For Alberta municipalities

Modernize with confidence. Answer council with evidence.

Independent advice for CAOs and senior leaders: see where your organization really stands, then modernize what matters first.

23 years at the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo Led an award-winning community safety project No tender required

Four questions for your next leadership meeting

Policy is updated. Can you prove it works?

POPA and ATIA replaced FOIP on 11 June 2025. Could your organization:

  • Produce a named record, on time?

  • Show who actually opened it?

  • Say where personal information lives?

  • Show how the last incident was handled?

How I help

The right tool for where you are

Strategy Session

Council and staff want to modernize.

A half day on where AI and technology will help, where they won’t, and what comes first.

New Leader Baseline

A new CAO, or a council that wants a fresh start.

One shared, independent picture, with a Now / Next / Later plan.

Program Reviews

One program needs a close look.

HR & Safety, Records & Documents, or Assets, measured in depth.

Implementation Guidance

You are ready to build.

Designs your IT team builds in your own Microsoft 365. Records first. Your data stays in your tenant.

No tender required. Fixed-fee engagements fall below the open-tendering threshold under the New West Partnership Trade Agreement, subject to your purchasing policy.

Your advisor

Someone who has worked inside a municipality

I spent 23 years at the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo, including three as Program Manager, HR & Safety. I know the pressure of council, budget and audit.

Answer council from the record

Designs from the fictional Town of Example: council reports built from the record, a public window residents can check, and a budget that builds itself.
