The challenge

Calgary Stampede had no centralized project management system, no reliable inventory tracking, and no maintenance logging structure. Teams relied on disconnected spreadsheets, which created waste, version-control problems, and stalled project visibility.

The solution

The implementation introduced a phased Smartsheet ecosystem: PMO architecture, custom inventory management, maintenance logs, role-based dashboards, and tailored training for a broad user group.

The outcome

  • $100K+ in annual waste eliminated.
  • 185 users deployed across multiple departments.
  • 25% year over year improvement in project completion.
  • 25 custom sheets, 10 role-based dashboards, and 50+ hours of tailored training.
