This project can not be done alone, therefore we have developed a partnership model to make it easy for groups to quickly join and become part of this initiative. Specifically, we are looking to develop a first cohort of partners for 2018-2019 to help with the first stage of development for the Open and Accessible Digital Workspace.


Partnership Options

Anchor Partnerships

  • Three (3) partners to invest $250,000-$500,000
  • We will work to directly meet your needs and apply the solutions we come up with to the larger project
  • We will support an open beta and scaled roll-out of key services

Building Block Partnerships

  • Six (6) partners to invest $50,000-$100,000

Nimble Partnerships

2018-2019 Year

This year, we will achieve:

  • Results for Anchor Partner Organizations: Addressing discrete, priority business needs of three organizations via at-scale, viable digital solutions implemented in those organizations (2018).
  • Results for the GC: Addressing endemic, priority business needs held in common across the GC by joining-up solutions into an open and Accessible Digital Workspace.
  • Reduce Costs: Saving GC time and money while meeting business needs.
  • Implementation of Digital Government Models: Establishing agile, transparent governance models that can support further digital government projects in the GC.
