1. Configure SayPro Automation System
Integrated Dashboards & Data Inputs
- Connect Google Sheets or Airtable to collect monthly updates from research teams.
- Create fields for:
- Study title
- Objectives (e.g., “air sensor deployment”, “cohort survey completion”)
- Milestones (planned and actual dates)
- Progress percent (0–100%)
- Outcomes/results
- Status tags (On track / At risk / Completed)
Automate Data Updates
- Use Zapier or Make (formerly Integromat) to:
- Auto-populate new publication data from RSS feeds, Google Scholar, or internal inputs.
- Send monthly forms (via Typeform/Jotform) to researchers and have submissions update the database automatically.
📊 2. Set Up Quarterly Tracking Metrics
Define key indicators (KPIs) for each study:
- Planned vs Actual Milestones (dates)
- Percent Complete
- Objectives Achieved (count or %)
- Notable Outputs (e.g., papers, presentations, sensor kits installed)
These should be in the dashboard and tracked month-to-month.
📈 3. Generate Automated Quarterly Reports
Use dashboard automation to:
- Aggregate completed vs pending objectives.
- Calculate overall study progress.
- Highlight key results and delays.
- Identify studies < 70% complete (flagged as “At risk”).
Design a visual quarterly report comprising:
- Project progress graphs
- Lists of objectives met or in progress
- Completed outcomes with links
- Roadblocks with assigned actions
🗓 4. Quarterly Review Workflow
- Mid-Quarter: System sends summary alert to the project lead for review.
- End-of-Quarter:
- Data finalization (system lock on progress until reviewed)
- Q‑Quarter status generated and sent to:
- SayPro internal team
- Community newsletter
- Website “Research Dashboard” tab
- Feedback Loop: Use embedded comments or forms to collect reviewer input (Next steps, support needs).
🚀 5. Integrate with SayPro’s Public Platform
- Embed live-version progress bars or charts on the SayPro website.
- Auto-generate a “Quarterly Highlights” PDF for download.
- Send auto-published blog posts or newsletter summaries of the quarterly report.
