Strategic IT is the layer above the helpdesk. For Maple Ridge it is also the layer that decides whether a 60-minute drive from Vancouver is a problem or a planned and budgeted activity. Each service below is delivered by named people on a documented cadence, not on request.
A written 12 to 36 month plan covering hardware lifecycle, software renewals, security investments, connectivity upgrades for rural east Maple Ridge sites, and headcount-driven capacity. Refreshed quarterly so finance can budget with confidence.
A virtual Chief Information Officer at the leadership table. We attend your strategic planning, translate growth plans into technology decisions, and present to lenders or investors when needed. Included on Professional and Enterprise plans.
Mobile device management rollouts for tradesperson tablets and phones, dispatch and field-service software deployments, vehicle-mount and ruggedised hardware procurement, and Wi-Fi for shop yards and equipment compounds. Scoped up front, fixed-price, with weekly status.
We hold the relationships with your ISP (Telus, Shaw, fixed wireless in rural east Maple Ridge), telecom, line-of-business software vendors, and hardware distribution. One throat to choke when things break, and one team negotiating renewals on your behalf.
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.
Strategic IT does not work without solid operations underneath it. Helpdesk, 24/7 monitoring, EDR, managed backup, and scheduled on-site support are all included on the same flat-rate plan, not a separate contract.
Maple Ridge is heavily trades-driven and increasingly varied. Strategic IT planning looks very different for an Albion industrial manufacturer than it does for a Haney Place Mall retailer, and that is reflected in the roadmap we build for you.
Framing, electrical, mechanical, paving, excavation, and equipment rental firms across Maple Ridge need mobile device management, ruggedised tablets, field-service software, and a ticketing path that works for a foreman with muddy hands.
Maple Ridge Industrial Park and the Albion industrial area host manufacturers and distributors with ERP roadmaps, OT segmentation needs, and shop-floor refresh cycles that need capital planning.
Clinics in the Ridge Meadows Hospital corridor need EMR roadmaps, multi-site standardisation, and BC PIPA-aware planning for personal health information.
Productions shooting in Memorial Peace Park, historic Hammond, or rural Whonnock need short-term project IT: location Wi-Fi, set-network security, and a tear-down plan that protects footage.
Tenants at Haney Place Mall and along Dewdney Trunk Road need POS lifecycle planning, payment-platform changes, and multi-site rollouts done outside trading hours.
Accounting, legal, and insurance firms in Town Centre, plus agricultural and agri-business operators in rural east Maple Ridge with connectivity and field-data planning needs.
Every Maple Ridge 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.
Hexafusion operates as a Dell authorized reseller and full-service IT supplier for Maple Ridge businesses, with access to authorized Canadian distribution channels for Lenovo, Apple, Microsoft Surface, ruggedised tablets (Panasonic Toughbook, Samsung Tab Active), 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 device, vehicle-mount kit, 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).
Hexafusion is led by founder Alex Barari, a former PCI DSS Internal Security Assessor with 15+ years in enterprise IT and cybersecurity. Strategic engagements are led personally, not delegated to a junior account manager reading a deck written somewhere else. Because Maple Ridge is at the far reach of our standard service area, the engagement is built around named people, scheduled cadence, and an explicit understanding of when remote is enough and when an on-site day is needed.
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.

Roadmap refresh and QBR cadence apply to Professional and Enterprise plans. Project scoping windows are targets and depend on response speed from your team and any third-party vendors involved. On-site visits for Maple Ridge are scheduled in advance to consolidate the 50 to 70 minute drive from downtown Vancouver. Fixed-price project scopes are built on documented assumptions; out-of-scope work is quoted separately before it is executed.
