Real-world operational transformation for three leading Canadian organizations with SmartSimple Cloud
In the heart of Canada's innovation landscape, research grants drive progress and foster discovery. However, managing these grants efficiently and effectively is a challenge many organizations face. As Canadian grant-providing institutions search for streamlined solutions, SmartSimple Cloud emerges at the forefront. Dive into the transformational journeys of three leading Canadian research granters, SickKids Foundation, Child Development Institute (CDI), and Saskatchewan Health Research Foundation (SHRF) who embraced the power of SmartSimple Cloud to better manage their research grant processes.
SickKids Foundation: Enhancing national collaborations in pediatric research
While funding Canada's future child health game changers, SickKids Foundation was battling fragmented data systems that stifled its dynamic national research operations. Effective communication with national collaborators became a pressing need. With SmartSimple Cloud, SickKids Foundation realized:
- Centralized data management: A single platform consolidates all project data, ensuring accuracy and efficiency.
- Unified team efforts: Integration across submission and peer review stages for better, faster decision-making.

Child Development Institute (CDI): Building a robust implementation data system for scaling and tracking evidence-based children and youth mental health and crime prevention programs
Pushing boundaries in child intervention programs, CDI was hamstrung by its reliance on spreadsheet-dominated processes. With the implementation of a SNAP National Expansion strategy, CDI needed an innovative and intuitive system for this major scaling project of implementing SNAP in over 100 communities across Canada. The system needed to track and monitor all the critical activities across the implementation process including outcome/fidelity monitoring for its extensive network of key stakeholders and contacts. The adoption of SmartSimple Cloud brought forth:
- Consistent data collection: Standardized processes ensure data consistency, reduce errors, and increase trust in all insights.
- Efficient workflow management: Tailored workflows dramatically reduce administrative delays, achieving more in less time.
- Transparent outcome monitoring and tracking: Clearer oversight of data every step of the way.
- Real-time data analysis: Seeing a client’s progress through their treatment journey.
