New Solutions Division will bring together global business and technology solutions to drive client success in Canada

Maximus, a leading partner and provider of government services worldwide, announced today the launch of their new Canadian Solutions Division. The Maximus Canada Solutions Division, led by Michael Oas, will develop and adapt leading edge international solutions to the Canadian context, bringing together technical and business expertise to enhance client success.

Oas, a creative and innovative problem solver, has more than 25 years of industry experience in business transformation, pioneering multiple public cloud implementations for the province of Ontario and Canadian Federal government. In his role leading the Solutions Division, Oas will demonstrate Maximus Canada’s strategic corporate direction to develop and deliver customer-focused and digitally enabled solutions for clients.

“Clients have often indicated that it’s a full-time job staying up to date on the latest technical developments,” said Christian Gingras, Managing Director for Maximus in Canada. “Michael and the Solutions team fulfill just that role. As a thought leader dedicated to client success, he will act as a technology and business ‘interpreter,’ providing strategic guidance on how to deliver modern solutions to meet client needs. Our clients expect continuous innovation, and the solutions division will lead these engagements, leveraging our Canadian and global expertise.”

The solutions division will architect and design fully integrated IT and business solutions, lead any development and integration activities for successful production release, and continuously improve existing solutions to meet emerging business needs for Maximus’ Canadian clients.

In addition to heading the Solutions Division, Oas will also join provincial and national conferences in his role of thought leader, discussing with industry and government representatives how today’s technical modernizations are fueling new enhancements to citizen services.

“We know that demand for digital transformation is outpacing the government’s ability to deliver in a confident and secure way,” said Oas. “Maximus has proven experience working with government partners to ensure continuity of service while transforming outcomes for programs and citizens. This requires full integration between citizen-centric business processes and innovative technologies. We’ll unite these capabilities to deliver integrated solutions, delivering efficient and effective solutions through a unique and holistic approach.”
