Interactive Voting - Emergency Services, Decision Making examples

The electronic voting system enables decisions to be made quickly and concisely by asking participants to vote on a question by choosing one of the options displayed.  Results are displayed instantly and the data captured is stored to be used at a later date.

There are several features within the system which facilitate decision-making. The priority ranking element enables users to rank answer options in order of importance. This is invaluable when deciding how budgets should be spent.

The comparison facility highlights changes in opinions.  For example, a Police authority may hold a public consultation on knife crime and safety in the area.  They put across several new initiatives and ask the public to compare each plan, by asking the same questions, and using a comparison graph to show results. This will result in one plan being identified as the initiative to be put into practice.

The demographic feature indicates whether one group is significantly more likely to be affected by a decision than another group. This may change the original decision.
