Technical

Brief description of hardware that has already been built and tested. What it includes and doesn't.
Can you organize around a version freeze of the existing build, or are you aiming to make improvements as a result of this workshop?

Organizational and Logistics

Are you available to participate in a DPV to document/develop/shake down your workshop, 3-4 weeks prior to the workshop?
If you can't make it for a DPV, can you make a site visit to assess logistics and make necessary preparations for the workshop? This allows you to test our tools and infrastructure as it will be used in the workshop.
The target audience size is 24 people for the workshop. Do you think this is reasonable? What would be your ideal number of participants?
Typically, our workshops are held over a weekend. Can you design the build to be 8 hour long (on Saturday) with the entire workshop audience?
What is the ideal build team size per machine built? Can every single person or 2-person team build a machine? The best outcome would be if everyone goes home with a working product.

What is your hardware license?
What is your software license?
What off-shelf components are you using, and which ones are you building yourself?
Are you using any proprietary software or hardware in your build? Please explain.
Are you willing to release all assets generated in this workshop under an OSHWA-compatible license - CC-BY-SA?

Please show a link to the Bill of materials? Is the BOM comprehensive to cover the entire build?
What tools are required?
Link to 3D CAD?
CAM files?
Source code?
Diagrams, schematics?
Build instructional?
Would it be useful if you use documentation/dev support from 24 Summer interns? We will have about 24 people on site throughout the summer, and we can commit our people to help in some aspects of documentation/build procedure preparation.

OSE will set up registration on Eventbrite. Can you organize signup and send out logistics emails to participants prior to the event?
Can you coordinate with our Hospitality Manager on working out logistics and food for participants? OSE will cook.
Can you prepare a 1 hour Immersion Crash Course covering perspective and technical aspects of the machine of interest?
Can you prepare the full CAD, BOM, and Instructional the workshop of interest? Typical schedule is 2 hour intro/orientation/presentation on OSE Dev and Documentation. Then 2 hours of Crash Course on the design/systems engineering of your work. Then 2 hours on workshop preparation - hands-on skills. This should cover manipulating design files, accessing all source files, doing file conversions, etc.
Can you come 2 days early to set up the space and work areas for the workshop? You may use the help of our DPVs to help you prepare.
Based on the number of participants, can you create an 8-hpur work flow document for the build day?
We would like to hold a Documentation Sprint on the third day to produce a Developer's Manual for the machine. Are you interested in this?
Are you willing to organize a documentation strategy with our Summer Interns, so they document while the build happens?
Can you order all of the parts required?

What is the price point of your complete BOM?
OSE is planning to charge between $300-600 for the 3 day workshop plus the cost of materials. What price point would you set for the workshop, including materials? What different price options would you like to have? (such as single day, people coming as a pair, etc)
Are you comfortable with a 50/50 revenue share of workshop revenue after all fixed costs (materials/insurance/food/publicity costs/etc) are covered? You are responsible to cover your own transportation to Factor e Farm. Any infrastructure built for the event becomes property of OSE to further its educational mission. OSE will cover the cost of infrastructure/tooling upgrades necessary for the workshop to happen, as negotiated explicitly in workshop planning.
Are you comfortable with running a workshop for about 24-36 participants, including a documentation team consisting of OSE Summer DPVs?

What is your motivation for collaborating with OSE?
How does this workshop fit within the context of OSE building the 50 tools of the Global Village Construction Set?
Are you interested in developing the Workshop Model as a revenue source for yourself?
Are you employed, are are you a full time hacker?
Are you intersted in a DPV leading up to the workshop?
What outcomes are you looking for as a result of the Workshop?
What would be the minimum mark of a successful workshop experience for you?
What risks are there to the success of the workshop?
How confident are you that the workshop will be a success?
What is the most optimistic outcome of the workshop? (build results-_, financial results -, social aspects - , personal growth -, others)
What is the worst case scenario for the workshop outcome? (same categories as above)
