Off-the-shelf tools are built for somewhere else. We build custom operations software for businesses across the Northwest Territories — one system for your leads, jobs, costs, scheduling, and time, with accounting and payments wired in. Based in Inuvik, working with every NWT community.
Most Northern businesses don't run on one system — they run on many. The leads live in a phone. The estimates live in a spreadsheet. The job costs live in a shoebox of receipts. The schedule lives on a whiteboard, and the invoices get typed out a second time in accounting software that never talks to any of it. It works, right up until it doesn't — until something gets missed, double-entered, or lost between the trucks and the office.
Generic software promises to fix that, then asks you to bend your business to fit its assumptions — assumptions written for a company in a city that never sees freeze-up, break-up, or a supply run that has to be planned a season ahead. You end up paying a monthly fee to fight a tool that was never built for how you work.
We take the opposite approach. We learn how your business actually runs, then build software shaped to it — and hand it over as yours.
The pieces below are the common ones. Yours is scoped to the work you actually do.
A single pipeline that carries an enquiry all the way to a finished job — nothing re-typed, nothing dropped between stages.
Per-job costs and hours logged as the work happens, so you can see where a job is really making or losing money — not guess after the fact.
A shared schedule the whole crew can see — who's on what, and when — instead of a whiteboard only one person can read.
Documents, photos, tasks, and the people assigned to each job — attached to the job itself, where anyone who needs them can find them.
We connect your system to accounting and payments through official, secure integrations — so an invoice isn't entered twice and money isn't tracked in three places.
When the work happens in the field, we build the mobile and company apps that let your team update jobs, log time, and check the schedule from a phone.
This isn't a pitch for something we hope to do one day.
For a multi-trade general contractor in the Northwest Territories, we built a complete leads-to-jobs operations system — per-job costs, paperwork, people, tasks, and time tracking in one place, with a schedule view and a public-facing website. Built on a modern, secure stack and handed over as A&J's own, not rented from us.

We're in Inuvik, same time zone and same reality as the businesses we build for. You talk to the person building your system, not a ticket queue down south.
We build systems that hold up on the bandwidth people actually have across the territory — quick to load, quick to use, on a phone in the field.
Your software lives on your own domain and accounts, handed over as yours. Modern, secure code, no vendor lock-in, and no rent to keep your own system running.
You always know what's being built and why.
We learn how your business actually runs, end to end, before a line of code — the leads, the jobs, the paperwork, the money.
We build a first version around your real workflow, scoped tight so you get something working and useful quickly — not a two-year project.
We wire in accounting and payments through official integrations, so your system and your books finally agree with each other.
We stay reachable to support and grow it — adding the next piece when the business is ready for it.
A template website elsewhere commonly runs about $999. At that number here, you get a complete operations system with the website.
Every project is quoted to the job. We scope the first build tightly so it's affordable to start and easy to grow.
Not sure you need the whole thing yet? Plenty of businesses start with a website and grow into the software as the operation gets busier. It's the same local partner either way. See everything we offer on our services page, or look at what we've built.
Tell us where the cracks are — where things get missed, double-entered, or lost. We'll show you what we'd build first, in plain language.
