Consulting

Three practices. Pick one, or move through all three in order.

And when the fix turns out to be a piece of software rather than a plan, that's what our software practice is for.

01 — Trade

Stop betting the business on one market

What you get: a second (or third) market you can actually enter, and the evidence to defend that decision to your board, your bank, or your funder.

Most businesses we meet know they're over-exposed to one trading partner — they just don't know exactly where the risk sits or what order to fix it in. We find that out, then build the roadmap around it: which markets are realistic now, which compliance gaps would trip you up, and which grants and programs can fund the move.

  • An export readiness assessment scored against real risk, not a generic checklist
  • A shortlist of markets ranked by fit, not just size
  • A compliance and trade-agreement path so there are no surprises mid-expansion
  • Direct routes into funding programs like CanExport, matched to your stage

This is also where our ExportReady tool came from — the same assessment, now self-serve.

02 — AI

Adopt AI without the expensive false start

What you get: a rollout your staff actually use, tools chosen for your workflows instead of the loudest demo, and none of the compliance exposure that comes from moving fast without governance.

Most failed AI initiatives don't fail on technology — they fail on adoption, because nobody built the business case or prepared the people before the tool showed up. We start with the case, then the tool, then the training, in that order, at a pace your organization can actually absorb.

  • A readiness and risk assessment before you commit budget
  • A business case tied to a specific problem, not a general "AI strategy"
  • Governance that satisfies your compliance and regulatory obligations
  • Change management so the rollout survives contact with your team

We work particularly often with higher education and transportation organizations navigating public-sector procurement and policy constraints.

03 — Delivery

Get the plan across the finish line

What you get: a strategy that survives contact with procurement, competing priorities, and a team spread across time zones — because someone is running it day to day, not just handing it off.

The gap between a good plan and a delivered one is usually a gap in ownership. We fill it with PMI-aligned program leadership, carrying trade, AI, or transformation initiatives from decision to working result — including coordination across time zones, cultures, and languages.

  • PMI-aligned project and program leadership from day one to delivery
  • Cross-border and cross-time-zone team coordination that actually holds together
  • Risk identification and mitigation before it becomes a delay
  • Stakeholder communication in English and French, without losing nuance

Not sure which practice fits your situation?

That's exactly what the first call is for — no proposal required to find out.
