An overview of all of the projects you oversee. You can click into  each individual innovator project page, leave feedback, and track an  innovator’s progress. You can also see all of the reported wins and barriers across all of  the innovators in your group.

You see the 1) velocity score, 2) % blocked, and 3) # of asks.
The velocity score is an aggregate metric indicating “how fast” an innovator is progressing. The % blocked is determined by the number of barriers and their reported impact (low, medium, high, debilitating). Where debilitating impact means the project is 50% blocked. High impact equals 25% and low impact equals10%. Innovation teams that have high % blocked may need more assistance than others. The # of asks indicate how many outstanding requests for help an innovator has reported.

This is a comprehensive update project managers submit, including  every innovations’ project update submissions in your group.

Innovators submit their progress updates every two weeks, which means project managers submit their group updates every two weeks. The deadline for the innovator progress update is biweekly on Tuesdays at 2300 CT. The group survey opens then and closes on Thursday at 1200 CT.

You will still check out their update for them when going through the group update. You may want to communicate with innovators that accurate updates will not be reflected in the group update if they fail to submit their innovator update.

Your project page is the hub for your innovation in Productable. This is where you submit progress updates to managers; track wins, barriers, and asks

A progress update is a <5-minute questionnaire that you fill out in the Productable. It asks you questions about your progress made on particular Decision Criteria, wins you’d like to report as well as barriers impeding progress and associated asks for project managers to help you overcome barriers. The results from each progress update are visible on your project page and communicated through a number of metrics

Innovators are expected to submit progress updates once every two weeks. The window to submit and updates opens on Thursday morning and closes the following Tuesday evening at 2300 CT

Any sort of progress that feels good! It is a step in the right direction. Your wins congregate on your project page and are visible to all of the other innovators and project managers in your organization. We are celebrating your milestones with you!

Something that gets in your way to accessing / achieving an objective. You can report barriers in your progress updates, indicate a particular theme of the barrier (finance, IT, policy etc), and also indicate which barriers you are still facing that were reported in previous progress updates.

A request for assistance in helping you overcome a barrier and/or for funding.  You can tie an ask to a barrier when you submit your progress update, informing one or more of your project managers that you could use some help.

A framework determined by your organization that consists of 1-5  innovation phases. Each phase contains 3-4 Decision Criteria that innovators  must confidently meet to progress to the next innovation phase. Watch this video for more detail.

These are objectives an innovator must confidently meet by providing necessary supporting evidence that validates success or confidence in a criteria. Watch this video for more detail.

There are a number of exercises in Productable known as “pitch sections” that prompt you to input data associated with each Decision Criteria. You can also email workshops@beproductable.com to schedule a session with Productable’s innovation experts for custom support. Watch this video for more detail.

Authenticators are applications that serve several purposes for Android and iOS devices. They're mainly used for two types of authentication, known as multi-factor authentication (MFA) and multi-step authentication (MSA).
The authenticator generates a code that you need to enter every time that you logon to your Productable account. The code changes every 30 seconds, can only be used once, and is unguessable.

The top reason to use a Mobile Authenticator is: security. The Department of Defense requires external platforms to be highly secure environments. With applications moving to the cloud and providing users with streamlined access to everything, everywhere, security is the top concern for authentication. Many solutions address the problem of password fatigue through a convenient single sign-on solution or something like a password vault.  However, few solutions adequately address the issue of secure access.

Productable  allows three different mobile authenticator applications, however, you only  need to install one. You can find the links to install below:
●    FreeOTP
○    Android App Store download
○     iOS App Store download
‍●    Google Authenticator
○     Android download
○     iOS App Store download
‍●    Authy
○     Android App Store download
‍○      iOS App Store download

1. Open your mobile  authenticator
2. Scan the desktop QR Code provided on the setup screen
3. Quickly, enter the one-time code provided in the app (nospaces). Code expires within 30 seconds.
4. Name your authenticator device
5. Click “Submit” to complete setup
6. You’re all set! Now you should be able to access Productable. Email support@beproductable.com if you are still having issues at this point.
