About Us

F12 is one of Canada’s largest IT consulting firms

We Love IT and Helping Clients Succeed

F12 was built by uniting IT consulting firms from across Canada around a common vision – to combat risk and complexity by continuously crafting business technology platforms that empower business leaders to focus and thrive.

We believe that IT should be done differently. Too often technology breeds risk, distraction, and disruption. F12 exists to solve this problem. We aim to elevate IT conversations (from ingredients to outcomes) and deliver fully designed solutions where there are no bad options.

Our IT Consulting Firm's History

Entrepreneur Alex Webb started F12 over thirty years ago. Along the way, he convinced other entrepreneurs to join their consultancy firms to his. Together we’ve forged a distinct Canadian technology provider determined to forever transform how technology is consumed.
