Why Archos

Discovery & Consultation

We begin by understanding your goals, constraints, and schedule. This is where clarity starts. We identify risks early and align expectations with every project partner so the team moves forward with a shared foundation.

Planning & Design

We create clear, buildable electrical designs that eliminate uncertainty. Every plan is reviewed for constructability and coordinated early with other disciplines so issues are solved before they reach the site.

Implementation & Execution

We stay connected to the project as conditions evolve. Our team responds quickly to updates, provides timely clarifications, and ensures the electrical design remains aligned with real site conditions and decisions.

Continuous Communication

We maintain open communication throughout the project. You can expect timely responses, proactive updates, and consistent coordination so nothing slips through the cracks and everyone knows what comes next.

Quality Assurance & Review

Every drawing is reviewed with discipline and experienced oversight. We verify accuracy, compliance, and constructability to reduce RFIs, minimize revisions, and protect the construction schedule.

Project Delivery & Support

Our involvement continues through construction and into turnover. We support the team, resolve issues quickly, and ensure the electrical systems perform as intended so the project finishes with confidence.

Modern electrical engineering built on clarity, leadership, and integrity.

Archos, delivers practical, accountable electrical engineering that helps contractors, designers, and owners build with confidence. We take responsibility early, resolve coordination issues before they become costly, and ground every decision in constructability, code requirements, and real site conditions.

Archos is an EGBC-licensed engineering firm that successfully completed its Regulatory Compliance Audit and was placed on a five-year audit cycle. This independent review confirms that our internal systems, quality controls, and professional standards meet the highest regulatory requirements.

These systems ensure consistency, accountability, and disciplined project delivery across every engagement.

Setting a higher standard for electrical engineering.

Every detail reviewed.
Every challenge anticipated.

Services

Our Services

From early planning to post-occupancy, we provide electrical engineering services that keep projects coordinated, buildable, and on schedule. Every service is delivered with the same focus on clarity, proactive coordination, and reliable performance.

Electrical System Design

We design clear, coordinated electrical systems that support safe, efficient operation and smooth construction.

Our design scope includes:
- Power distribution and panel schedules
- Interior and exterior lighting design
- Lighting controls and automation
- Emergency power and life safety systems
- Telecommunications and structured cabling
- Security, access control, and CCTV
- Audio-visual systems
- EV charging infrastructure

Every system is reviewed for constructability, maintainability, and future flexibility so contractors can build with confidence and owners get long term value.

Energy & Compliance

We navigate energy and code requirements so your project stays compliant without unnecessary redesign or delay.

Our compliance services include:
- Energy code compliance and ASHRAE modelling
- Energy Step Code documentation
- NECB and municipal requirements
- EV readiness and infrastructure planning
- Regulatory submissions and approvals

Our documentation is clear, complete, and delivered on time so approval processes move forward smoothly.

Project Coordination & Administration

We keep the electrical scope aligned with the rest of the project from design through closeout.

Our coordination services include:

- Utility and municipal coordination
- Project scheduling and milestone tracking
- Collaboration with designers, consultants, and contractors
- Contract administration
- Shop drawing reviews
- Construction support and site visits
- Commissioning and turnover documentation

With clear communication and disciplined management, we reduce RFIs, control changes, and help keep construction moving.

Life Safety & Communication Systems

We engineer life safety and communication systems that protect people and keep buildings connected in both everyday use and emergencies.

Our specialties include:
- Fire alarm and detection systems
- Emergency voice communication
- Security and electronic access
- Data and telecommunications
- Public address and audio-visual systems

These systems are designed and coordinated to meet code, support operations, and strengthen overall building resilience.

Feasibility & Technical Studies

We support early decision making with focused studies that clarify options, risks, and costs before design proceeds.

Our studies include:
- Electrical load calculations and capacity reviews
- Systems analysis and upgrade requirements
- Site assessments and due diligence
- EV and sustainability feasibility

Our assessments are concise, practical, and structured so stakeholders can make informed decisions with confidence.

Post-Project Support

Our involvement continues after occupancy to keep systems reliable and performing as intended.

We support owners and operators with:
- Warranty and performance review
- Ongoing service and maintenance support
- Future system upgrades
- As-built documentation and updates

We focus on practical, coordinated solutions that extend system life and minimize disruption to operations.

Clarity-Led Engineering

We approach engineering with structure, accountability, and collaboration. Our role is to turn complexity into practical solutions that keep projects coordinated and moving forward. From the first conversation to the final review, we bring clarity to decisions and alignment to every project partner.

Our work supports commercial towers, residential communities, post-secondary institutions, hospitality spaces, and public environments across British Columbia. Whether we are resolving a challenging power layout or managing EV readiness on tight timelines, our team brings discipline, technical depth, and clear communication to every project.

Engineering for Impact
