Engineers Canada currently utilizes an existing technology solution to support its accreditation processes which is considered a critical operational function. As Engineers Canada evaluates long-term operational needs, it requires an independent assessment to determine whether the current technology solution remains viable, competitive, sustainable, and aligned with strategic goals. This engagement will provide a thorough review of the existing system, alternative off-the-shelf solutions, vendor stability, user satisfaction, and associated risks.
The primary objectives of this engagement are to:
- Assess the effectiveness, scalability, and long-term viability of the Client’s current technology solution.
- Evaluate the vendor’s performance, stability, support model, and alignment with the Engineers Canada’s ongoing needs.
- Conduct a market scan of comparable off-the-shelf technology solutions.
- Gather and synthesize feedback from key interest holders regarding system performance, usability, and satisfaction.
- Provide a balanced comparative risk analysis outlining the implications of maintaining the current solution versus transitioning to a potential alternative. If the assessment indicates that retaining the current solution is the more viable option, include recommended enhancements or optimization strategies to improve its performance, stability, and long-term sustainability. Deliver actionable recommendations to guide the Engineers Canada’s long-term technology strategy.
