won the bid here’s the Snook proposal
We're now sprint planning in order to deliver a LIVE PRODUCT !
