IOTA Field
Complex work, scoped before it starts
Professional engagements for organisations that need the shape of the problem settled before anyone commits to a solution. Delivered by named people, with the boundaries written down.

Four ways in
Work with us on a piece of work
A scoped engagement: what is included, what is not, and who is accountable, written down before anything is signed.
What we are engaged to doInvest
Capital into ventures the practice builds and operates. There is no listing page for this and there should not be one — it starts as a conversation.
Start with a noteBuild a venture
An opportunity that needs a structure around it. The venture is defined first — the assumptions, the roles and the first testable step — and the team is assembled for it.
Who actually deliversPartner strategically
Two organisations with something to build together. Which entity you would be contracting with is set out before anything else.
How the ecosystem is arranged
What this is
People, knowledge and organisations, connected to deliver complex work
Most consultancies hire ahead of demand and then find work for the people they hired. That is what makes an engagement expand past the problem it was bought to solve. IOTA Field is built the other way round: the problem is scoped first, and the team is assembled for it from practitioners whose delivery record already exists and can be checked.
The engagements are contracted by IOTA Sustainable Developers Canada. Where work is regulated — accounting, tax, legal, securities — it is scoped and signed off by an appropriately licensed professional, named on the record, and no fee is quoted by anyone else.
What we are trying to build is narrower than it sounds: a way of buying complex work where the boundaries are written down before money moves, and where the people doing it are identifiable. Most of the machinery on this site exists to make those two things true rather than claimed.
How it works
A conversation first
Tell us the situation in a few lines and a person comes back to you, at no charge, to work out whether this is a fit. If it is not, we will say so — a scoped engagement that should not have started costs both sides more than a straight answer.
Scope before commitment
What is included, what is not, what we need from you, and how long it takes — written down before anything is signed. Regulated work is always scoped with the appropriate licensed professional.
Delivered by named people
Every engagement names the practitioners who will do it, each one having separately agreed to commercial work, with a delivery record that is visible rather than asserted.

Ask a question first
An assistant that answers only from what is published here, and links to the page each answer came from. If it does not know, it says so — which is the useful part.
