About us
Elevate is a consulting practice designed to develop, engage, and elevate smart city solutions for mayors across the country. We have reimagined city life by developing an intelligent framework, leveraging a LEAN methodology and an efficiency model that places people at the center of our purpose.
Leveraging this framework, we advise mayors by offering clearly defined city solutions that resolve priority city issues that can be scaled across communities and replicated across cities, all while delivering profitability.
The result is a visible impact on citizen engagement, transformed infrastructure, and improved city services.

Reimagining and Rebuilding
We recognize the need for modern cities to become increasingly advanced and connected. But despite the countless resources from both the private and public sector, real improvement has been scarce. Instead, we’ve watched as the country launches fragmented projects that are unsustainable and unscalable.
We are supporting city leaders as they emerge on a global scale to develop an advanced framework and to achieve required sustainability for their cities. By redesigning the traditional RFP / city process (its purpose), we enable mayors to author a new framework for the city and partners that can secure investments, scale across communities, replicate success across cities, and deliver the required profitability.

Our approach
Pro-Bono Advisory Services
Our pro-bono advisory services are available to mayors to help resolve critical and high priority city issues at a rapid pace. We collaborate with technology specialists to prototype future solutions that can be integrated and expanded across departments and communities at no cost to the city.
Contracted Research & Development Services
Our contracted research and development services are available to commercial partners. We redefine the usage and delivery of the partners offering by redirecting purpose and function to accommodate actual city requirements. We also introduce our smart city framework to ensure the highest social impact and the ability to scale, replicate and deliver profitability for both the city and commercial partner.
