Canada’s built environment digitalization firm
Improving your buildings and infrastructure, with evidence — not assumptions.
We help owners, operators, and builders of Canada’s infrastructure place their organization on the digital maturity scale, price the cost of where they are (and aren’t), and produce an evidence-based, ROI satisfying improvement plan.
The snapshot audit is a quick and effective way to understand where your organization sits digitally. It is free with no obligation or email required.

The journey
The Clarity Builders approach on one page
One maturity scale that has four levels measured against five dimensions — People, Process, Technology, Governance, Contracts. Placement is per dimension, so no two clients get the same plan.
Value, named and measured
Five pillars every engagement is measured against
Every engagement names the pillar it solves for, and every outcome is measured against it — in language that is clear across all organizations.
01
Capital efficiency
Lower delivered cost per unit of capacity, tighter cost certainty, fewer change orders.
02
Operating performance
Lower total cost of ownership, higher asset uptime, better lifecycle outcomes.
03
Risk reduction
Fewer surprises in schedule, cost, regulation, climate exposure, safety, and reputation.
04
Schedule certainty
Earlier visibility of slippage, tighter governance of the critical path, predictable handover.
05
Organizational capability
An organization that can sustain the outcomes after the engagement ends.
Built environment, only.
Our focus is solely on the built environment, we purposely stay out of other business areas.
The digitalization journey
Four maturity levels, one scale
Placement is recorded per dimension — an organization can be BIM Ready on Contracts and Analogish on Technology, and buy only the work each dimension needs.
Level 1
Analogish
Some digital, PDF, and email-driven workflows. Information tends to live in silos.
Level 2
Pre-BIM
Awareness established, governance being designed. Has momentum towards a better digital structure.
Level 3
BIM Ready
BIM under ISO 19650 is the operating norm. Data flows into operations. Positioned for digital best practices.
Level 4
BIM Engaged
Digital Twin and AI-assisted analytics are part of how the organization runs. Leader. Highest level of benefit.
Service architecture
Six specialisms, one service structure
The diagnostic routes honestly to the work the findings require — not to a pre-set package. Digitalization is the connective tissue for all six.
BIM under ISO 19650
EIRs, BEPs, and Common Data Environment design — the most mature capability.
Digital Procurement Strategy
Carrying digital requirements through the supply chain in procurement language.
Digital Twin design
Operating twins that inform energy, condition, and renewal decisions.
AI integration & governance
Practical, governed AI use cases tied to measurable outcomes.
Asset data architecture
Structured asset data that survives every handover and transition.
Change & capability
ADKAR, Middle-Out Engagement, and the Active Secretariat Model on every program.
Evidence, not assertion
Field-tested across federal Canada
Change management
Building Canada's Digital Foundation
The Digital Built Government initiative field-tested the people-first disciplines that now anchor the CB model.
~96% of E&C data went unused before reform.
ISO 19650
Modernizing national infrastructure
Putting a federal department’s real-property data on a standardized, digital footing — scope extended by the client.
18 deliverables across 4 workstreams.
National standard
Updating Canada's BIM playbook
Detailed guidance for the NRC’s updated Canadian Practice Manual for BIM, aligned to ISO 19650 Parts 1–6.
