BC Search and Rescue
Task Reporting
We enabled search teams to log data about their task directly from the field, where they may not have access to a network.
BC Search and Rescue is rolling out a new data management system across the province. However the system only has online capabilities. When in the field, teams may not have access to a network but they still need to log data about their task. We’re building the functionality to enable teams to log data offline, and then upload it to the server once they’re back on a network.

ReBOOT Canada

ReBOOT refurbishes and distributes used computer equipment to non-profit organizations. We built a secure, online platform to help track donations.
ReBOOT refurbishes old computer equipment and distributes it to other non-profits and charities. Founded in 1995 and based in Toronto, ReBOOT has recycled over 200,000 pieces of equipment. We built them a secure, online platform through which they can track all of their received donations. It provides a simple interface through which donors can register and the admins can track the details of donations. The system also provides tax receipts for donors.

Big Brothers
Data Aggregation
We helped Big Brothers optimize their placement of clothing donation bins across the Lower Mainland by aggregating and visualizing information from different sources.
Sixty percent of the funding for Big Brothers Vancouver comes from clothing donations. They sell the donations to Value Village to make a profit and need to place their donation bins strategically across the lower mainland. The goal of this project was to help Big Brothers with their problem by building a web application that will pull donation bin locations from many different sources and put them all on one nice map so they can see where they should place theirs.
