What are services?¶
A service at 2i2c is an organized set of procedures and resources that generate value for community stakeholders, aligning with 2i2c’s mission to enable open science and collaborative research through a global network of community hubs for interactive learning and discovery. Qualities of a service:
A scalable, repeatable activity that is defined by its outcome and has a clear value to the communities we serve.
Has to have a direct benefit or value to a community member or leader, as well as clear beneficiary archetypes.
Can be costed internally for the purposes of maintaining scalability and sustainability for 2i2c.
Can (but does not necessarily have to be) monetized on a cost x time basis, or bundled as a membership benefit.
Has a clear and scalable process which is well documented and does not rely on a single individual to execute.
