- What work like this goes for
Half of the 16 award notices for the same commodity code were between $364,847 and $9,995,697; the middle one was $2,002,957. Values as awarded, in Canadian dollars, and often including option years.
- How many bids to expect
Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission’s competitive contracts of $25,000 or more since Apr 2022 drew a median of 2 bids; 39% drew a single bid (88 contracts).
Bid counts as the department reported them to the Treasury Board. Departments count differently, so compare within one buyer, not across buyers.
- How this buyer buys
Of Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission’s 631 contracts since Apr 2022, 61% were non-competitive and 0% were call-ups against standing offers or supply arrangements, which only firms already on those lists can win. How to get on them
- Room for smaller firms
12% of the 43 award notices for the same commodity class went to suppliers with under $1 million in federal contracts since Jan 2004.
Sources: CanadaBuys award notices since Aug 2022 (October 12, 2026); Treasury Board contracts data, bid counts from Apr 2022 on (October 13, 2026). Buyers are matched by name; Crown corporations such as Defence Construction Canada are not in the Treasury Board data.
