The problem we solve

IRCC allocates over $3.2 billion to settlement services. Every dollar requires reporting into iCARE. Large agencies use enterprise systems that cost six figures. Small agencies — the majority of the 520+ SPOs across Canada — are left manually entering data from spreadsheets.

Staff spend up to 40% of their time on data transcription instead of direct client care. Mistakes risk rejected submissions, delayed funding, and compliance issues. Budget 2025 makes this worse — eligibility windows are shrinking, and IRCC is moving to outcomes-focused auditing.

Optimal Works eliminates the gap between your spreadsheets and iCARE. Keep your existing workflow. We handle the formatting and validation.
