Cybersecurity Services for Donna Cona

Donna Cona wired a territory into existence. Nunavut was created on 1 April 1999, and the technical architecture behind its new government came from an Ottawa firm founded in 1996 by John Bernard, a member of the Madawaska Maliseet First Nation. Its name honours Chief Donnacona. The company holds Certified Aboriginal Business status, qualifies as a supplier under the federal Procurement Strategy for Aboriginal Business, and works from Ottawa and Vancouver across business planning, information management, IT and data science

Procurement set asides open a door that open tendering would keep shut, and holding the account afterwards is a different discipline entirely. Federal departments and northern governments do not stop at the system they bought. Information management leads into data science, data science raises the question of who may see what and under which control, and that question is a security question no matter which practice it lands in. Donna Cona has spent since 1996 building relationships that survive changes of minister and machinery of government. Answering a departmental security assessment by pointing at another supplier is how those relationships quietly stop being exclusive

CWS staffs the security answer and leaves the Donna Cona name on it. Consultants work under the partner brand to one delivery standard across Canada and the United States, in English and in French, which matters where a federal bilingual obligation or a Quebec client makes it non negotiable. Corova is where the scope gets built, the price gets set and the work gets tracked, so what a statement of work promised can be reconciled against what was actually delivered
