• Which sectors does io4 work with?

  Six sectors: industrial SMBs and mining, manufacturing and agri-food, professional services, municipal and para-public, education (school service centres, CEGEPs and colleges), healthcare and non-profits. Each sector has its own page with its challenges, our services and our references.

• Why a sector approach if the Microsoft platform is the same?

  Microsoft 365, Azure and Microsoft security are common to all, but the constraints differ: remote sites and 24/7 operations in industry, professional secrecy in firms, public tenders and Canadian hosting for municipalities, student data under Québec's Law 25 in education, non-profit budgets and mission continuity in healthcare. We adapt governance, security and project pace to these constraints.

• What public-sector references do you have?

  More than 25 school service centres, 10+ CEGEPs and colleges and 10+ municipal clients, including Ville de Québec, Ville de Lévis and Ville de Gatineau. We know public tendering (SEAO) well.

• Do you work outside Québec?

  Yes. io4 has two offices, in Montréal (headquarters) and Lyon, and delivers mandates across Canada, France, the rest of Europe and the United States. Running a Microsoft environment is managed remotely.
