Number  of  Namie  Residents  Living    in  each  Prefecture

Page 13: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

Namie  town  decided

•  To  distribute  tablet  devices  to  the  residents  •  Offered  to  CfJ  to  create  useful  applicaQons  on  the  devices  

Page 14: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

What  did  we  do  for  Namie?

•  A  CiQzen-­‐Centric  Prototyping  –  face-­‐to-­‐face  Interviews.  –  Involve  ciQzens  by  holding  Ideathons  and  Hackathons.  

•  Help  Namie  town’s  tender  process  for  the  applicaQon  development  process.  

Page 15: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

7  Ideathons  were  held,    420  People  parQcipated,    770  Ideas  were  presented  

Page 16: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

3  Hackathons  were  held    14  Mock-­‐ups  were  made  

Page 17: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

What  would  residents  need?

•  InformaQon  about  the  town  and  their  own  houses.  – Know  what  radiaQon  level  is  around  their  own  houses.  

– Know  when  they  can  return.  

•  CommunicaQon  – Residents  want  to  talk  about  their  old  neighborhood  to  maintain  their  regional  accent.

Page 18: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

Improvement  the  tender  process

•  Code  for  Japan  and  fellows  helped  to  write  RFP  for  avoiding  ‘vendor  lock’.  – The  apps  should  be  open  source  sonware.  – Requires  agile  process  development.  

•  Published  tenderer’s  presentaQons  and  published  scoring  in  detail.  – Transparency  makes  clear  decision.  

Page 19: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

What  will  we  do  for  Namie?  

•  Fellows  will  manage  an  agile  development  process  with  the  selected  partners.  

•  Main  funcQons:  – Real-­‐Qme  radiaQon  maps  – Keep  up  with  local  news  – Community  noQces  – Sharing  photos  of  Namie  – DistribuQng  administraQve  informaQon  

Page 20: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

Further  Fellowship  Issues  

•  Residents  have  a  basic  level  of  IT  literacy.  – Fellows  will  organize  workshops  for  the  ciQzen.  

•  Running  agile  process  efficiently  with  local  government  and  partners.  – There  is  not  much  instances  of  ‘Government  x  Agile’  in  Japan.  

Page 21: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

Main  difficulQes  for  extending    the  fellowship

Ordinary  local  governments  don’t  have  enough  budget  for  the  fellowship  

Japanese  labor  market  is  not  mobilized  to  hire  high  skill  fellows  

Page 22: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

New  idea:  corporate  fellowship

•  We  are  about  to  start  three  months  fellowship  with  companies  – CfJ  defines  ‘Scope  of  Work’  with  local  governments  

– Companies  send  their  employees  as  a  fellow  – CfJ  arranges  teams  formed  by  the  fellows  – The  team  works  under  the  CfJ’s  governance  – Companies  pay  management  coordinate  fee  to  CfJ  

Page 23: 420 Techies for Namie - Hal Seki

Conclusion

•  The  situaQon  of  Namie  town’s  residents  are  difficult.  

•  To  fix  such  kind  of  complicated  issues,  ciQzen  centric  prototyping  process  were  useful  to  collect  actual  needs  and  ideas.  

•  Making  prototypes  before  the  tender  process  worked  for  finding  the  concept  was  actually  works  or  not.
