21. Guidelines For Developing Our Solution
1) If we’re going to tackle this problem, let’s build a single solution for all Group Live
use cases.
2) There isn’t one ideal way to track attendance for all use cases. Our solution would
need to be flexible.
3) Ease of use for attendees is CRUCIAL. Let’s digitally replicate the processes that are
already in place, that attendees are used to.
4) Integration with LMS / AMS / Compliance tools increases the value exponentially in
terms of time saved
