WeBC is partnering once again with Procurement Assistance Canada (PAC) to help you explore the possibility of selling to a major client—the Government of Canada! Whether you’re a sole proprietorship, partnership, or corporation, there are opportunities to sell your product or service to the government. As the largest purchaser in Canada, the government buys a wide range of goods and services, many of which come from small and medium-sized businesses like yours. The latest federal budget makes it clear that Canada wants to open more doors for businesses of all kinds, including women-owned companies, to work with the government through procurement. There’s never been a better time to get involved! Understanding how federal procurement works, from identifying opportunities to navigating the bid process, will improve your strategies and save time.
