Proposals and decisions. Quarter

In New Zealand? Visit quarter.nz for body corporates.

Propose. Discuss. Then decide it properly.

Most good ideas about a building die as a sentence said to one person in a lift. The gap between "we should get the bike room sorted" and a proposal with a cost, a rationale and a vote is administrative work nobody volunteered for. That gap is the thing Quarter is most useful at closing.

Proposals and decisions in Quarter

What it does

An idea arrives as an idea
An owner does not have to know what a proposal looks like. They say the thing, Quarter works it up with them, and it reaches the committee legible.
Discussion has a place to happen
Each proposal carries its own thread, so the argument is attached to the thing being argued about rather than spread over a dozen private messages.
Decisions are recorded where they were made
Decisions taken between meetings are recorded with who was for them and when, so next year's committee inherits reasons rather than outcomes.
It connects to the money
A proposal that costs something is put against the budget and the fund, which is usually what decides it.

How it works

  1. Proposals are raised from a conversation or by hand on the web. Same record either way.

  2. Decisions taken in a meeting and between meetings end up in the same place. To an owner they are the same thing: something the building decided.

Try it now

Turn a half-formed idea into something votable.

Say the loose version, the thing you would say in the lift. The trial asks the two or three things that turn it into a proposal, and writes it up with you.

No account, no email address. It's a demo building, so nothing reaches anybody's neighbours.

What it doesn't do

Worth as much as knowing what it does, and otherwise found out at the worst moment.
