Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

The project 'eHealth Saskatchewan' is a verified Treasury Board Crown Corporation providing critical healthcare IT infrastructure for the province of Saskatchewan (pop. ~1.2M). While the submission itself is of very low quality (vague claims, incorrect revenue terminology, lack of specific metrics), the underlying entity has undeniable Real-World Utility and monopoly-level Traction. The evaluation verifies the scale (~$150M+ budget, 1M+ users) but heavily penalizes the Response Quality and Technical Innovation sections due to lack of provided detail. The final score reflects a 'Large Scale' entity dragged down by a poor submission package.
