The Mandate

CargoM, the Greater Montreal Metropolitan Logistics Cluster, is a key player in the region’s economic development, bringing together major stakeholders in the transportation and logistics sectors. In response to the rapid transformations affecting the industry, CargoM launched a structured strategic planning initiative for the 2026–2028 period.

The objective of this mandate was to support CargoM in building a robust strategic plan, informed by a deep understanding of its internal and external environments, and strengthened through meaningful engagement with its members and partners.

Innovitech supported CargoM throughout this process by delivering a comprehensive analysis, clear decision-making tools, and a mobilizing framework of strategic directions for the next few years.

Deliverables 

Innovitech led the development of CargoM’s strategic planning through the following activities: 

  • Internal environment analysis: outlined the priorities and vision of the management team and board of directors; 

  • External environment analysis: identified sector trends and benchmarking against similar cluster organizations both in Montreal (sectoral clusters) and internationally (in the U.S. and Europe); 

  • Definition of key issues, strategic directions, and objectives (2026–2028): ensuring CargoM’s positioning remains coherent and value-driven within Greater Montreal’s transportation and logistics ecosystem.

« As part of our 2026–2028 strategic plan, uniting the vision of all our members, each with their own diverse interests and perspectives, as no small feat. Yet, the Innovitech team accomplished it brilliantly. Their rigorous approach, attentive listening, and ability to bring people together transformed this challenge into a rewarding and motivating experience for everyone involved.

Thanks to this work, we now have a clear and shared vision for the future of CargoM. This experience reminded us how human-centered expert support can make a difference when building a project that inspires and engages all its stakeholders. We are more ready than ever to continue our mission: making Greater Montreal a high-performance, innovative, multimodal platform benefiting all those who contribute to it. »
