What InfoStages Advisors does

InfoStages Advisors Ltd. is a private boutique advisory and delivery firm headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, founded in 2012 by Managing Director Dan Ciocan (MBA BSc). The company specializes in what it calls 'Operational Intelligence' — a methodology that explicitly combines Business Intelligence with Process Improvement — and sells six interconnected advisory service lines: Data Strategy, Information Governance, Cybersecurity – External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Geospatial Analytics, Data Analytics and Machine Learning, and Business Process Guidance. Underlying capabilities span predictive and behavioral analytics, anomaly detection for cyber exposure, computer-vision-based satellite imagery analysis, machine-learning implementation, and process-mining-style intervention design, delivered through 2–3-day workshops and longer consulting engagements.

The firm operates a sales-led, direct-engagement go-to-market model targeting enterprise and public-sector clients undergoing digital transformation, with no channel partners, marketplace listings, or disclosed pricing. Revenue is generated entirely through professional services engagements that are quote-based and custom-scoped, sourced via the firm's website contact form and a single published phone line. Operating geographies are described as international with a North American base, and select services (notably Geospatial and EASM) are delivered in partnership with external seasoned experts rather than purely in-house.

Public material is limited and not visibly refreshed beyond 2020: the website copyright remains at '2012-2020,' there are no disclosed funding rounds, M&A, named customers, social media profiles, app or API surfaces, patents, awards, or regulatory actions on record. The implication for diligence is that the company should be evaluated as a small, founder-led advisory practice whose scale, growth cadence, and current operating activity cannot be independently verified from public sources.
