Alessandro Rodrigues
Business Performance Coordinator

I would say that the most valuable aspects of the software today are its ability to visualize the entire cascade, from strategic objectives all the way down to projects. This is new for the City’s departments, as we did not previously have a visualization tool that truly helps us understand why we are carrying out a project, what purpose it serves for the organization, and how it contributes to the expected outcomes of our strategic objectives.
