Meets or exceeds
Built south, finished complete,
shipped north.
A northern build is a logistics problem before it is a construction problem. We plan production and the delivery chain as one schedule, so the building and its transport window arrive together.
Built to your barge date
Production is scheduled backward from the sealift booking so units reach the port ready to load. Most builds are manufactured and delivered in roughly 16 weeks.
One delivery chain
Road, rail, barge and air planned together, right through to the community, rather than a handoff at the dock.
Ice-road timing
For fly-in communities, we build through the off-season in controlled facilities and time delivery to the winter ice-road window.
Complete on arrival
Finished inside, so local crews set and connect instead of building from scratch. Installation is measured in days.

Partnership, climate
and the build itself.
Delivery is one part of a northern project. How we work with Indigenous Nations, how the buildings handle the climate, and what remote communities should weigh each have their own page.
Common questions.
How do the buildings actually get to Nunavut?
By road and rail to the port, then north by sealift barge during the open-water season, with air freight where the schedule demands it. Herauf plans the whole chain as one move rather than handing you off at the dock.
When do we need to commit for this year's sealift?
Most builds are manufactured and delivered in roughly 16 weeks, so the order date works backward from your barge booking. Talk to us early in the planning year and we will map production to the window.
Are the buildings engineered for the Arctic?
Yes. Every unit meets or exceeds CSA A277 and the National Building Code for climate zones 6 through 8, with a continuously insulated, airtight envelope built for sustained cold.
Have you delivered to remote northern communities before?
Regularly. Homes to St. Theresa Point First Nation roughly 700 km over winter ice roads, housing at Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation, a 56-room dormitory campus for NAIT at roadless Kidney Lake, and industrial storage in Yellowknife, among other northern projects.
Can community and territorial funding be applied?
Yes, and Herauf works alongside band, municipal and territorial funding programs, including the $15,000 infrastructure grant where a project is eligible.
