Industry Challenges
The data challenges government organizations face
Government organizations hold some of the richest data assets in the country — but legacy infrastructure, procurement constraints, and siloed mandates make it hard to extract value.
Legacy system fragmentation
Decades of siloed departmental systems store critical data in incompatible formats with no unified access layer.
Open data obligations
Governments are expected to publish high-quality, timely open data — but producing it from operational systems is a data engineering challenge.
Bilingual and accessibility requirements
All public-facing digital services and reports must meet Official Languages Act and WCAG 2.1 accessibility standards.
Security and data residency
Protected B and higher data must remain within Canadian jurisdiction, limiting cloud options and requiring careful architecture.
