Projects & the WorkMAP™

A project in Radial is a job you’re delivering. Its WorkMAP™ is the verified record of that delivery. In everyday use the two are the same thing: when people say “the WorkMAP™”, they mean the project and everything tracked on it.

Creating a project

When you create a project, you select the items from your org-wide Items Library that are relevant to this specific job. That subset becomes the project’s WorkMAP™. Only the work that matters to this project shows up. The rest of your library stays out of the way.

You can add or remove items as the project evolves; the WorkMAP™ isn’t frozen at creation.

Tracking delivery

Each item on the WorkMAP™ moves through a simple lifecycle:

1. Not started: assigned but not yet begun.
2. In progress: the Completer is working on it.
3. Completed: the Completer has marked it done.
4. Verified: a Verifier has confirmed it. This is the state that counts toward the permanent record and career portfolios.

Items can also be risk-flagged at any point. See RedButton.

Ways to view a project

Radial gives you several views of the same project data:

• The WorkMAP™ Summary: a compact progress bar at the top of every project.
• Canvas View: the whole project as a visual board of cards and milestones.
• Table and list views: for working through items methodically.

What a project produces

A delivered project isn’t just “done”. It leaves behind:

• A verified record of exactly what was delivered and by whom.
• Career evidence added automatically to each team member’s portfolio.
• Any risk and compliance detail captured along the way (RedButton, SpecScan), attached to the items it relates to.

This is why the WorkMAP™ is the core of Radial: the work you do to deliver a project is the same work that builds lasting, verifiable evidence.
