Campfire Technology Acquires Precursor Systems,Winnipeg's Apple Specialist Since 1994
WINNIPEG, MB, November 5, 2026 – Campfire Technology Inc. ("Campfire") has announced that it has acquired Precursor.ca, Inc., operating as Precursor Systems, a Winnipeg Apple consultancy and managed service provider founded and led by Alex Narvey.
Campfire is an independent, owner-operated IT service provider that has worked in Apple IT in Winnipeg since 2007 and serves more than 100 small and medium-sized businesses and non-profits across Canada.
Precursor has supported Winnipeg small businesses continuously since 1994 and is a long-
standing member of the Apple Technical Partner Program. Precursor’s services include Mac and iOS support, managed backup, email, security, wireless and mobile device management. The acquisition gives Precursor's clients continuity of service and access to Campfire's broader team, which already manages Mac fleets alongside Windows, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace environments for organizations across Canada.
Alex will work alongside Campfire through the end of 2026, introducing clients to their new IT team and transferring the knowledge behind each client environment. Precursor will continue to operate under the Precursor Systems name, and clients do not need to take any action. Each client will hear directly from Campfire about next steps.
"Alex has spent three decades building trusted relationships with Winnipeg's Apple-based businesses, and our first priority is making sure that trust carries forward," said A.J. Potrebka, Partner and Director of Operations at Campfire. "Precursor's clients will keep the Apple expertise and continuity they rely on, now with a full team behind them for day-to-day support, security and long-term strategic technology planning."
“It seems like only yesterday it was 1994 and I was starting Precursor Systems. And now, I am retiring. Amazing.”, said Alex Narvey, founder of Precursor Systems. “I leave in the knowledge that I am handing my clients to the best Apple-focused I.T. company in Canada. I got to know the owners of Campfire at numerous Mac conferences and Apple training events over the years, and I know each of them to be outstanding individuals with superb technical and people skills. Precursor Systems clients will be able to rely on their expertise going forward.”
