Crown corporations and utilities

360 photo virtual tours for Canadian crown corporations and utilities.

Document a station, substation, or treatment plant, open a visitor-safe facility to the public, and orient cleared crews faster, from one accessible 360 photo tour you own. For security-sensitive critical infrastructure we can deliver it on premise, single tenant, with no cloud. Built to a procurement standard, from $7,000.

What a facility tour earns

One capture, working for operations, the public, and the controlled network.

Crown and utility demand splits between public-facing facilities and security-sensitive infrastructure. A single consistent capture gives operations, communications, security, and training the same navigable, accessible asset, delivered to whichever network policy allows.

Public-facing facilities

Visitor centres, retail and gaming floors, and public lobbies shown online year round, the way crown utilities already run guided and visitor-centre tours.

Corporate and operational sites

Head offices, depots, warehouses, and distribution footprints captured for facilities, leasing, insurance, and stakeholder reference.

Training and orientation

New operators, contractors, and inspectors walk a station or plant before they arrive, learning layout, access routes, and hazard zones from pinned tags.

Regulated and security-sensitive sites

Control rooms, substations, and treatment plants documented inside your controlled network, delivered air-gapped where information-security policy forbids cloud.

As-built and asset records

A current navigable record of a generating station, pumping station, terminal, or plant as it actually stands, for engineering, operations, and capital planning.

Stakeholder and public engagement

Bring the public, students, and stakeholders to a live or secure site online, with accessible pre-visit access and wayfinding for visitor-safe facilities.

Built for critical infrastructure

Where your facility imagery lives is the first question.

The practice is already established here. Hydro-Quebec offers guided and virtual guided tours of its generating stations and dams and publishes immersive 360 content of the Manic-5 and Daniel-Johnson dam; BC Hydro runs visitor centres at the W.A.C. Bennett, Revelstoke, and Stave Falls facilities; and Liberty360 produced 360 tours of the Region of Peel water and wastewater plants. We cite these as proof of the practice, not as our clients.

What the cloud-only platforms cannot answer is the security gate. For a control room, substation, or treatment plant, the operator's information-security policy can forbid facility imagery leaving a controlled network, and Canada's posture is tightening: Bill C-26 mandates cybersecurity programs for designated operators, Alberta has IT-security requirements for critical energy infrastructure, and the Cyber Centre calls for segregating IT and OT networks from the internet. We deliver on premise, single tenant, no cloud, air-gapped, with full data ownership, so the imagery never has to leave your network.

This is a factual capability for the security-sensitive minority, not a headline for every site. Public-facing facilities can use Canadian-hosted residency instead. Either way, the tour and the imagery are yours.

Who we build for

Four roles inside a crown, four reasons to call.

Each starts from a different search, and one of them holds a veto. Each gets the same accessible, ownable asset, delivered to the network policy allows.

Communications and public affairs

"utility public engagement virtual tour" Give the public, students, and stakeholders year-round, accessible access to a facility they cannot visit in person.

Facilities and asset management

"water treatment plant virtual tour" Hold a current navigable record of stations and plants for operations, insurance, and capital planning.

Corporate security and IT

"air-gapped facility tour no cloud" Approve a vendor who delivers on premise, single tenant, with no facility imagery on a third-party cloud.

Training and operations onboarding

"operator onboarding virtual tour" Orient operators, contractors, and inspectors on layout and hazard zones before slow, cleared site access.

Built for crown procurement

How a 360 tour clears crown and utility buying.

Crowns and utilities buy through formal RFPs and supplier portals, often under prequalification, with security clearance and a documented data answer. We arrive registered, insured, and reference-ready, and a single facility is enough to start.

1

Start on one facility

A single station, plant, depot, or visitor centre from $7,000 proves the format before a multi-facility portfolio program.

2

We are on your portals

We respond to RFPs and standing offers on Bonfire and EUNA, bids&tenders, Biddingo, and MERX, and meet prequalification.

3

Insured, covered, clearance-ready

$5M CGL and E&O, WCB in Alberta and Saskatchewan, with provincial registration arranged per engagement, ISN registered, and ready for security clearance and site orientation.

4

Data residency answered up front

Canadian data residency, or fully on-premise air-gapped delivery under your control, documented before the capture is booked.

Honest, starting-at pricing

Facility pricing that self-qualifies.

Transparent floors so a crown or utility knows the fit before the first call. Multi-facility portfolios are scoped per site and phased. Industrial-scale assets, a full generating station or a major treatment complex, are scoped through a premium pilot, not this table.

Questions

Crown and utility questions.

Can a virtual tour be delivered air-gapped, with no cloud, for critical infrastructure?
Yes. For control rooms, substations, and treatment plants we deliver on premise, single tenant, and air-gapped, so facility imagery never leaves your controlled network. This is our lead capability for security-sensitive sites, not an add-on, and it is what the cloud-only platforms structurally cannot offer.
Where does our facility imagery live?
Where your policy requires. Public-facing facilities can use Canadian data residency on a maintained host; security-sensitive infrastructure can be fully on premise under your control. Either path aligns with Bill C-26, provincial critical-infrastructure rules, and IT and OT network segregation guidance.
How do crown corporations and utilities buy virtual tours?
Through formal RFPs and standing offers on supplier portals, often under prequalification. We are on Bonfire and EUNA, bids and tenders, Biddingo, and MERX, are insured with $5M CGL and E and O, carry WCB in Alberta and Saskatchewan, with provincial registration arranged per engagement, are ISN registered, and are ready for security clearance and site orientation.
What is a substation or treatment plant 360 tour used for?
As a current, navigable as-built record for operations, engineering reference, insurance, and capital planning, and as a hazard-tagged orientation that lets new operators, contractors, and inspectors learn layout and access routes before slow, cleared site visits.
Are your virtual tours accessible and WCAG conformant?
Yes. Public-facing crown tours are built to WCAG 2.1 AA with navigable, captioned orientation that supports pre-visit access and wayfinding, aligned with the AODA in Ontario and comparable duties elsewhere. We provide an accessibility statement.
What does a utility facility virtual tour cost, and when does the premium pilot apply?
A single facility starts at $7,000 captured, built, and hosted, then $120 per month per tour. Multi-facility portfolios run $15k to $50k or more, scoped per site and phased. The premium pilot applies only to genuinely industrial-scale assets, a full generating station or a major treatment complex, scoped through sales rather than this table.
