TAYLOR WARWICK CONSULTING

TaylorWarwick is focused on positively impacting the telecommunications environment in Canada and leveraging broadband ICT to strengthen Canadian capabilities in research, innovation, and entrepreneurship. With its unique blend of academic and applied innovation experience and business acumen, economic models, and engineering capabilities, TaylorWarwick has become a leading Canadian-based consultancy dedicated to helping clients develop, deploy, and operate world class ICT infrastructure and ser... vice sets in their developments and municipalities. In so doing, TaylorWarwick not only enables clients to optimize economic development opportunities, but to compete with the best in class, anywhere in the world. Together, TaylorWarwick and the Olds Institute for Community & Regional Development successfully established the first and to date, only, sustainable community-based FTTH network in Canada: O-Net now offers every resident and business in Olds, Alberta, gigabit/s Internet services and a complete triple-play services portfolio. e.Commerce Services provided the regulatory framework on which these operations were based. TaylorWarwick, together with Ventus Development Services, helped asses the potential economic, cultural, and social benefits of high-speed Internet access to communities in the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo (RMWB), including Janvier, Fort Chipewyan, Fort Mackay, Anzac, Gregoire Lake Estates, and Conklin. Our strategic planning efforts provided a variety of novel hybrid fibre/wireless options capable of delivering reliable and affordable high-speed Internet access. In partnership with ViTel consulting, TaylorWarwick completed wireless propagation analyses for 1 848 fixed wireless towers in support of the Rural Broadband Coverage Analysis project led by the Alberta Association of Municipalities and provided wireless design and economic modeling support for the rural broadband initiatives in the Counties of Parkland, Greenview, Leduc, Lac Ste Anne, and Woodlands. As lead Strategist, TaylorWarwick completed a Global ICT Environmental Scan for TRLabs and Alberta Advanced Education and Technology (AET). The scan was designed to provide 'up-to-date background, trends, and statistics for opportunities and challenges found globally, nationally, and locally in the ICT sector' that AET could use to inform policy development initiatives within the provincial government.More
