What Strategic IT Services Includes in Coquitlam

Strategic IT is the layer above the helpdesk. It is what determines whether your technology supports growth or quietly limits it. Each service below is delivered by named people on a documented cadence, not on request, and is sized for the kind of professional-services and mixed-industry businesses that have grown rapidly around Coquitlam Town Centre and the Evergreen SkyTrain extension.

Technology Roadmap and Budget

A written 12 to 36 month plan covering hardware lifecycle, software renewals, security investments, cloud migrations, and Tri-Cities multi-site capacity. Refreshed quarterly and re-baselined annually so finance can budget with confidence across all three cities.

vCIO Advisory

A virtual Chief Information Officer at the leadership table. We attend your strategic planning, translate business goals into technology decisions, and present to boards or investors when needed. Included on Professional and Enterprise plans for Coquitlam clients.

Project Delivery

Coquitlam Town Centre office buildouts, Burquitlam tower fit-outs, Microsoft 365 migrations, ERP rollouts, AV refresh, and Wi-Fi redesigns. Scoped up front, fixed-price, with a named project manager and a weekly status report you can forward.

Tri-Cities Multi-Site Coordination

Many Coquitlam-based businesses also operate from Port Coquitlam or Port Moody addresses. One roadmap, one security baseline, one Microsoft 365 tenancy, and one QBR that reports on the whole Tri-Cities footprint rather than each site as a silo.

Quarterly Business Reviews

Real strategic reports: engagement health score, financial recap, project status, renewal calendar, and an AI-summarised executive paragraph delivered as a PDF every quarter. See the QBR page for a worked example.

Operational Baseline Included

Strategic IT does not work without solid operations underneath it. Helpdesk, 24/7 monitoring, EDR, managed backup, and on-site support are all included on the same flat-rate plan, not a separate contract.

Industries We Plan With in Coquitlam

Coquitlam's industry mix has shifted significantly since the Evergreen SkyTrain extension opened in 2016. Town Centre is now a professional-services hub, Maillardville carries the city's manufacturing heritage, and the Riverview Lands redevelopment will reshape the south corridor over the next decade. Strategic IT planning is tuned to which side of that shift your business sits on.

Professional Services

Accounting, legal, architecture, design, and consulting firms in the Town Centre towers near Lafarge Lake and Coquitlam Centre. Matter management, document-management refresh, and client-portal modernisation on the roadmap.

Light Manufacturing and Industrial

Maillardville and Coquitlam West light manufacturers with ERP and MRP roadmaps, OT segmentation planning, and capital budgeting for shop-floor refresh.

Retail and Mall Tenants

Point-of-sale lifecycle, payment-platform changes, and multi-site rollouts for tenants at Coquitlam Centre and along the North Road retail strip.

Healthcare and Clinics

EMR roadmaps, multi-site clinic standardisation, and BC PIPA-aware planning for practices near Eagle Ridge Hospital and the Austin Heights medical corridor.

Construction and Trades

Tri-Cities construction firms riding the Burquitlam, Lougheed, and Riverview Lands development cycles need IT roadmaps that account for project-management software, field-device fleets, and rapid headcount changes.

Education-Adjacent Organisations

Training providers, tutoring services, and non-profits operating around Douglas College David Lam Campus and Coquitlam College with grant-funded technology cycles.

Compliance-Ready IT Baseline for Coquitlam Businesses

Every Coquitlam business we onboard receives a documented security baseline aligned to the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security baseline controls and the requirements your cyber insurance carrier is asking about on renewal questionnaires. This is the same baseline we apply to our own infrastructure, not a stripped-down small-business version.

  • Identity and access. Microsoft Entra ID with Conditional Access policies, multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforcement on every account, and compliant-device sign-in checks.
  • Endpoint protection. Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) on every Windows, Mac, and mobile device, deployed and active before the user receives the laptop.
  • Disk encryption. BitLocker on Windows and FileVault on Mac, key-escrowed centrally so a lost device does not become a data breach.
  • Email hardening. SPF, DKIM, and DMARC alignment plus anti-phishing and impersonation-protection rules tuned to your industry.
  • Backup and recovery. Managed backups with documented retention and quarterly restore tests so you know recovery actually works before an incident.
  • BC PIPA and PIPEDA aware. Audit logging, role-based access, and breach-notification process documentation kept up to date with the current Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada guidance.

Hardware Procurement and Lifecycle Planning in Coquitlam

Hexafusion operates as a Dell authorized reseller and full-service IT supplier for Coquitlam businesses, with access to authorized Canadian distribution channels for Lenovo, Apple, Microsoft Surface, and networking gear from Cisco Meraki, Fortinet, SonicWall, Ubiquiti, Aruba, and Juniper. Procurement is part of the roadmap, not a one-off sales transaction. Every laptop, server, and switch is on a documented lifecycle so the next refresh is budgeted before it is urgent.

At end-of-life we handle decommissioning with the same discipline as deployment. Drive sanitisation follows NIST Special Publication 800-88 guidelines, every retired device generates a serial-numbered certificate of destruction for your PIPEDA breach-notification record-keeping, and devices beyond economic refurbishment are recycled through programs accredited by the Electronic Products Recycling Association (EPRA Canada).

Who you actually work with in Coquitlam

Hexafusion is led by founder Alex Barari, a former PCI DSS Internal Security Assessor with 15+ years in enterprise IT and cybersecurity. Strategic engagements with Coquitlam clients are led personally, not delegated to a junior account manager. The same team that builds your roadmap reviews the alerts at 2 a.m. and shows up on-site when a Town Centre or Burquitlam project crosses the line from remote to hands-on.

Our quarterly business review (QBR) is a real strategic report, not a generic newsletter: engagement health score, financial recap, onboarding progress, renewal calendar, and an AI-summarised executive paragraph delivered as a PDF to every client at the end of every calendar quarter. See the QBR page for a worked example.

Why Coquitlam businesses choose Hexafusion for IT services

  • Strategy with operations. A roadmap is worthless if the helpdesk is broken. Both come on one flat-rate plan.
  • Tri-Cities footprint covered. One scope spans Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, and Port Moody sites for clients who operate across all three cities.
  • Named vCIO. Leadership knows who is accountable for the technology agenda, not just who is on call.
  • Budget-friendly cadence. Quarterly roadmap refresh and annual re-baseline lines up with how Coquitlam finance teams actually plan.
  • Project discipline. Fixed-price scopes, weekly status, and post-mortems on every project. No mystery invoices.
  • Vendor consolidation. We hold the contracts with ISP, telco, software, and hardware so leadership stops being a switchboard.
