Gaining Momentum

System Change targets a genuine and important real-world problem by using data consulting and Tableau to help communities address homelessness. While the project's utility and market relevance are solid, the submission contains significant red flags. Claims regarding audience reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product') are entirely unrealistic for a specialized B2B/public-sector consulting service. Technical innovation relies on standard industry data tools rather than novel technology. Because of the highly exaggerated and vague responses, the submission incurs heavy penalties, resulting in a low PoU score.
