From percent-for-art programs to corporate commissions, Artsumé provides the transparency and documentation public art programs require.
Government and civic programs face unique requirements: transparency, documentation, and defensible selection processes.
Managing submissions via email and paper creates documentation gaps. When stakeholders ask how decisions were made, reconstructing the process is nearly impossible.
Getting selection panels to review, score, and discuss is logistically complex. Coordinating schedules and aggregating feedback wastes valuable time.
Without proper documentation, selection processes can be challenged. Proving fair, merit-based decisions requires records you may not have.
Receive qualifications in a consistent digital format. Every submission, score, and decision automatically documented and searchable.
Panel members review online, score against criteria, and provide documented feedback. Aggregate scores automatically for fair comparison.
Complete audit trails satisfy procurement requirements. Generate reports for public meetings, FOIA requests, and stakeholder inquiries.
