Timing

'You' submit 'your' personal list, right away,

• but what about everyone else?

How much time does the group have to submit their input?

TAPcollab includes a logical process-step timing solution:

• always set by group rule

• sometimes triggered by initial engagement rule

• sometimes by non-engagement rule

All possibility is handled though,

• so never does any process step get stuck in limbo.

New groups need not do anything to jump right in and get started -

• because with TAPcollab -

  • there's always best practice defaults in place.

  • Just understand that TAPgroups can always tweak these defaults -

    • to better suit their needs.

Every current step leading to the next step -

• has start and stop timestamps -

  • no matter what the group ultimately does.

Sometimes the process is just waiting for one person to do something to trigger the next step,

• until this logical event happens the group work process waits.

The default trigger is two (2) participants engage.

• Then the process-step end timestamp is established.

• This timestamp is very important because it tells the solution exactly when TAPavatars are to engage.
