Gotcha
Process improvement is incredibly important. It affects every facet of daily operations regardless if you are an aircraft maintainer, satellite controller or personnelist. There was a lot of focus on that while I was in. It was a weird time where a lot of the processes had to change due to technology changing. When I first joined in 2001, my comm maintenance shop was still using CAMS. I was a part of my squadron's AFSO21 panel at my first duty station. That was a pretty cool experience.
Looking at it, it looks like the API program replaced the IDEA program. You got my vote; good luck!
Looks like voting is closed, or I couldn't figure it out.
Your submission was probably the least exciting...which means it will have the biggest impact! People who are not you never think about the UI and how much time is saved by improving repetitive processes. I was very impressed by what you accomplished there and I wish you the best of luck. I can't see any of the other submissions ever helping me in my daily life, but YOUR tech could help out at the DMV, the office, at tax season, fantasy football leagues, e-commerce shopping... the list goes on.

Voting is still open. Yeah this tech is used heavily by industries with repetitive processes. Military, not so much lol

FYI SWMBO had already seen this & voted for you before I shared it with her. It sounds like there are a lot of people who hope you win & who want to see this implemented.

That's awesome. You say she's a UPC, what is that?
In the tradition of MA politics we vote early and as many times as possible. (I have lots of IP addresses.).

I'm horrible about all the USAF acronyms, but I think she's the Unit Personnel Clerk? Or maybe it's CSS(idk what that means). She switched jobs & units last year so I'm not exactly sure of her current status, other than it was a pay raise & a way better environment.

I tried to open the link three times and in every case, I just got a blank, gray screen.
Anyway, somebody put up voting place posters in my local cemetery over the weekend. I’m not aware of any special measures or elections.
I think a statement is being made about illegal voting (i.e. people voting on behalf of dead people).

Unit Program Coordinator then. That isnt a bad job if the commander is laid back.
In reply to yupididit :
She's with the 403rd Reserve unit. Right now the Commander position is part-time, but they're in the process of upgrading it to F/T.
Congrats man!
I just voted, not sure if it counts but hey
(I work C-17's. I'm curious to see if that K-loader tool will make it to our fleet)
