The Tally · National survey

Canada's national built environment digitalization survey.

The first count of how digital Canada’s built environment really is. 10–14 minutes, confidential, results shared with every respondent.

Industry-wide research, not a service. Separate from our free Snapshot Audit, which is always available.

Service architecture

Six practice areas, one service structure.

BIM remains the most mature capability. The other practice areas are explicitly named and resourced, because the diagnostic surfaces them as priorities and we know the importance and the benefit of having a fulsome built digitalization environment.

Most mature

BIM under ISO 19650

Exchange Information Requirements, BIM Execution Plans, and Common Data Environment design — the operating system for digital delivery.

Digital Procurement Strategy

Procurement language that carries digital requirements through the supply chain, drafted to public-sector standard.

Digital Twin design

Design and implementation of operating twins that inform energy, condition, and renewal decisions in near real time.

AI integration & governance

Governed, practical AI use cases — analytics that flag cost, schedule, and performance deviation early.

Asset data architecture

Structured asset data that flows from design into operations and survives every handover and transition.

Change & capability

ADKAR, Middle-Out Engagement, and the Active Secretariat Model anchor every program. We build capability, not dependence.

Digitalization is the connective tissue inside all six — not a seventh practice area. The diagnostic routes to the work the findings require; it does not predetermine it.

A planning lens

Four outcome areas

The practice areas group by the leadership conversation and the lifecycle stages they serve. This is how we plan and report — in an inclusive manner in clear terms for all, involving the full organization if required.

Capital Project Performance

Cost, schedule, and risk certainty on major capital projects.

Buyer: Head of Infrastructure, Capital Program Director · Stages: Plan, Design, Build

Asset Operations & Renewal

Lower total cost of ownership, longer asset life, decisions informed by live data.

Buyer: COO, Director of Real Property · Stages: Operate, Renew

Portfolio & Investment Strategy

Better capital allocation across the portfolio, supported by structured data and scenario analysis.

Buyer: CFO, Deputy Minister, Head of Strategy · Stages: Plan, Renew, Retire

Risk, Resilience & Compliance

Reduced exposure to climate, regulatory, and operational risk; auditable digital practice.

Buyer: Chief Risk Officer, Head of Sustainability · Stages: All

Targeted, not universal

Scoped to your role, size, and need

There is no universal package. Every engagement is scoped to who you are and what the evidence shows you need. Different organizations have different roles and priorities — and may be strong in some areas and not others. Our approach considers all of that.

Public-sector owners

Federal, provincial, and municipal — large to small.

Private-sector owners

Mid-market and enterprise asset owners.

Lead contractors

Delivery organizations carrying digital requirements.

Operators & FMs

Facility and portfolio managers across the lifecycle.

Not sure which practice areas you need?

That’s the point of the diagnostic. The findings decide — not a sales conversation.
