National Defence’s competitive contracts of $25,000 or more since Apr 2022 drew a median of 1 bid; 89% drew a single bid (1,349 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 National Defence’s 636 contracts for heating, plumbing and air systems since Apr 2022, 4% were non-competitive and 12% 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
19% of the 429 award notices for the same topic went to suppliers with under $1 million in federal contracts since Jan 2004.
