Fewer status questions
Colleagues can see who is working on a task.
ORTIE / Work involving several colleagues
One colleague starts, another helps and a third takes over. The current status needs to stay with the work, even without fixed shifts.
RECOGNISABLE PRESSURE
An action started in an email, was discussed in a work chat and now sits with someone who is absent today. A colleague can help but does not know whether it is already done. Work waits for information held somewhere else.
Even without fixed shifts, a team needs a shared overview. Ortie keeps the task, its owner and questions together. Working agreements have their own place, while personal actions stay in private To-do.
AN ILLUSTRATIVE WORKING DAY
Create a task directly with enough context to begin. Mark urgency only where it is genuinely needed.
A colleague claims the task and can ask a question. Use team chat or a group with selected colleagues for wider discussion.
Release the task or let someone take over if needed. Complete it when done so the current status remains visible.
THE PRACTICAL VALUE
Colleagues can see who is working on a task.
The next colleague sees the action and can ask alongside the same work.
Agreements live in Updates and personal actions in private To-do.
MAKE THE VALUE TANGIBLE
Choose a type of action that often gets stuck between colleagues. See whether the team can identify its owner without separate messages and whether taking over requires less explanation.
What to assess in a pilotUse Ortie for tasks, work routines and communication between colleagues. Client records, medical reports and sensitive customer or HR information belong in the appropriate systems. Private To-do is for work actions too, not records.
Privacy and dataBEFORE YOU START
No. Tasks, chat, updates and private To-do also suit teams with ordinary working days. Checklists support recurring routines.
Examples include offices, dealerships, shops and facilities teams. The key question is whether colleagues need to divide and follow up shared work.
No. Start with one issue and add features when they make teamwork easier.
START WITH YOUR WORK
Start with one team and a routine that now causes uncertainty. Discuss the setup before deciding to expand.
