Current priority

CPA post-season Technology Operations Review

Post-tax season is the window to look at the systems your firm runs on. Every review covers a standard evidence baseline, and CPA firms usually pick one priority focus: workpaper-QA AI governance, CaseWare integration controls, Canadian data residency, or Microsoft 365 permissions and identity.

Trusted by Canadian teams that cannot afford operational drift.

Will and his team's ability to rapidly respond to emergent requirements and deliver stable, dependable support and services has given us the confidence to rely on them for all of our AWS infrastructure support and service needs.

Adam FletcherDirector, Tech Infrastructure and Ops · Concert Properties

I'm glad we chose to partner with [the team now behind Pine IT]. We avoided the pain of writing Terraform and configuring pipelines & integrations by ourselves, which gives us more time to focus on our strength areas and ship products faster.

Philip ZedalisCTO · Array.io

Without the team's help there is no way we'd have been able to hit the level of productivity we have seen. To be able to forget about the infrastructure and just get on with writing code has been transformative for our team.
