Economic development, housing management, and infrastructure project delivery for BC First Nations communities — with the experience and cultural respect this work demands.
Eddy Davis has served as CAO, Executive Director, and Director of Public Works for BC First Nations bands — not as an outside contractor, but as a trusted leader inside the organization. He understands band governance, Chief and Council dynamics, the weight of community accountability, and the complexity of delivering results for members.
That experience is the foundation of every engagement. Tumbleweed Consulting brings senior executive capacity to your community on a contract basis — for the projects and programs where you need that depth, without the long-term overhead of a full-time hire.
"Eddy's expertise in strategic housing support, health and safety, and navigating complex community projects has been invaluable. He brings a level of professionalism and knowledge that is hard to find." — Richard Gage, P.Eng · CAO & Former Director of Public Works, Tla'amin Nation
Own-source revenue is the foundation of community self-determination. Eddy works with First Nations leadership to identify, develop, and manage economic development opportunities that align with your community's values, territorial priorities, and long-term vision.
Drawing on 17+ years of working within First Nations governance structures, Eddy brings a practical, community-accountable approach — not a generic consultant's framework applied from the outside.
TumbleTracker is a purpose-built housing asset management tool for First Nations communities.
TumbleTracker.ca ↗Effective housing management is one of the most critical and complex responsibilities in band administration. Eddy has managed CMHC-funded housing programs, delivered housing construction projects for remote communities, and served as an interim housing manager — giving him the practical depth that textbook consultants simply don't have.
Whether your community needs interim housing management capacity, support delivering a CMHC program, or advice navigating a complex housing project, this is work Eddy has done repeatedly across BC.
Purpose-built housing asset management and maintenance tracking for First Nations housing programs.
Visit TumbleTracker.ca ↗First Nations capital projects — from community water and sewer systems to fire halls, health centres, roads, and flood control — require a project manager who understands both construction delivery and the governance context of band administration. Eddy has delivered all of these, including in remote and difficult-to-access communities across BC.
As a former Director of Public Works, he managed entire public works departments — coordinating contractors, managing budgets, reporting to Chief and Council, and delivering projects on federal and provincial timelines.
Managing a First Nations housing portfolio with spreadsheets is a problem Eddy lived firsthand. TumbleTracker was built to fix it — a housing asset management and maintenance tracking platform designed specifically for the way First Nations housing programs actually work.
No bloated enterprise software. No systems designed for municipalities or private property managers. TumbleTracker speaks the language of band housing — CMHC units, Section 95, member homeowners, and the maintenance realities of remote communities.
