@ec1warc1 there could be situations where proposals are not considered ‘key’ by themselves and we evaluate them. Here are two examples and there could be more. When a person or team submits multiple proposals or there are multiple similar small asking price proposals. In each case, the overlap...
Update on Dash BE.
We will soon be putting up the proposal on Dash Central. We want to share recent modifications and hear any feedback before we do.
The full scope estimate is $19,500 and aims to deliver reports on a select group of proposals. Taking into consideration the tight budget we...
@solarguy thank you for the comment and pointing out budget constraints. I think as the budget shrinks evaluating proposals becomes more crucial. Maintaining the network in the immediately foreseeable future is a priority. Outside of the Core Dev Team's full wages, other proposals will pass and...
@Unstoppable we will make modifications to ensure that the true cost of proposals can be located in the ‘Basic Information’ section, and will ultimately read as a data point of higher significance. We read about Ben Swann, which did affect the way in which we approach and evaluate proposals...

Update 12/29/18
We extend our gratitude to everyone who reviewed our offering to the DOA, and voted yes.
Should our services be requested in the future, we will be ready to work.
The community can engage our services by sponsoring the proposal fee. We will then deliver a full scope proposal...
From a research standpoint, I can see the work that Dash Watch does to follow up with and track the status of all the various approved proposals is labor intensive. I commend them for their efforts.
