Our work
Case studies
The problem, how we approached it, and what changed afterwards.
Cloning a Live Azure Environment into a New Tenant in Under a Week
Citation needed an exact copy of its Azure environment in a brand-new tenant, which Microsoft has no tool for. We rebuilt the foundation as ARM templates, moved every server by disk snapshot, and had the application running in under a week.
Multi-WAN Internet, Resort-Wide Wi-Fi and Cameras for a Remote RV Resort
A remote resort stuck on high-latency satellite internet. We bonded Starlink with Verizon and T-Mobile LTE through Peplink SpeedFusion, carried the network across six zones by wireless and fiber, and added a guest Wi-Fi portal, cameras and fully managed IT.
Surveillance, Wi-Fi and a Gate Alarm for a Licensed Cannabis Farm
A large licensed farm off Highway 36 needed cameras on every sensitive area, Wi-Fi across the property and warning when a vehicle reaches the gate. We built it with buried conduit, solar-powered camera poles on point-to-point links, an isolated camera network and a driveway alarm that rings a bell.
Security Cameras for a Perfume Boutique, and Again When It Moved
A boutique full of product needed protection from break-ins and theft. We designed and installed UniFi Protect cameras covering the entrances, the showroom floor and the office, recording on site to a Cloud Key, then planned and installed structured cabling at Tulip's new build-out in 2025 and moved the system onto it.
A Tree-Mounted Radio and a Move to the Cloud for a Watershed Nonprofit
Unreliable internet, files scattered across laptops and an aging NAS exposed over insecure FTP. We mounted a point-to-point radio in a tree to reach a local wireless ISP, moved the organization to Google Workspace for Nonprofits, retired the NAS, and replaced costly phone service with Google Voice.
