2025: A year in Review

December 29, 2025

As 2025 comes to a close, the team at MuniPaaS is already looking ahead to an even stronger year supporting the municipalities and public sector organizations we’re proud to serve.

This past year was a big one. We expanded our delivery footprint, deepened our platform expertise, and continued helping local governments modernize how they engage residents and manage services. All while keeping the lights on, improving our service delivery and accelarating the project framework.

While a lot has evolved, one thing hasn’t changed: our commitment to practical, scalable solutions that actually work in the real world of municipal government.

Here’s a look back at what made 2025 a standout year for MuniPaaS and what’s fueling our momentum into 2026.

Strengthening our Municipal Platforms on our Core Values

In 2025, we continued to refine and deliver our core municipal architectures across CRM, 311, service management, and ePermitting. Our focus stayed exactly where it belongs and aligned to our core values:

Accountable

In 2025, we held ourselves accountable by delivering platforms municipalities can actually run and sustain. We emphasized best practice configurations, thorough knowledge transfer, and solutions designed to fit real municipal operations without requiring heroics to maintain. We owned our work from design through post go live support, stood behind every delivery, and backed it up with results by maintaining a 100 percent customer retention rate on our Annual Managed Services Plan.

Trusted

This year, we earned trust by consistently taking a no-nonsense approach and making decisions grounded in long-term platform sustainability, even when that meant slowing things down or saying no. We paused and cancelled a project to force clarity around requirements rather than introduce technical debt that would have cost the client down the road. We also delivered the Peel Region Resident Portal using modern authentication methods, including MFA, token-based, and SMS authentication improving security while lowering barriers to access and meeting WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards. Across every engagement, we focused on honest guidance, durable architecture, and solutions municipalities can confidently build on for years to come.

Innovative

Our innovation in 2025 was practical and proven. We reused what worked, improved what didn’t, and applied lessons learned across every project to deliver faster implementations and stronger, more resilient architectures. We expanded our roadmap with new connectors to common municipal platforms, including integrations with payment systems, making Salesforce Public Sector Solutions a more practical and viable platform for municipalities. The result was solutions that scale cleanly as needs grow without adding unnecessary complexity

Delivered Roadmap Items

311 and Service Management Solutions

In delivering on our roadmap, we successfully delivered and enhanced multiple 311 and service management implementations, helping municipalities improve how they receive, route, and resolve service requests. We delivered several components to our 311 solution.

  • ArcGIS Integration Enhancements: Ability to overlay multiple feature layers, Proximity calculations, Waste Collection zone Integrations and better compliance to Web Accessibility in using interactive maps
  • Payment Processor Integrations: We've added Bambora Worldpay and Authorize.net to our supported payment platforms, while maintaining strict PCI-DSS compliance

Licence, Permitting and Inspections

Powered by Salesforce Industries Cloud, Salesforce Public Sector Solutions provides capabilities for municipalities, we've built on our Development Applications accelerator to expand to a variety of Land, Engineering and Building Permits

Deepening Delivery Expertise

MuniPaaS continued to sharpen its focus on local government–specific delivery in 2025. With each project and new hires, we further refined our:

  • Implementation methodologies
  • Practice Management methodologies
  • Internal Accountability

This growing body of experience allows us to move faster, design smarter, and reduce risk for every municipality we work with.

Partnerships

In 2025, our partnerships were essential to staying connected to the municipal industry and aligning our innovation with real-world needs and our core values. We worked closely with key organizations and platform partners through conferences, workshops, and hosted events, including:

  • Participating with the Municipal Waste Association, AGCCP, and MSDO at their annual conferences and industry workshops
  • Engaging directly with municipal professionals across public works, community safety, and operations
  • Partnering with Salesforce through hosted events at the Agentforce World Tour
  • Collaborating with sponsors who help keep us informed, challenged, and grounded in municipal reality

These partnerships strengthen our understanding of the industry and help ensure our solutions remain practical, trusted, and built for long-term municipal success.

Responsible Use of AI

MuniPaaS continued to take a thoughtful and practical approach to artificial intelligence. Our focus is on identifying where AI can responsibly improve municipal operations, reduce administrative burden, and support better decision-making. We explored and implemented AI-assisted capabilities such as intelligent request classification, data insights, and workflow support, while maintaining strict controls around data governance, security, and transparency. For us, AI (powered by Salesforce Agentforce) is a tool to augment municipal staff, not replace them, and any use of AI must be explainable, secure, and aligned with public sector trust and accountability.

Recognition

MuniPaaS was recognized as one of The Globe and Mail’s Top Growing Companies in Canada. This recognition reflects the steady, disciplined growth of our business and the trust municipalities place in us to deliver meaningful, long-term value. Our growth has been driven by a clear focus on municipal outcomes, strong delivery fundamentals, and a commitment to building solutions that scale responsibly.

Looking Ahead to 2026

As we move into 2026, MuniPaaS is focused on growing the right way. That means continuing to deliver purpose-built municipal solutions and proven delivery approaches, while staying honest with our customers even when the easy answer is not the right one.

We are equally committed to growing our team without sacrificing the service, quality, and accountability our customers expect. As we expand into new markets, we will do it deliberately by investing in our people, strengthening our delivery practices, and protecting the level of care that has earned our clients’ trust.

Our goal remains simple. Help municipalities modernize service delivery, break down silos, and build platforms that genuinely serve their communities, not just today but for years to come.

As 2025 comes to a close, our commitment is unchanged. We will help local governments succeed without unnecessary complexity, wasted effort, or vendor nonsense. If 2026 is about scaling, expanding into new markets, or finally getting real value from your platform investment, we are ready.

Let’s get to work.
