How often do you publish new insights?

Can we cite or quote your work in our own research?
Yes. All published articles are free to cite, quote, and link to with attribution to ProD Consulting OS and a link back to the original article URL. For commercial reuse — embedding charts in a paid report, syndicating an article on another publication — email Contact press / media inquiries.
What language is the content published in?
Primary publication is English (Canadian). Selected pillar articles are translated to Canadian French and posted under the /fr/news path when localization is complete. Video walkthroughs include English captions and machine-translated French subtitles.
Where does the source data in your articles come from?
Three sources: (1) anonymized aggregated benchmarks from ProD Consulting OS engagements with consent for use, (2) public industry research from Gartner, McKinsey, Deloitte, IDC, and Statistics Canada cited inline, and (3) primary research conducted by our methodology team on specific topics. Every statistic is sourced or marked illustrative.
Do your video walkthroughs include transcripts?
