Symplicity Designs started over a decade ago as a process improvement and strategy consultancy in Atlantic Canada. We have worked with more than 500 organizations, guiding family businesses and mid-sized enterprises through turnarounds and major change.
Along the way, we realized that artificial intelligence was not a threat to human judgement but an unparalleled force multiplier. Guided by the belief that people who know how to use AI will replace those who don't, we transformed ourselves into an AI-powered partner.
We believe in using technology responsibly and ethically, and we are committed to building resilient organizations that contribute positively to their communities.
We are an engine of improvement. We believe in results, not reports.
We walk through the messy middle with you and stay until the job is done.
People stay at the centre. We build capability, confidence, and culture.
Our term for seasoned strategists, process improvement specialists, engineers, financial leaders, and change makers who know how to turn complexity into clarity.
Guiding this team is our CEO and founding partner, Matt Symes, a serial company builder who has helped more than 500 organizations scale, recover, and navigate complex change. He has been honoured as Business Leader of the Year by the Halifax Chamber of Commerce and recognized as one of Atlantic Canada's Top 50 CEOs in four consecutive years.
Our Organizational Designers bring decades of experience across healthcare, finance, manufacturing, technology, and professional services, alongside fresh perspectives from education, communications, construction, retail, and operations. We are bilingual, multi-disciplinary, and community-minded.
It is why we commit a portion of our time every year to the social sector. We combine analytical rigor with creativity, strategy with empathy, and human judgement amplified by AI.
We work with businesses from $500K to billion-dollar organizations. We embed the skills, confidence, and systems that help you thrive long after our work is done.
We don't just advise. We co-design and implement change alongside you, then train your people to sustain it long after we leave.
We embed the skills, systems, and confidence your team needs to keep improving once we are gone.
Decades of process-improvement and strategy know-how, enhanced by cutting-edge AI tools and the 10-80-10 method.
No pitch. No pressure. Just a conversation about where the real constraint is and what workflow might be worth rebuilding first.
