Who We Are
Integrated ProAction Corp (“IPAC”) was founded in 1992 in Kamloops, British Columbia. We earned our top-tier reputation over the past 34 years, project by project.
Our services fall into three primary categories: Forestry, Civil Survey/Geomatics, and Log Marketing. Forestry is a broad category that encompasses all aspects of forest tenure planning, management and development, operational permitting, resource road planning and design, right-of-way layout, wildfire resiliency assessments, and much more. Civil survey/geomatics includes professional geomatics, various surveys using drones, LiDar, RTK, lasers, GPS, and other survey tools. Additionally, this category includes heavy construction civil survey and line locates. Log marketing is a niche service tailored to the needs of the client, but broadly speaking, it includes all activities required to bring a stand of timber to market, including harvesting considerations, potentially permitting, log manufacturing and merchandising, trucking, scaling, sales, reclamation, accounting and more.
We are a very seasoned team of registered professionals, technicians, technologists, and support personnel. We emphasize professionalism, communication, efficiency, integrity, and safety in all that we do. We are problem solvers and performers who prioritize results - both short-term and long-linked. We strive for positive outcomes, and emphasize critical thinking to arrive on optimum solutions.
IPAC acknowledges that its principal office is located in Ṯk̓emlúps te Secwépemc territory, situated within the unceded ancestral lands of the Secwépemc Nation. We are grateful to live and work on these lands, and we are committed to reconciliation through meaningful First Nations partnerships, respectful practice, and Indigenous economic participation.
