Road Test Fears

When a road test competition is announced for an item that you might find useful what goes through your mind?

  • Generally I only apply for RoadTests that I can provide information that might be of benefit to someone else.

    Sometimes I have a good use that might be slightly different from the normal.

     

    It would be nice to treat them as a learning opportunity, but the reality is that 60 days is often a bit short for that, given the other tasks/workload.

    I am sure others have been there before where someone in your organisation / business wants an idea implemented and you know what kit could be used but you and the team have limited experience implementing as not familiar with all or parts of the kit and the development platform. You are then put on the spot when pushed to give an assessment on when you would have something ready to demo to others. Either the kit fails or you as a team fail... or you get it right on the night.

     

    So, I think the 60 days is fine as this gives a good indication as to how far you can get versus expectation.
