Free IT Assessment for BC, AB & Yukon | North Star
HomeFree Assessment

Book a free IT assessment. Walk away with something useful.

A senior engineer reviews your environment and tells you the top three risks, the top three quick wins, and what good would look like. No quote-or-die pressure. No obligation.

This is not a discovery call disguised as a consultation. It is a genuine technical review of your environment, delivered by a senior engineer, with written findings you keep regardless of what you decide next.

We built this process because we were tired of the alternative: vendors who spend four meetings gathering information before producing a quote that only makes sense if you sign. We skip that entirely. One call, one findings document, one decision.

The assessment is structured around the questions that matter most for a small or mid-sized business in BC, Alberta, or Yukon:

Security posture, Are your endpoints protected? Is MFA enforced? How are credentials managed? What would happen if one of your staff clicked a phishing link today?

Backup and recovery, Do you have verified backups? How long would a restore take after a ransomware event? Is your backup stored somewhere separate from your primary environment?

Microsoft 365 configuration, Is your tenant set up to the security baseline? Are your licences correctly assigned? Are you paying for features you are not using?

Network and connectivity, Are your firewall and switching equipment current? Is your remote access secured? Do you have visibility into what is on your network?

Compliance exposure, If you hold personal information about clients or employees, are you meeting your obligations under PIPEDA and BC PIPA?

Step 1, Tell us about your environment. Use the booking form below. Give us your user count, device types, primary software, and whatever has been causing the most pain. The more context you provide, the more useful the call.

Step 2, 30-minute video call. A senior engineer joins you on a call. We share screen, look at your Microsoft 365 admin centre (or equivalent), and work through the environment together. This is a technical conversation, not a pitch.

Step 3, Written findings document. Within two business days you receive a short PDF. It covers: the top three risks we found, the top three quick wins, and what a managed IT relationship with North Star would look like if it made sense for your business.

Step 4, Your decision. If we are a fit, we quote you a tier from our published pricing. If we are not, you keep the findings and use them however you like. No follow-up calls you did not ask for. No email campaign.

Many of our assessment clients already have an IT provider, or an internal person handling IT on top of another job. The assessment is useful in either case:

This assessment is designed for organisations between 5 and 200 users, operating in BC, Alberta, or Yukon, across any industry. It is particularly useful if you are in construction, forestry, professional services, healthcare, or a regulated field where compliance matters.
