You can build a validated Track Record for each Showcase, generating certifications
that will build trust in your solutions and information.
Whilst publication of Showcases is free, Project Validation is a premium service
on Citymart.com.
1- Create a Showcase
Access “My Citymart.com” to create a Showcase for each of you solutions at no cost.
2- You Create the Projects that make up your Track Record
Once your Showcase is complete, you can build the Track Record by adding Projects.
These can be completed or live Projects at any stage from Idea to Full Deployment.
Next to the basic facts, you can add multimedia, documents, reports.
3- You access your activation plan.
4- You Invite Stakeholders to Your Project
A Stakeholder can be anyone involved in making the project happen, from your internal
team members, to your partners, clients and even users. It is a great way to recognize
those that supported the realization and gives them a space to share experiences.
Stakeholders are in full control of their privacy and visibility.
5- Stakeholders Validate Facts Online in Minutes
Each Stakeholder, upon accepting your invitation, makes a declaration on whether they have a Conflict of Interest
Citymart.com defines a "Conflict of Interest" as a set of circumstances that creates a risk that professional judgment (as a Stakeholder or a Juror) could be influenced by any other competing personal or financial interests.
A conflict of interest exists even when this interest would not necessarily influence the juror or stakeholder in their judgement, but could result in the juror or stakeholder’s objectivity being questioned by others.
By default, employees of the Showcase company will always be considered to have a conflict of interest, as will employees of partner organisations (such as joint venture partners, contractors, resellers or licensees) and/or competitors.
A client is not considered to have a conflict of interest with the Showcase company just by virtue of being a client. However, in some cases, a client may have a “conflict of interest” as a result of other personal or financial interests in the Showcase company or its partners/competitors.
There are also many other types of situations that can create a conflict of interest. If you are interested in learning more about Conflict of Interest, we recommend the following readings:
in the Showcase or not to identify those that are independent and can therefore validate the facts. For example, your employees have conflicts of interest because they dependent on the project and should not validate, whilst the project managers in city hall are not.
6- We Issue a Validation Certificate
Once three or more Stakeholders have validated the basic facts of your Project (Title,
Description, Stage) we will issue a Validation Certificate. This consists of two
parts: a. Your Project will now appear in the Track Record of your Showcase listing
the validated facts, providing access to the multimedia assets and documents, and
listing the Stakeholders in line with their privacy settings (by default this is
limited to Role and Organisation). b. The Certificate contains the facts that were
validated and the identities of the participating Stakeholders. This certificate
is not public and can only be accessed by entering the ID and PIN Code.
7- Your Clients Access Your Certificate Online
You are in full control as to who can have access to your Certificate, and users
on Citymart.com may request access from you. You can share the Certification ID
and PIN with your clients in tender documents, emails or otherwise, which they can
enter at Citymart.com.
