is a Field Service Management (FSM) system that provides expert support for economic development practitioners operating in the field of agricultural sustainable development. It serves the cross-disciplinary and sector professionals working to support Agenda 2030's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, the SDGs do not include a specific integrated agricultural production system model but they are made up of a series of cross-cutting themes concentrating on general sustainability and including over 230 indicators.
The remote delivery of these capabilities are changing the efficiency and effectiveness of economic development activities. The uptake of this efficient and effective approach has increased since the advent of the Covid-19 epidemic. It delivers a comprehensive and expert support for technical and economic development teams working on the design and management of agricultural projects and policies and at a significantly lower cost. The term "field" simply indicates that those using the service are not in the same location as the technical service base, but are working in any global location with access to the internet. will be delivered and operated as Software as a Service (SaaS) specifically configured to deliver a higher quality of support than conventional support systems. This is achieved by making available a completely new set of advanced analytical tools to meet the needs of Sustainable Agricultural Development Goal operations. Many of the tools are not available to practitioners but will become accessible at a low cost with the launch of the mutec.cloud service. These tools support decision analyses for the design of agricultural projects and policies, facilitate project implementation across multi-project portfolios and provide cloud-based resources to conduct project evaluations. We are an economic development team with over 45 years cumulative experience in natural resources and agricultural development project design and management, including implementation and evaluation in many agricultural sectors and on behalf of the major international development agencies . During the last decade, as part of the George Boole Foundation review and development of improved project design systems, we contributed to the design and development of SDG Toolkit, the most advanced set of analytical tools available for project design, whole cycle and portfolio management. Currently there are over 80 dedicated analytical tools (ATs). Our own service is based on an advanced server-side operation developed by plasma.systems which has lowered the central server operational costs enabling us to lower the cost of entry for users. The technologies deployed make mutec.cloud a good option for any sized operation from single practitioners and consultants to large organizations with large project portfolios. The result is a structured design and management system where all information is kept together and able to be remotely shared with team members and oversight personnel from anywhere in the world. The mutec.cloud service is for anyone who wishes to benefit from a comprehensive support in carrying out professional tasks related to agricultural project or policy design, gap, needs and constraints analysis and to review practical change strategy options to identify the best options to attain specific objectives. By following the guidelines provided within the mutec.cloud Agricultural Project, users can conduct analyses and projections to gather evidence to support design decisions and generate reports in narrative, tabular, graphic and data sets all downloadable in formats compatible with Miscosoft Office applications. This provides a completely professional presentation for the clients of mutec.cloud customers. mutec.cloud has the full array of useful ATs but also the philosophy minimizing operational costs for users. The only software required to use the system is a standard browser running on any device and operating system. Browsers are usually free of charge. Each client has a dedicated database to avoid mixing of data with that of other client customers. Processor speeds, memory and storage capacity operate always well in excess of current requirements to prevent constraints and/or data loss. Each client system has access to the AT Library. The system has a security system entry. Work phase analytical functional coverage includes:
