Our recent work

 

Our offerings

 
 
  • Raised awareness about significant gaps in pandemic support, leading to immediate criteria changes and millions of dollars of emergency funding becoming accessible to our clients.

  • Helped raise awareness among MPs about serious mental health concerns with a Senate amendment to medical assistance in dying legislation. After the government made changes to the bill, we helped ensure mental health stakeholders will be at the table to shape safeguards for people with mental illness.

  • Our ongoing work with the natural resources sector on the active transition to a green economy has led to millions of dollars of funding for a variety of initiatives. Rural economic development and Indigenous partnerships continue to be front and centre in our advocacy. 

  • Helped clients land their public policy ideas in committee reports or government initiatives.

Digital government and procurement

 

Deep knowledge of SMEs

 

Digital modernization is no longer the way of the future — it’s now. Canadians and the businesses that serve them deserve modern, agile, and outcome-based government procurements. From getting back office systems in the public service into the cloud, to improving frictionless experiences, to leveraging data and analytics to build smarter and more efficient systems in governments, we’re ready to get to work.

Our team of experts in government decision-making and modernization, digital and public sector engagement can help you engage the government in a meaningful way.

 

At Compass Rose, we do great things with our large clients. But we also understand the power of small businesses because we are one. We have lived the big things that can be accomplished by a small group of highly skilled professionals. That is why we are well positioned to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) do more with government.

Remaining competitive in a dynamic, global and digital economy is a challenge for all SMEs. The administrative burden placed on small business can often be a barrier to accessing funds, new markets or growing your business. Our team has a deep knowledge of federal programs, funds and tax credits for SMEs – and can translate this into tailored action that can transform your business.

 We can help SMEs with:

  • high-level government advocacy

  • finding and accessing funding support

  • smart business planning

  • global market knowledge

  • compelling proposal writing
