Who We Are

Over 25 Years of Indigenous Leadership in Contracting and Facility Services

Bouchier began with a simple idea, a used dozer, and the drive to make a difference. Over the past 25 years, that entrepreneurial spirit has grown into one of Alberta’s most respected 100% Indigenous-owned and operated companies.

Locally Owned. Nationally Respected. Community Driven.

Headquartered in Fort McKay, at the heart of Alberta’s Athabasca oil sands region, Bouchier is a privately owned, authentically local company specializing in civil contracting and facility services.

As one of Alberta’s largest Indigenous-owned companies, Bouchier has built a reputation for delivering industrial services that support resource development, infrastructure, and long-term economic growth. Our work spans a variety of sectors, including oil sands operations, civil construction, site services, maintenance, and workforce solutions.

For more than 25 years, we have combined operational expertise with a commitment to building meaningful partnerships that create value for clients, communities, and Indigenous stakeholders throughout Northern Alberta.

Workforce & Regional Impact

Bouchier’s success is built on the strength of our people and the communities we serve. Our workforce supports industrial projects across Northern Alberta while contributing to local employment, skills development, and long-term economic participation.

Through ongoing investment in training, safety, mentorship, and community initiatives, we continue to help strengthen the region’s workforce while supporting responsible growth and sustainable development for future generations.
