What’s working to get things moving more quickly or make work more efficient?
 +
* Slack
 +
* Guidelines for writing
 +
* ROT
 +
* Sharing prototypes instead of Word docs for approvals:
 +
  :* Screen share + verbal feedback
 +
  :* FIGMA allows annotations
 +
  :* Approval meetings where approvers go through the prototype all together instead of routing a document through a chain of approvals<br>
 +
 +
Neil Littlejohns (Ontario Digital Service) -  a lot of people in the Ontario Digital Service say that Slack has been the thing which has allowed them to move quickly. Fast/smooth communication is paramount for us right now<br>

Jo - Government of Yukon - We developed guidance for the people who write the guidelines who weren't experienced in writing web content. It's helped quite a bit to cut down editing and the ability to get content online much more quickly. It's helped build relationships too. <br>
 +
 +
Teressa Peters - PEI has 159 pages about COVID on the site, we are in the process of reviewing all of these pages, some can be updated, some archived, some combined....quite a process!<br>
 +
 +
Neil Littlejohns (Ontario Digital Service) - on the design/approvals side, Figma is a huge boost for us, being able to share prototypes quickly has been huge.
 +
:* Translation continues to be a challenge for us, so would love to hear recommendations on how to streamline that.<br>
 +
 +
Lauren Sugar - Approvals continue to be a huge challenge for getting content online quickly - would love to hear if anyone has any innovative solutions!<br>
 +
 +
Richard Cormier - translation has been an issue with us as well as English approvals are often last minute and sometimes have significant changes before being approved.<br>
 +
Martin Boucher - Québec : all our communications are centralized with a central team and dispatched to teams in ministries.<br>
 +
Jo - Government of Yukon - We've been using GatherContent for quite a long time (pre-Covid) which is just for editing but really helps digital and communications writers work with program staff. You can write your own templates for your content types. <br>
 +
Allan Lawlor - NS has used GatherContent outside of COVID projects<br>
 +
Neil Littlejohns (Ontario Digital Service) - as an example, the original, Ontario-specific version of COVID Alert was prototyped in Figma: https://www.figma.com/proto/NfWbSTFwoVJ8YM6KDmx6KC/Ontario-(COVID-Alert)_Internal-ODS-file?node-id=33%3A1838&viewport=354%2C455%2C0.03772130608558655&scaling=scale-down

We were able to do remote user testing by having Ontarians interact with this prototype, it was really fantastic.
