| The Panonica Solution |
A holistic approach designed to enable collaboration among people with Expertise, Responsibility and Vision, giving them access to relevant Information and orchestrate Timely Decisions | | Decision commitees | Based on the premise that most enterprise decisions involve groups of people, Panonica allows an administrator to define decision committees such as an Executive Committee, a Product Launch committee…Committees are defined in a very simple way by indicating who the members are, their authorization levels and who can submit decision requests to the committee. | Additionally, the composition of Committees can be further fine-tuned by defining roles for all or some of the members. For example, in an operational committee, multiple Financial Controllers can be identified and the decision workload can be dispatched to reflect their respective organizational responsibilities by department, project, etc. | For each Panonica user, a list of decisions to be made is compiled according to his or her committee membership. |  | Decision methodology | In Panonica, decision requests are created by describing the decision topic and assembling a set of possible decision outcomes. A decision method is selected to best fit the situation and at present, 3 different methods are available: Single choice of outcome Multiple possible outcomes Outcome ranking |  | Information within decision context | | By capturing individual decisions, Panonica creates a dynamic context where information becomes very effective. For example, a document describing the Corporate Tax laws in Canada is very helpful when deciding on acquiring a Canadian company while the same document sent through e-mail or stored in a document management system is very hard to put and keep in an adequate context. |  | | Moreover, Panonica captures a snapshot of the associated documentation and archives it along with the rest of decision information to allow for a better future understanding of the decision. | | Decision tasks | Panonica allows the creation and management of Decision-related tasks. This is important to capture action items to be performed before the decision takes place or as a result of such a decision. Users in charge of the tasks are notified and can give a status of completion that will be captured and archived with the rest of the information. |  | Progress and Status report | The Decision Status page shows what other committee members have decided along with their comments. The ability to review this information leads to an accelerated convergence where affinities with opinion leaders create clear movement towards a near consensus. A single click allows the users to express their agreement with an already expressed opinion. |  | A  also gives a quick status on the timing of the decision and allows the users to visually prioritize their |
