MICHA GUTMANIS, BSc, MPl, PMP

Associate Partner / Sustainability & Decarbonization Lead Consultant | Strategic Consulting and Advisory Services, CIMA+

Transportation decarbonization is ultimately an operational transformation challenge, requiring organizations to align infrastructure, energy, policy, and fleet operations within complex and evolving constraints. Micha Gutmanis leads CIMA+’s Transportation Decarbonization Advisory Practice with a focus on turning ambitious net-zero commitments into structured, executable pathways grounded in technical and financial reality.

She advises fleet operators, municipalities, transit agencies, and institutional clients across Canada on the transition to zero-emission vehicles, guiding decisions that balance long-term strategy with near-term operational demands. Her work spans the full lifecycle of decarbonization initiatives, from defining fleet transition pathways and assessing infrastructure and grid readiness to shaping investment strategies and supporting implementation.

Drawing on experience across public, private, and non-profit sectors, Micha has led large-scale transit electrification programs, municipal fleet strategies, and complex feasibility assessments for diverse fleet applications. Her approach integrates policy, infrastructure planning, financial modelling, and stakeholder alignment—ensuring that decarbonization strategies are not only technically sound, but operationally viable.

Through her involvement in national electric mobility initiatives, she contributes to advancing practical solutions that reflect the realities facing Canadian public and private fleets, helping organizations move from ambition to execution with confidence.
