In the world of engineering consulting, bigger isn’t always better. At InfraCor, we pride ourselves on being the “Home Hardware” of the land development industry — a firm that’s focused on relationships, community, and hands-on service, rather than scale for scale’s sake. If you’re a developer looking for real value and partnership, the difference matters.

Home Depot is a massive operation — rows of endless product, a dizzying array of options, and a sense that you’re just one of thousands walking the aisles. It’s efficient, yes, but not necessarily personal. That’s the model many large engineering consulting firms have come to resemble. They’re built around volume. Their internal structures are tiered and rigid, communication is formalized, and project hand-offs between departments can slow things down. For private sector land developers, this often means dealing with junior staff, waiting weeks for decisions, and struggling to get the customized attention your project needs.

InfraCor is different. Like a well-run Home Hardware store, we know our clients by name. We offer direct access to experienced professionals who are invested in your success — not just the success of the firm. Our approach is local, agile, and responsive. When you work with InfraCor, you’re not routed through layers of bureaucracy. You deal directly with senior engineers and decision-makers who understand the pressures developers face and who can help you navigate municipal approvals, tight schedules, and shifting budgets with clarity and urgency.

This hands-on, service-first approach doesn’t mean sacrificing capability. Like Home Hardware, which is independently owned but part of a strong national network, InfraCor brings robust engineering expertise across Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. We’ve structured ourselves to be lean, but deep — combining technical excellence with personal accountability. For developers, that translates into faster timelines, clearer communication, and better value.

In a market crowded with big-box firms, InfraCor’s “neighbourhood hardware store” approach is our strength. We’re not trying to be everything to everyone — we’re focused on delivering exceptional results for private sector land developers who value partnership, trust, and straightforward expertise.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to talk.
