From the ground to the skyline, organizations depend on accurate aerial intelligence to plan smarter and design and operate with confidence. Holland Productions has become the partner they trust. Holland Productions, based in Canada, delivers precise, reliable drone data and aerial imaging, converting each perspective into a competitive edge for professionals who are dependent on accurate visuals. Topographic maps, volumetric measurements and ground models provide the accuracy teams need to plan what comes next, while inspections across roofs, forests and infrastructure reveal the issues that matter before they escalate. And when the job demands a deeper view, LiDAR, photogrammetry and thermal imaging deliver the added insight teams rely on to plan with certainty. Alongside the technical output, the company produces aerial photos and video content for marketing teams and film, media and television productions. While many drone companies focus narrowly on one sector, Holland Productions built its reputation by solving complex challenges across the full landscape of aerial requirements. Construction teams need clear progress documentation, while energy and roofing clients focus on structural health and foresters track environmental conditions. Land planners depend on accurate ground models, and media crews look for polished, intentional imagery. Holland Productions tailors each mission to the enduse case. Flights are engineered to capture multiple datasets in one operation, maximizing value and protecting budgets. Clients don’t have to guess what’s possible. They get a partner who sees the entire problem and aligns the aerial plan to solve it. CONSISTENCY THAT CAN BE COUNTED ON What sets Holland Productions’ services a part from its competition is their ownership of the entire workflow. One internal team manages flight planning, data capture, processing, and final deliverables, giving clients a single accountable partner throughout the project, without compromising data breach. “We collect, process and analyze every dataset ourselves, giving clients consistent quality, tighter data security and deliverables they can trust without the uncertainty that comes Craig Holland, from outsourcing,” says Craig Holland, founder. This in-house model gives the company tight control over quality, performance and data protection. Clients value the assurance that their information stays with one trusted team and that the workflow stays consistent throughout the project. The internal workflow removes the risk of data mismanagement or corruption and ensures clients retain full ownership of their data from start to finish. The approach developed naturally over time as the team saw that outsourcing introduced variables that could compromise accuracy. While many competitors scale through large pilot networks, Holland Productions chooses controlled growth so performance never wavers. It’s a strategic tradeoff that clients appreciate. They get the same standard of accuracy every time, no surprises.

Canadian organizations are under increasing pressure as they navigate rising tariffs, shifting trade policies, and rapid market changes. While technology investments are accelerating, many businesses remain constrained by fragmented planning, siloed data, and decisions anchored in past performance. This complexity demands greater resilience, strategic foresight, and a proactive approach to stay ahead of the curve. In response, progressive organizations are adopting technologies that connect business functions and enhance strategic planning. Digital Twin of an Organization (DTO) rises to the challenge, creating a virtual environment to simulate scenarios, evaluate risks, and drive collaborative change. Originally coined by Gartner®, DTOs help organizations operationalize and better understand their business model. Collaborative Business Planning (CBP) leads in deploying DTO technology, offering a software solution that integrates strategy, operations, and financial performance into a single shared view. By using “decision-timed data” to visualize outcomes and quantify impacts, the software enables organizations to act decisively. “We call DTO ‘testing the future’ because it gives organizations the ability to plan, pivot, and navigate uncertainty with confidence,” says, Mike Haley, VP - DTO Advisory. CBP, built on QualiWare’s Business Management platform, delivers advanced DTO models for actionable operational and financial insights. Unlike traditional digital twins, which focus on real-time monitoring of equipment or production environments, CBP offers a dynamic and comprehensive view of organizational processes and resources. Through this view, business leaders can test-drive decisions across planning horizons and measure their impact before committing resources..
