Jacques Whitford serves the governments, agencies and corporations of Canada, the United States and five other continents. We continue building our reputation by paying close attention to government priorities, constraints and expectations, and the delivery of results that conform to them.
Our government sector team has both diverse and specific skills and experience focused on a range of specialized government agency and corporate requirements. We apply a full-range of services to assist government departments, institutions and agencies to meet the needs of the public. Many of our staff have previously held positions in government, giving us additional insight into the needs and operations of various departments. We use the most effective, value-added tools - internet-based technologies and 'real-time' information systems - for risk, environmental management, due diligence and strategic asset planning.
