AI Readiness Assessment
Every AI engagement starts with a structured assessment of your environment, data, workflows, and team readiness. Fusion identifies the specific use cases where AI delivers measurable ROI for your business — not a generic pitch deck. Assessments run $2,500 to $5,000 depending on environment size.
Microsoft Copilot Deployment and Governance
Fusion deploys Copilot across your M365 environment with proper governance: sensitivity labels, data loss prevention policies, access scoping, and tenant-level controls. Your business data stays inside your tenant and never trains public AI models. From $30/user/month for ongoing governance and management.
Power Automate Workflow Builds
Repetitive manual tasks drain your team's time and introduce errors. Fusion builds Power Automate workflows that connect your existing systems — M365, SharePoint, accounting, CRM — and automate the handoffs. Custom workflow builds start at $500 per workflow.
AI Data Strategy and Governance
AI is only as good as the data it accesses. Fusion structures your data environment so AI tools return accurate, relevant results without exposing sensitive information. Sensitivity labels, DLP policies, and access controls are configured before any AI tool goes live.
Logistics firms in the Bridgeport and Aberdeen corridors use AI for demand forecasting, automated shipment classification, and supply chain anomaly detection. Fusion deploys Power Automate workflows that connect ERP, WMS, and accounting systems without exposing sensitive trade data.
AI Services Pricing in Richmond
Richmond businesses benefit from an AI readiness assessment that evaluates data quality, workflow maturity, and infrastructure readiness. Logistics firms near YVR and technology companies along No. 3 Road often have the data foundations for AI but lack a deployment roadmap. The assessment creates a prioritized plan that targets the highest-ROI automation opportunities first.

Why Richmond Businesses Choose Fusion for AI
Richmond's logistics and import/export businesses process thousands of shipment records, customs declarations, and invoices daily. Power Automate workflows can cut manual data entry by 60-80%, and Copilot can draft correspondence in multiple languages. Fusion builds these automations with proper data handling — so AI tools never expose supplier credentials or customs data to public models.
Fusion's approach to AI is practical, not aspirational. We deploy tools that work today — Microsoft Copilot, Power Automate, Power BI — with governance guardrails that keep your data controlled. Every engagement starts with an assessment that identifies specific, measurable ROI targets. If AI won't save you money or time on a given workflow, we'll tell you that.

Mike Pearlstein, CISSP — CEO, Fusion Computing
Fusion has served Canadian businesses since 2012. Our approach to AI is the same as our approach to everything else: practical, governed, and measurable. We deploy Copilot and Power Automate with the same security rigour we apply to managed IT — because AI without governance is just a faster way to create risk. CISSP-certified leadership ensures your AI deployment is secure from day one.

How Fusion Works in Richmond
Every engagement follows the same structured process, whether you're a 10-person office or a 200-employee operation. No guessing, no scope creep, no surprises.
Assessment
We start with an AI readiness assessment that evaluates your data infrastructure, identifies automation opportunities, and maps which workflows will benefit most from AI tools like Microsoft Copilot and Power Automate. This is free and takes 2–5 business days.
Onboarding
If we're a fit, we execute a phased deployment that starts with a pilot team, configures Copilot licences, builds Power Automate workflows, and validates results before expanding to the full organization.
Ongoing Support
From there it's ongoing optimization with monthly usage reviews, new workflow development, Copilot adoption coaching, and integration of new AI capabilities as Microsoft releases them.
This process works because it's been refined across 500+ Canadian businesses since 2012. We know what breaks, what gets missed, and what actually moves the needle for Richmond businesses.
AI Services for Richmond's Key Industries
Richmond is home to logistics, agriculture, hospitality, and technology firms near Vancouver International Airport. Each industry brings specific technology requirements and compliance obligations that generic IT providers often miss.
Fusion has direct experience supporting businesses in Richmond, Steveston, Bridgeport across these sectors. We understand the difference between a manufacturing firm that needs 24/7 uptime for production systems and a professional services firm that needs secure document management and client data protection. That context matters because it determines what we monitor, how we prioritize tickets, and which security controls we enforce.
Our team includes a CISSP-certified security lead who reviews every Richmond client's environment quarterly, ensuring your technology posture keeps pace with both business growth and evolving threats.
Why This Matters for Richmond Businesses
Microsoft's 2024 Work Trend Index found that 75% of knowledge workers already use AI tools at work, but only 39% have received any training from their employer.
The gap between AI adoption and AI readiness creates risk — shadow AI usage, data leakage, and inconsistent outputs. A structured deployment with proper licensing, governance, and training closes this gap.
Fusion's AI services clients in Metro Vancouver see measurable productivity gains within 60 days: faster document drafting, automated data extraction, and meeting summaries that save 5+ hours per user per week.
