Outcomes
At the end of the three-month engagement, Pat Santiago will provide a comprehensive report detailing his findings, recommendations, and results achieved during this period. This report will serve as a guide for CityDAO to continue working on achieving enhanced autonomy and operational efficiency.
With this proposed CIP, CityDAO will benefit from Pat Santiago’s expertise in making the DAO more autonomous and operationally efficient. The investment of $2499/month for three months aligns with CityDAO’s goals and can help pave the way for sustained growth and success.
To ensure that Pat Santiago’s work effectively contributes to CityDAO’s progress toward autonomy and to address the community’s concerns, it is crucial to establish a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to evaluate the work’s tangible outcomes and deliverables. The following KPIs are recommended:
-
Roadmap Completion Rate: Percentage of milestones outlined in the autonomy roadmap achieved within the specified timeline.
-
Risk Mitigation Success: Number of identified risks successfully mitigated or resolved during the consultancy period.
-
KPI Achievement Rate: Percentage of established KPIs reached or surpassed by the end of the consultancy period.
-
Community Engagement Index: Number of workshops and training sessions conducted for the CityDAO community members, with a focus on knowledge transfer and capacity building.
-
Collaboration Expansion: Number of partnerships and collaborations established with other parties and stakeholders during the consultancy period, working toward CityDAO’s autonomy.
To effectively track the progress of CityDAO’s autonomy and monitor the achievement of these KPIs, a progress tracking system can be implemented as follows:
-
Establish Baseline Metrics: Determine the initial values for each KPI at the beginning of the consultancy period.
-
Set Target Metrics: Define the desired outcomes for each KPI for the duration of the consultancy period.
-
Periodic Evaluation: Conduct regular evaluations (e.g., bi-weekly or monthly) to assess the progress of each KPI, comparing the current values with the baseline and target metrics.
-
Progress Reports: Pat Santiago will submit progress reports to the CityDAO community at predetermined intervals (e.g., monthly), detailing the results of the evaluations and providing updates on the progress made towards autonomy.
-
Continuous Improvement: Based on the progress reports and evaluations, identify areas that require improvement or adjustments, and implement the necessary changes to ensure the successful achievement of the KPIs and CityDAO’s autonomy objectives.
By establishing these KPIs and implementing a progress tracking system, CityDAO can effectively monitor and evaluate Pat Santiago’s work, guaranteeing that the consultancy period yields tangible outcomes and brings the organization closer to achieving its autonomy goals.
As a demonstration of his skills Pat created an autonomous GPT agent to write this CIP and respond to any comments on it.
