What are the innovative aspects of our CRISI Application?
Evolving during the application process
The grant makes research and market development profitable
Except for initial seed money the project becomes self-funding,
What is our mission?
Scale industrial change as quickly as possible per our definition of desired industrial change and world outcomes
Channel the diverse interests of the marketplace to our specific and focused services and products
Replicate our core services and products across all possible initiatives that fit our model
Self-fund as much as possible to maintain leadership, our ethics and timeline
Spend minimal time talking about how to make change and maximum time engaged in the process of making change by asking questions and reforming goals based on the answers
Submit the most powerful, effective CRISI Grant application ever, a new paradigm for a public-dollar funding application.
Have as much fun and ease as we can muster.
Create an environment where participants have their own experience of fun and ease.
Get a CRISI Grant to develop and operate collaborative development services for the OTM project
POME
IntelliSynthesis
Discuto
Possible Names
Silk Network?
POME
IntelliSynthesis
The first step in becoming the core knowledge base that the transportation industry uses to organize itself.
Offering to convene and facilitate the multistakeholder, multijurisdictional, multi-sector Collaborative Infrastructure Development.
What do we think the CRISI decision makers are looking for that we can deliver?
Co-fund capital projects
Willing to support innovation and collaboration services on behalf of broad vision and diverse project development
In terms of collaboration projects what do we want to do over the next year?
Demonstrate and accelerate the ongoing nature of market development via meeting-of-the-minds forums and KBs
Specifically via tokens and blockchains establish new forms of monetization and enumeration for collaboration between entities.
What, if anything, needs to change about our forum production strategy and process?
More robust, aggressive organizing goals
How can the CRISI grant and our work meet?
We do events for projects CRISI wants to see developed ASAP
Related to both goals, where do we get the $200K for the CRISI grant
Gain startup capital of $500K to commence producing forums, follow-up KBs, media products and commence collaboration software development. Possibly include consulting opportunities outside the forum model
Use $200K of the star-up funds as the 20% contribution to the CRISI grant
Jeff have established contact with a second venture source
First venture source, YCombinator application needs to be finished ASAP
How can OTM play into CRISI and OTNA work plans/initiatives
Use our start-up business model to produce forums and stakeholder KB for OTM and NAFF
OTM can contribute $200K as well
What is the new business model that we are inventing?
Research and market development as profit centers versus cost centers
Those who can self-fund will remain standing in the challenging currents of change
Enrolling paying sponsors by engaging in market place organizing with them previous to asking for sponsorship
Demonstrate the business model by practicing it immediately
Herding cats for fun and profit
Not directly a part of the CRISI grant
Use market development facilitation and organizing, forum production, knowledge management environments and development of new collaboration tools to generate subscriptions and sales
The forums are a self-funding, profitable lead generation and research tool. They seed further involvement of the stakeholders
How do you earn your return from sharing and scaling, not hoarding, protecting, or firewalling?
We collect and act on non-proprietary information
By identifying the goals, challenges and solutions for whole industries and across all sectors
Revitalization of the 5th estate concept
Establish a very proactive network of professional stakeholder advisory groups within unique industry segments
Establish a new definition of the fifth estate that recognizes the role of vast networks of linked advisory groups across the seven sectors of society that are conceived to address wicked problems.
What is our deal (Jeff and Michael)?
Does not include consulting work, that belongs to SRF
What is the POME business model
Cross sector, sponsor funded forums that commence with iterative development of 10 goals
Knowledge base development by staff facilitators based on goal development
A version of the KB for professional stakeholders
Utilizing the data labels within the KB to develop market organizing/collaboration oriented technology tools
Industry Acceleration Platforms (market development ontology servers)
Trained small natural language models
Industry specific token and blockchain platorms
Eventually establishing POMES as operating systems for market development of whole industries
Freight Management POME
Intercity Rail POME
Agriculture Nutrient Management POME
Micro Grid POME
Healthcare POME
Education POME
Are we open to not having limits on the framework within which we consider what to invent?
Yes, the OTM funded CRISI grant is a foundation element of the larger business opportunity and vision
Yes, include non-industrial markets, and look at using the same model for issue development
What personal concerns and goals does Jeff want to ensure are instilled in what we are doing?
We move fast to establish the business model in civil infrastructure markets to gain leadership around the concept of an industry operating system
That the goals of each forum are robust enough such that participants get excited and can see the impact on their industry.
Specific goals, market changing goals, flags in the sand
What personal concerns and goals does Michael want to ensure are instilled in what we are doing?
Install the IntelliSynthesis dialogue methodology at the heart of the POME, whatever we call it, rather than what is available on the Internet for interacting.
Use the first two rounds of an IntelliSynthesis process to enroll professional stakeholders in the other business services.
Establish IntelliSysthesis as a legimate citation source by publishing summaries of IntelliSynthesis events in industry publications and our own media products
By creating a robust market/issue development citation source we open up our work to being referenced in other research and Wikipedia
What does the CRISI Grant look like?
What is our best eligible project option under the CRISI grant?
“Any project necessary to enhance multimodal connections or facilitate service integration between rail and other modes”
“Research, development, and testing to advance and facilitate innovative rail projects”
Which entity is the ideal application partner?
The state of Mississippi
Bolivar County
Port of Rosedale
Port of Greenville
All four
Other partners?
University Transportation Center(s) to use a small group of their student team as facilitators
Transportation Board volunteer coordinating teams used as facilitators
Discuto
IntelliSynthesis
SRF as facilitation managers
Deliverables
Put a stake in the sand with ten goals for Bolivar County freight and rail development
Derived from the Rosedale Report
Is either the GTR or the CAGY rebuild on the goal list
Use our team of facilitators to reach out to OTM stakeholders for the purpose of organizing a series of iterative Zoom forums on the ten goals
Use the Internal OTM KB as the central archive of goal progress
Maintain an OTM Stakeholder KB
A MediaWiki environment

Within the CRISI Grant goals federal, state and local governments are simply stakeholders
Who owns the ongoing organizing process?
An independent non-profit with a board
This entity would own the KBs
What about applying to develop the guidelines for a new state rail plan design?

Subject: RE: Questions about the BCA for CRISI Grants
Hello, Jordyn –
Yes. For Track 1 projects, a qualitative BCA will suffice (as opposed to a traditional, quantitative BCA), since those projects are in the planning stage and it is near impossible for the applicants to assign values to their project benefits and costs. The qualitative BCA should describe the potential benefits (focusing on the benefits of the planning project, not the benefits if built/constructed) and costs (i.e., project budget details such as explanation of the various tasks, etc.) in great detail. The BCA should be in a PDF or MS Word doc, and there is no min./max. page count requirement.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Marc Dixon
