Past projects
Effort is appreciated but
results are what matter
Who: Leading producer and administrator of vehicle protection products in Canada and the US
Need: Migrate from an internally developed, legacy contract administration system to a commercial cloud offering from StoneEagle F&I
Engagement: Develop a reliable and repeatable ETL process to migrate the legacy data, manage the organizational change activities to implement the new system successfully, and oversee the project management throughout the process
Challenges: Client was the first beta customer for the vendor's data load process. Due to the complexity of the data load, the project plan had to adapt weekly to address unforseen challenges and ensure the project's success
Vehicle
Protection
Services
Who: Largest automobile fleet management company in North America and ANZ
Need: Grow the company from 1B in assets to $21B in 6 years through an aggressive acquisition strategy of 5 companies
Engagement: Each acquisition was highly dependent on the successful rationalization and integration of staff and IT environments to meet M&A synergy targets
Challenges: IT grew from 10 employees to over 600 FTE located in multiple development centres around the globe supporting a complex ecosystem of modern and legacy platforms and applications
Vehicle Fleet
Small to Midsize
Business
Who: Small to midsize insurance business
Need: Company experienced a cyber attack that resulted in its entire IT environment - voice, data, servers, and desktops - being encrypted. The company could not service its client base
Engagement: Provide crisis management on behalf of the client to direct and manage the vendors engaged by the cyber insurance carrier to facilitate a return to full operation
Challenges: This was an exceptionally challenging situation that required outsourcing and rebuilding nearly all of the client's IT infrastructure and processes from scant documentation
Vehicle Fleet
Who: US VC funded EV fleet management company
Need: Scalable IT strategy
Engagement: Build and implement an IT strategy that would support 1 - 3 years of growth. The strategy had to minimize headcount additions, leverage outsourced services, and keep capital costs down
Challenges: With the staff decentralized across Canada and the US, finding an outsource IT provider capable of delivering desktop and server support services, cross-border procurement, and security for a company <50 staff was more difficult than expected
Who: Clearing service provider for Canadian mutual funds
Need: An industry sponsored company that would develop and implement data standards and applications to link participants in the Canadian mutual fund industry
Engagement: Create the entity from scratch and design, build, implement and operate the applications necessary to support mutual fund order placement, reconciliation and net-settlement services
Challenges: There was no playbook for this project. We started with an office in Toronto's financial district, and built a business called FundServ that sits at the heart of the Canadian mutual fund industry
Mutual Funds
Who: Large municipal government
Need: Comprehensive business continuity plan for the city
Engagement: Develop and test a comprehesive business continuity plan that addressed operational needs and risk management across various city business divisions
Challenges: Often due to lack of or incomplete documentation, developing the high-level architecture required reverse engineering the applications and infrastruture; necessitating in-depth analysis and cross-team collaboration
