    You can monitor the progress of a running/active contest through the cockpit. In general the following management actions are available:

    You can extend the contest deadline if more time is needed.

    You can increase the prize for the contest to attract more talent to work for you.

    You can re-launch a contest that had no submissions with new information or better requirements.

    You can cancel a contest that is no longer needed or needs to be abandoned.

    You can post in the contest forums as read feedback from the competitors about the contents as well. This is quite important as it offers the best way to see how well a project is doing.

    In a nutshell copilots make sure that the client’s projects get done on time and within budget. Because copilots are respected members of the community and have a proven track record they have the necessary skills and clout to get things organized, analyzed, and delivered.

    The most important aspect of having a copilot is that the client can become essentially “hands-off” and let the copilot be the taskmaster for the whole process. If we were comparing the copilot to a chauffeur then it is a chauffeur who would plan your trip, choose the car, drive you there in comfort, and deposit you at your destination in one piece, and well within budget. And in fact, make the trip fun.



  • Contest Type :

    Client :

    The status of contest becomes Post-Mortem if no competitor submits before the deadline. In this situation all reviewers of this contest and PM/Copilot will have to fill out the Post-Mortem review score card. The reason of the failure is being investigated.
