Federal Government Procurement Workshop
This workshop is to educate companies on the Federal Government Procurement Process as well as to hear from OEM’s who have ITB Obligation as to who they are, what is the scope of their companies’ services and what type of suppliers are they looking for in Canada. We also try to bring in a small company who is currently in an aerospace or defence supply chain to share they journey with the companies sin the audience. We limit the presentation to the morning session and then have B2B meeting in the afternoon. As I indicated yesterday, we have also reach out to the indigenous community to invite them to learn as well.
