Recently, Williams Consulting has developed innovative cloud technology called Path Data Management System which is an affordable quality Health Planning and Management tool (www.pathdms.ca). We built a platform that is an electronic client and participant-based tracking and data management solution for First Nations Health and Social Service program delivery. The PathDMS is customized to specifically capture the goals and objectives of each First Nation or Aboriginal organization by linking annual workplans of each user to multi-year workplans and funding lines. It is user-friendly and responsive to the unique reporting requirements of each First Nation and has been so well-received that we are already being asked to add housing and education modules to the software.
