The Data Collaborative Team has evolved and grown over the years. The project began with just Deepti Panjabi and consultants. Eventually she developed a team that included the four people represented below. Each position below will include the following:
The value we see in providing this information is that you can better understand how to set up a future team and the experience that we had when developing the project. We hope the additional job description and experience will help in the selection process in building a new team when replicating the Data Collaborative model.
Below, is a Google Sheets document that can help project cost and number of staff needed to implement the Data Collaborative model. The document allows for the user to customize for two different organization types and project phases. The tabs in the spreadsheet are progressive in regards to timeline from left to right.
The first four tabs (Exploratory + Installation, Initial Implementation, Full Implementation, and Both/Constant) are all detailed distribution of hours based on the four roles described in detail above. The hours are based on the Data Collaborative's best prediction of work and past experience. The Distribution of Hours tab is where the different phases will aggregate.
