"We put the CAN in CANT."
A working cant sawmill on Highway 16 west of Smithers, BC, milling the dry balsam other mills can't. We built a moody, atmospheric site that matches the rugged Bulkley Valley setting, pairing display serif typography with documentary-style imagery to tell the story of every fibre used, nothing wasted.

"Keep your equipment moving."
An e-commerce platform for genuine and aftermarket heavy equipment parts, filters, undercarriage, engine, hydraulics, wear parts. We built a fast, search-first storefront with structured browsing by brand and part type, integrated cart, and account flows so operators can find what they need and get back to work.

Yes, our case studies include several examples of businesses transitioning from legacy on-premise servers to modern cloud environments like Microsoft 365 and Azure. These transformations typically result in improved staff mobility, reduced hardware costs, and enhanced data security. Each story outlines our specific migration process, from the initial assessment and planning phases to final implementation and ongoing support.
Cybersecurity is a core component of every project we undertake. Our case studies detail how we implement multi layered defence strategies, including EDR, security awareness training, and dark web monitoring. We showcase how these measures protect Alberta and BC businesses from ransomware and data breaches, ensuring they meet modern compliance standards while maintaining operational continuity.
