SECTION 3 OUR SMART VEGAS APPROACH

EVALUATING Ideas Our Smart Vegas team collectively reviews potential initiatives by following a set review process. This collaborative interaction between the Executive Technology and Innovation Steering Committee, Innovation Team and Interdepartmental Committee is characterized by six primary tasks.

1

Submit. IT receives all proposals for Smart Vegas initiatives.

2

Review. IT coordinates with relevant IC members to obtain guidelines for evaluation.

3

Advise. IC members can advise IT during the evaluation process, but IT retains sole responsibility of proposal evaluations.

4

Recommend. IT recommends proposals to the ETISC. IT must submit a formal evaluation with supporting documentation, including input from affected city agencies/departments, for all potential project implementations.
