Introduction:
The Work Proposal Framework is a RFF (request for funds) mechanism for a decentralized workforce to coordinate opportunities to deliver work in exchange for funding from MakerDAO. The framework defines the overall process, templates, and best practices for increased MIP usability. It is created to enhance the workforces’ alignment with Governance desires by clearly defining how funding expectations related to producing deliverables and value.
Summary:
Work Proposal Framework responds to the challenges and frustrations observed with the current funding and coordination mechanisms available to Governance and the decentralized workforce. This framework is initiated by submitting a Work Proposal to Maker Governance. The Work Proposal is available for any individual or team to submit to Governance for approval as long as it meets the requirements defined in MIPxxc2 and the intended DLO. The Work Proposal Framework depends on the DAO-level Objective Framework. It requires a DLO to determine available opportunities for the team to submit work proposals against. It aims to reduce governance overhead and ease proposal writing by documenting best practices for consistent use in Work Proposals. Once a Work Proposal is approved, a MIP editor must update MIPxxc5 to track operational teams contributing to MakerDAO, the objectives they’re working on, and retrospective archival purposes.
Conclusion:
The Work Proposal Framework is an essential tool for Maker Governance and the decentralized workforce to coordinate effectively and produce deliverables that add value to the protocol. This framework provides a clear pathway to request funds from the protocol while increasing efficiency in the process. Ultimately, it allows the protocol to innovate and improve its existing infrastructure.
