We’ve even been recognized by Chambers of Commerce, like in Guelph (winner of the 2023 Customer Service Award), Timmins (winner of the 2024 Best Place to Work Award), and Sudbury (finalist for the 2024 Best Place to Work Award). Extracurricular social events are provided so we can all have some fun along the way (biennial “Prom”, golf tournaments, sports teams, department lunches, summer BBQs, and much more).

Interested in our modelling assignments that supports our land development projects? Check out how JLR developed innovative modelling by developing a water budget analysis carried out using PCSWMM where a long-term simulation of hourly precipitation and temperature was used to assess the hydrological cycle. The analysis identified the design capture of a Low Impact Development (LID) measure to preserve groundwater recharge to the esker. Also see the PCSWMM analysis that was carried out along the sanitary system in a large community in the Kanata West area. This sanitary sewer analysis was required given that a sanitary overflow was incorporated into one of the wet ponds to confirm that basement protection during a catastrophic failure of the downstream Pumping Station could be provided.
