The Company
Established in 2001, Bison Fire Protection Inc. began as a fire extinguisher, and automatic suppression provider to grow into a full service company including fire alarm, and automatic sprinklers. Bison Fire Protection Inc. is quickly becoming the recognized leader in fire alarm and emergency light products – with full service shops in Winnipeg, Thompson, and Regina.
The Requirement
This fast-growing company was relying on manual systems to run their inventory and service delivery. In 2012, Bison Fire made the decision to implement a full ERP system, working with Manitoba’s Quantas Software. As part of this software implementation, Bison engaged 365 to deploy a completely new network infrastructure. The project included deploying several virtual servers; implementation of Microsoft Exchange and migration of Bison’s existing POP3 Email accounts; configuration of a Disaster Recovery solution using Dell’s Appassure; and connecting remote sites over SonicWall VPN tunnels.
