Victoria-based low-code development and integration company AOT Technologies has won a prestigious national award for its digital transformation tool formsflow.ai.

The Digital Transformation Award from IT World Canada recognizes formsflow.ai’s role in helping the BC government achieve its digital transformation goals.

Accepting the award, co-founder Praveen Ramachandran said the pandemic shook up the company, and formsflow.ai fits in with a broader strategy of setting exciting new priorities.

“We wanted to reinvent ourselves and be a more product-centered solutions company,” Praveen said, “and with our years of experience working with the BC public sector and other enterprises we came up with this open-source framework that could accelerate digital transformation projects.”

“We took all this learning and experience we had working with government, reinventing the wheel several times, ” said another co-founder, George Philip, “and turned that into a product called formsflow.ai, which allows governments to rapidly create business applications.”

George said he hoped the Digital Transformation Award would help further promote formsflow.ai to Canadian CIOs and other tech leaders.

The award, in the small private-sector category, was presented at ITWC’s Digital Transformation Conference in Toronto, which brought together Canadian thought leaders over two days to discuss the challenges and opportunities that digital transformation presents to Canadian companies.
