Consultant demos a strategic‑plan dashboard; council asks about implementation and staff access
Summary
Representatives from Inviso outlined a centralized dashboard and automated reporting for tracking Seat Pleasant’s strategic plan, saying implementation typically takes 8–14 weeks and noting the option to give council direct access to run reports.
Lawrence Matthews, senior account executive at Inviso, and a colleague described a centralized strategic‑management platform that would pull strategic plans, projects and KPIs into a single public and staff‑facing dashboard. “All your plans cannot only be centrally tracked, they can also be integrated with each other,” Matthews said, describing how the tool can connect strategic initiatives to projects and performance measures.
Matthews and a staff member called AB said the platform supports automated executive summaries and accessibility features, and that it includes QR‑code links residents can scan to get project updates. AB told the council that the platform can produce narrative executive summaries using AI to surface delays and progress, while staff would retain final control over content.
Council members asked how many Inviso customers remain active and whether the platform can be configured so council members run reports directly or receive scheduled reports. Matthews said Inviso serves an active customer base and that cities can choose whether council has direct access or receives scheduled reports. He estimated implementation would take “8 to 14 weeks,” with a weekly implementation meeting cadence that includes training and capacity building.
Several council members also raised whether the planned dashboard could be integrated into the city app and how QR codes would be updated for recurring events. Inviso said QR codes can be dynamic so backend content updates without replacing the physical code, and staff said they would explore whether the dashboard can be embedded in the city app.
No procurement decision was taken; council members thanked the presenters and asked staff to follow up with links to live examples and additional cost and implementation detail.
