Tasks

Understanding Tasks in Meddo

Tasks in Meddo serve as low-level action items that help measure outcomes and track progress within Milestones. While Meddo is business-oriented rather than task-oriented, we recognize the need for a structured way to monitor key deliverables at a high level without getting lost in execution details.

Why Use Tasks?

• Provide a lightweight tracking mechanism for key outcomes.

• Help measure progress within Milestones without excessive detail.

• Allow assignment of owners for accountability.

• Enable a simple done/not done status to reflect completion.

How Tasks Work

Tasks in Meddo are designed to represent high-level work units, such as projects or initiatives, rather than granular to-do lists. They can be:

• Assigned to individuals or teams.

• Linked to Milestones to track completion progress.

• Marked as done or not done to reflect status updates.

Example of a Task:

Complete the marketing plan for Q2 launch (assigned to the marketing lead, tracked within a Milestone).

Future Integration with Project Management Tools

While Meddo does not aim to be a task management system, we acknowledge the importance of tracking execution at a higher level. In the future, Meddo will integrate with leading Project Management (PM) systems such as:

• Jira

• Linear

• ClickUp

• and more...

These integrations will enable users to sync detailed tasks from external tools while still maintaining strategic visibility in Meddo.

Conclusion

Tasks in Meddo offer a structured yet high-level approach to tracking key outcomes. By linking tasks to Milestones, assigning ownership, and maintaining a simple completion status, organizations can monitor progress effectively without getting lost in granular execution details. Future integrations with PM tools will further enhance this capability, bridging strategic alignment with detailed task execution.
