Custom Software Development in Saskatchewan
AltaMatic (formerly AltaPro AI) is headquartered in Edmonton and expanding into Saskatchewan, where a welding and machining shop system we built is in testing now. For the fabricators, mining-service firms, ag businesses and manufacturers of Saskatoon, Regina and beyond, we build the software the shop and the office share.
Who Builds Shop and Field Software for Saskatchewan Businesses?
AltaMatic builds custom software for Saskatchewan operators whose work runs through a shop, a yard or a field: request and quote records, work orders, job costing, equipment and maintenance logs, and the links to the accounting or ERP system they keep.
The province already has one of our builds: a shop system for a Saskatchewan welding and machining shop, in testing, that keeps one record from the first request to the final job cost. We are based in Edmonton and come on site for discovery and go-live.

Potash, Grain and the Shops Behind Them.
Saskatchewan's economy leans on what comes out of the ground and off the fields. The Saskatoon region describes itself as a global leader in potash mining and counts agriculture and manufacturing among its sectors; Regina's key sectors include agriculture and food, energy and advanced manufacturing, shipping through the Global Transportation Hub and Chuka Creek.
Behind those industries sits a long list of welding, machining and fabrication shops, equipment dealers and service contractors. Their margins depend on knowing what a job was quoted at and what it actually cost — which is exactly what the Saskatchewan shop system we are testing tracks.
Quoted Versus Actual, Live
In the Saskatchewan welding and machining build, the shop lead works from a tablet and the job's quoted-versus-actual cost updates as the work happens.
Mining-Service Paperwork
Contractors serving mine sites carry safety documents, prequalification packages and signed tickets. One system assembles them instead of a shared drive.
Ag Work on Custom Rates
Custom-rate work priced by customer, acre or hour, recorded against the field it happened on and invoiced from the same record.
The Saskatchewan Cities We Are Expanding Into.
AltaMatic is headquartered in Edmonton and expanding into Saskatchewan's cities. Each is served on the same terms: on site for discovery and go-live, video, phone and screen-share between visits.

Software forSaskatchewan Shops and Crews.
Four places a Saskatchewan build usually starts. The first is the one already in testing in the province.
01
Shop Management
Requests, quotes, work orders, the shop-floor view and job costing in one record, so every job shows its margin while it is still on the floor.
02
Field & Equipment Records
Field tickets, equipment hours and maintenance logged on a phone, signed on site and ready for billing.
03
Quoting & Estimating
Estimates from your own rates and material costs, reusing what the last similar job actually took.
04
Accounting & ERP Integration
The accounting or ERP system you keep, connected so jobs, costs and invoices move between them without retyping.
A Saskatchewan Shop System, in Testing.
The welding and machining build is anonymous and in testing. Alongside it, two live Edmonton builds show the kind of operations system it grows into.

Custom Software in Saskatchewan, Answered.
What Saskatchewan owners ask before a first call.
Do You Work in Saskatchewan Already?
Yes. A shop system for a Saskatchewan welding and machining shop is in testing now. AltaMatic is headquartered in Edmonton and expanding into the province's cities from there.
Which Saskatchewan Cities Do You Serve?
Saskatoon, Regina and Prince Albert to start, and businesses elsewhere in the province on the same terms: on site for discovery and go-live, video, phone and screen-share between visits.
Can You Handle Job Costing for a Fabrication Shop?
That is what the Saskatchewan build does: one record from request to final cost, with quoted versus actual updating as the work happens. It is in testing, so results will be published once it is live.
Will It Connect to Our Accounting System?
In most builds, yes. We connect to the accounting or ERP package you already use so invoices and costs are not entered twice.
