We have a relatively long history with Paradigm. Working with our employees, a team of developers led by Paradigm developed and implemented the new system that also had to go-live in conjunction with three other government agencies. This all went off without a hitch!! The success of the project led to the creation a system that was the first in Canada. Their motto should be: "They get it done!"
