Some people would rather have the thread in their own sent folder, and in a public body that is usually the point — it is a record you can forward. The address goes to a person, not a queue.

What to put in it

  • Which system, and roughly how old it is.
  • What breaks, or what everyone works around.
  • Whether anyone still has the source code or the original vendor.
  • Your organization and your role, so the reply is pitched right.

None of it is required. It is only what lets the first reply be specific instead of a request for more information.

Three required fields: your name, your email, and what is going on. Everything else is optional and only there because it helps us give you a straighter answer.

No mystery

What happens after you send it.

  1. It goes to a person

    No routing, no ticket number, no auto-responder pretending to be a person.

  2. A written reply inside one business day

    From someone who has read what you wrote. If a custom build is the wrong answer for you, that is what the reply will say.

  3. A call only if you ask for one

    Nothing gets added to a drip sequence, and nothing here asks you to hold a slot in your week before you know whether we are worth the time. If a call helps, we arrange one in the reply.

Where we already sit on the government side

Three public procurement records, each with a reference number you can check without asking us for anything.

  • OAG-RFQ-26-068

    Runs to 2030-07-07

    Pre-qualified supplier to the Office of the Auditor General of British Columbia

    Digital Services. Qualified in three categories: Public Cloud Services, Application and System Design, and AI Readiness and Adoption.

  • ON-003317-03

    Pre-qualified, Province of British Columbia Multi-Use List, Service Area 3

    Software Development and Testing. The provincial standing list ministries draw from when they scope a build.

  • BC Digital Marketplace

    Registered supplier

    Listed on the province’s marketplace for digital opportunities, so BC public bodies can find and invite us directly.

Delivery in progress

We hold an active contract with a Canadian provincial government ministry, client name withheld under contract confidentiality.

To be exact about what the first three are: a pre-qualification is permission to be invited, not a contract award and not a guarantee of work. It means the province has already reviewed us against its criteria and cleared us to bid. What it gives a ministry is permission to invite us to a limited competition, not a shortcut past one.

Run your own numbers first.

A $12,000 a year subscription costs $120,000 over ten years flat, or about $151,000 once you allow for a 5% annual increase. A $30,000 build costs $30,000 over the same ten years, and at the end of it you own the thing. The calculator does this with your figures instead of ours.
