1. Understand the problem
We look at your current data, process, and pressure points to understand what is slowing you down.
Pick one. Or let us recommend where to start — most clients begin with a data audit and we go from there.
Every service has a clear deliverable. No vague consulting, no endless discovery. Here is exactly what each project produces.
Tell us your biggest frustration and we'll reply with one recommendation and a rough price range. No obligation.
Send us your frustrationFilter by who you are — or browse all. Every card shows exactly what you get and roughly what it costs.
"Know who's certified, what's expiring, and who's ready for site — before it becomes a problem."
"That monthly reporting template your prime contractor sent you? We fill it out correctly and get it submitted on time — every time."

These scenarios reflect the kinds of problems CommonGround is built to solve. Every engagement is scoped to your specific situation.
"A restaurant owner in Fort McMurray was tracking sales, staff hours, and supply costs across three different spreadsheets — none of which matched. CommonGround consolidated everything into one clean file with a monthly scorecard. The owner now reviews one page every Monday morning instead of spending Sunday evening reconciling numbers."
"An oil sands subcontractor was manually compiling workforce compliance data every month to submit to their prime operator. The process took one person two full days and still had errors. CommonGround built a standardized intake form and automated summary report. Submission now takes under two hours and passes review on the first submission."
"A nonprofit with three staff members was spending 6–8 hours per quarter preparing funder reports by pulling data from multiple sources. CommonGround built a simple dashboard that pulls everything into one view and generates a ready-to-submit report in minutes."
These are illustrative scenarios based on common problems CommonGround is built to solve. Client results will vary by project scope.
