AWS was proudly founded by Mr. Todd Pruden, a citizen of the Métis Nation of Alberta, and a member of the Fort McMurray Métis Local 1935, making AWS an aboriginally-owned business. We pride ourselves on our ability to meet the needs of our many different clients, as well as the different business units throughout larger clients, in a safe and reliable manner. Our ability to hire, retain, and promote local and Indigenous employees is considered to be one of our valued strengths in the marketplace.

We began working in the oil and gas industry and have since expanded into other industries and regions to provide support sand staffing solutions in healthcare, education, and municipal government, among other industries.
