Three New Partnerships

Our team is always excited to share when we've expanded our client list and this month, we've got three great partnerships to announce. Capstone is very pleased to be working with the Department of Municipal Affairs and Housing to assist the Office of the Fire Marshal in reviewing current business practices and operations.

We are also delighted to announce that we have been named one of Inverness County's preferred vendors for upcoming projects that align with our expertise. We are really looking forward to getting to work on some keys projects as our team has a lot of experience working with government at both the municipal and provincial level.

This last one we're really excited about as it's Capstone's first ever engagement in the US! We've partnered with King County Emergency Services in Washington State. King County is modernizing its public safety communication system and Capstone will be assisting the team with identifying and documenting precise project requirements and crafting comprehensive RFPs to attract top-tier vendors. This engagement gives us the opportunity to tap into our vast emergency services expertise having worked with many call handling technologies.
