Aboriginal Governance & Management ICT Solutions
"The portal to tomorrow is today... the portal to the future is Information Technology"
"At the turn of the last century, our people were left out of the industrial revolution...we cannot
afford to be left out of the information revolution - never before has there been such equitable
access to participate in the global economy then through information technology".
Matthew Coon Come, AFN National Chief 1999.
First People's Plus offers Information Communication Technologies (ICT) solutions to Aboriginal communities and
organizations that provide the technology tools to exercise true self-governance; provide accountable and
transparent financial administration; and position communities for economic growth by capturing emerging
opportunities out of the global knowledge based economy.
Meeting the challenges of government mandates
Governments must continue to implement policies, procedures, and controls that improve information
availability, accuracy, and privacy. Regardless of where you are located, First People's Plus can help your emerging
government meet the challenges of integrating information technology solutions into your processes. This will
inherently improve corporate accountability by streamlining document processes, increasing accuracy of government
to government submissions, and reducing risks associated with creating, exchanging, and archiving documents.
Using existing technologies, we can help your organization:
- Increase reliability of government to government submissions using PDF-based archives,
- Maintain document authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality, and
- Generate real-time financial statements from enterprise applications.
Culture, Customs and Traditional Democratic Government:
Central to traditional Aboriginal governance models is the principle of full participation of the whole community.
More foundational to this principle of democratic participation through Clan Systems and the notion of the nuclear
"extended family" - is the standard of planning and preparation for the coming seven generations. The execution of
true democracy in the Information Age has resulted in many new challenges for First Nations governments.
First People's Plus is ready to help in the transformation of government into the Information Age.
The Information Revolution
Information Technology has revolutionized the way business is conducted in the world, how information is
transferred and readily available and making way for a new universal paradigm known as the
"global knowledge based society".
First People's Plus is at the forefront in the development of ICT solutions for Aboriginal and First Nations to assume
self-governance in the management and accountability of their financial, economic, capital and human resources.
A set of Enterprise software solutions is at the heart of 'Strategically Positioning' First Nations to control
and manage their resources. This technology framework enables communities to organize and begin to seek global
economic development opportunities for trade, cultural transfer and to realize their own destiny. First People's Plus
promotes sovereignty and First Nations treaty based nation-to-nation relationship building.
