Core Platform

Enterprise Integration Platform Purpose-Built for Canadian Municipalities

A single integration backbone connecting all Civic products with each other and with provincial, federal, and third-party systems. Master data management eliminates duplicate records. Real-time event bus replaces brittle point-to-point integrations. Pre-built connectors for MPAC, Teranet, and ServiceOntario eliminate custom integration development. Delivered as a full source code licence.

Certified & Compliant

SOC 2 Type II Certified

Annual third-party audit of security controls covering availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy โ€” verified against AICPA Trust Services Criteria. Critical for an integration platform that handles cross-system data flows.

ISO 27001 Aligned

Information security management system aligned to international standards for risk management, data protection, and continuous improvement โ€” applied to all integration endpoints and data transformation pipelines.

WCAG 2.1 AA Compliant

All administrative interfaces โ€” pipeline designer, monitoring dashboards, connector configuration โ€” meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards with keyboard navigation, screen reader support, and 4.5:1 color contrast ratios.

MFIPPA Compliant

Complete audit trail for all cross-system data flows โ€” tracking what personal information moved between systems, when, and by whose authority. Master data privacy controls with consent tracking per MFIPPA data sharing requirements.

Canadian Data Residency

All integration data โ€” event streams, transformation logs, master data records, and audit trails โ€” stored and processed exclusively in Canadian data centres. No cross-border data transfers. Full data sovereignty guaranteed.

PIPEDA Compliant

Audit trail for all cross-system data flows involving personal information. Data lineage tracking ensures PIPEDA accountability for every integration that touches citizen data, with consent verification at integration boundaries.

The Journey

From Fragmentation to Clarity

01The Problem

Data Silos, Brittle Integrations, Manual Processes

Your municipality runs 8โ€“12 disconnected systems โ€” tax, utility, permits, CRM, GIS, finance โ€” each with its own copy of citizen and property data. Point-to-point integrations are undocumented FTP scripts maintained by one person. Provincial data from MPAC and Teranet is loaded manually via spreadsheets. A single address change requires updates in 5+ systems.

8โ€“12Disconnected systems
02The Cost

Hidden Integration Tax

Manual data entry across systems (45+ minutes per property change), silent integration failures going undetected for days, FIR reporting requiring 3 weeks of manual data compilation, and IT staff spending 60%+ of their time maintaining fragile integrations instead of innovating. Data inconsistencies between systems cause billing errors, compliance gaps, and resident frustration.

$150K+Annual integration cost
03The Solution

One Hub. Every System. Real-Time.

Civic Integration Hub replaces point-to-point chaos with a centralized integration platform. Master data management establishes golden records. The event bus delivers real-time synchronization. Pre-built provincial connectors automate MPAC, Teranet, and ServiceOntario data exchange. Visual pipeline designer enables self-service ETL. Complete audit trail for every data flow.

The Challenge

Why the Status Quo Fails

Canadian municipalities operate dozens of departmental systems that were never designed to work together. Without a centralized integration platform, data is duplicated, inconsistent, and manually reconciled โ€” consuming IT resources, creating compliance risks, and degrading service quality for residents.

Citizen, property, and business data duplicated across tax, utility, permit, CRM, GIS, and financial systems. No authoritative golden record. A resident's address change in one system doesn't propagate to others โ€” causing misdirected notices, billing errors, and resident frustration.

MPAC assessment rolls loaded via spreadsheet imports. Teranet ownership changes processed by manually comparing land registry reports. ServiceOntario vital statistics handled via email. Each provincial data exchange is a manual, error-prone process with multi-day lag.

Custom FTP scripts, batch files, and Access database macros connecting legacy systems โ€” undocumented, unmaintained, and understood by only 1โ€“2 staff members. Any system upgrade risks breaking integrations with cascading failures across departments.

Failed data transfers go undetected for days. No dashboard showing integration health. Error investigation requires manual log review across multiple systems. No SLA monitoring for integration availability or data freshness.

No audit trail for data flowing between systems. MFIPPA requests involving cross-system data require manual investigation across each system individually. FIR and PSAB reporting demand weeks of manual data reconciliation.

Estimated Annual Cost of Status Quo

$170K โ€“ $340K

Every resident deserves a government that remembers who they are. Civic Integration Hub was designed to make that standard โ€” one record, one platform, one consistent experience across every department and channel.
