Fiixer Friday: Meet Christopher Martin Choy, Implementation Consultant & World traveler 🗺️

We are picking back up our Fiixer Friday series, this week, we're shining the spotlight on Christopher Martin Choy, Implementation Consultant and avid traveler. ✈️❓ What is something about you that might surprise people?✨ I love to forage for wild edibles in the summers here in Ontario! Better than getting them at my local grocery store. 🫐❓ What has been the highlight of your time at Fiix?✨ Walking into the office and meeting some of my teammates was a huge win. We were able to connect in-person after a long stretch of only Zoom meetings. The abundance of awesome snacks and the coffee machine didn’t hurt either. 🏢❓ What do you love about your role/the work that you do?✨ Managing all phases of the project lifecycle is a challenge that keeps the role fun and exciting. The different industries and client personalities that we interface with can make things difficult at times, but that’s all part of the game. 🔧❓ What motivates you?✨ Truth and knowledge!❓ Aside from necessities, what one

Changing roles at Fiix

Hi Fiixers, I just wanted to take a moment to let you all know that at the beginning of March, I will be taking on a new role at Fiix with the Solutions Engineering team! This means I’ll be spending most of my time developing and sharing best practices with prospective Fiix users on how they can get the most out of Fiix. It also means that you’ll start to see less activity from me in The Fiixers in the coming weeks. But, no worries as @Justine Rae and @Emma Muldoon along with the rest of the team will continue to support an awesome community experience 🙌.I’m very proud of this space we’ve built together and it has been an incredible journey watching our community grow and thrive 🥳 💙.I’ll continue to be a regular visitor 🤗 so I can keep learning from all your questions and clever problem solving!

Fiixer Friday: Meet Joe McVay, Implementation Consultant

This week, we’re shining the spotlight on Joe McVay, Implementation Consultant here at Fiix 🛠 He is an early bird that loves coffee, and has a sweet spot for smoked brisket, dogs, fall and football!❓What was your "I need to work at Fiix" moment? ✨During the interview process it was overwhelmingly clear that Fiix was very employee and community focused. If a company is willing to invest that much in their employees then I knew I'd have all the motivation needed to go the extra mile for our customers 👏. ❓What do you love most about your role/ the work that you do?✨There are times during a training where you have some pushback initially from a technician and then you'll see them start to realize how much easier we could make their job with our software. I have seen complete 180s on starting to use a CMMS in the span of a two hour training and that is pretty gratifying 🛠.❓What motivates or drives you?✨My family 💕.❓Tell us something fun that you do in your spare time or any hobbies

Fiix's carbon footprint

Fiix is relentlessly committed to sustainability and part of that involves looking after our carbon footprint. For the past 5 years, we have measured and offset our scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, which is a fancy way of saying ALL OF IT.Typically, scope 3 accounts for majority of emissions, which is the case at Fiix (see air travel and data servers). So when you see climate goals and commitments from organizations, it’s important to ask about scope 3 — THAT is where the impact lies. Below is a chart highlighting the composition of our carbon footprint in 2019 and 2020 — and how our emissions have decreased for the first time in five years!! COVID’s restriction on travel had a positive impact on our footprint, which we are hoping to maintain moving forward. Needless to say, when you work with Fiix, you are working with a carbon neutral organization!

This week, we're shining the spotlight on Isabel, Account Executive, who grew up in the US but has now acquired the Canadian “I’m sorry”.❓ What made you decide to work at Fiix? What has been the highlight or your most proud moment since starting at Fiix? ✨ I decided to work at Fiix because it aligned with my values personally and professionally. I love how much opportunity there is in the market for Fiix and the value this brings to our customers. The company being a B-corp was also amazing for me.❓ What motivates or drives you?✨  I am driven by the new world for women in the workplace. It wasn't too long ago when women were defined by their role at home or for the family. It limited the career options and pay we could get. We have a new generation of people now coming into the workplace and I believe the actions of everyone help create a world where gender/race doesn't matter. No one can do it alone so I gear my actions and career to help create that equality.❓ Tell us something fun t
