GRID Audit reviews your municipal website the way a resident, a regulator and a search engine would. You get a score, the gaps that matter most, and a prioritized action plan, followed by a follow-up review to check the fixes landed.
Pages added over the years by different people. Nobody has looked at the whole thing in a while.
Minutes, bylaws and forms exist, but residents can’t find them, and neither can search engines.
Privacy, accessibility and online-posting requirements keep moving. Keeping up is a job on its own.
Staff are busy running the municipality, not testing links and page speeds.
Every page residents can reach, checked against a 105-point list.
Legal compliance, digital presence, technical performance, content quality and economic development.
A prioritized action plan, most important fixes first, then a follow-up review to confirm progress.
Whether privacy, accessibility and council-transparency information is where residents and regulators expect it.
How your municipality shows up in search, on maps and on mobile.
Speed, security basics, broken links and pages that fail on phones.
Outdated pages, missing documents and plain-language clarity.
Whether a business or new resident can find what they need to choose your community.
A clear list of fixes in order of impact, with a follow-up review.
You get about 10 seconds. People often leave a web page within 10–20 seconds.1 And 73% of executives and site selectors plan to check an economic development website on their next site search.2 Will yours have the answers?
When a business or investor sizes up your community, your website is usually the first stop, and often the only one. If they can’t quickly find the community profile, the incentives, available land or a person to call, they move on to the next town. Nobody tells you. You just never hear from them.
Population, growth and what makes your community a good bet. Can they find it in a click or two?
Tax incentives, programs and support for new businesses, written so an outsider understands them.
Available land, zoning and servicing, with maps that work on a phone.
A name, a phone number and an email for economic development, not just a general inbox.
Your website is the front door residents use most. GRID Audit looks at it street by street: what’s easy to find, what’s missing, and what’s quietly broken.
The result isn’t a 90-page report nobody reads. It’s a ranked list of fixes your team can actually get through.
Saskatchewan’s Bill 43, The Municipalities Modernization and Red Tape Reduction Act, requires municipalities to post meeting minutes, financial statements and bylaws on a publicly available website, on a phased schedule.
GRID Audit checks whether those records are on your site today and whether residents can actually find them, so you know where you stand well before each date.
Bill 43 receives Royal Assent. Most amendments take effect.
Online posting of meeting minutes and financial statements comes into force.
Online posting of bylaws currently in force comes into force.
We review what anyone can see on your public website. No logins or private systems needed.
Every finding is ranked so your team spends time where it matters.
Built in Saskatchewan by a sitting city councillor, for the people who keep municipalities running.
Prairie towns were built around the grain elevator: one tall, practical structure the whole community relied on. GRID is built the same way. One platform, eight modules, each one solving a real problem municipalities and local businesses deal with every week.
People. Process. Potential. · Small towns build big tomorrows. · Simplify today. Stronger tomorrow.
