Should you bid?
What the public record says about work like this. The notice on CanadaBuys is what counts: read it before deciding.
- Who won the last one
The last award notice from Global Affairs Canada for the same commodity class went to a supplier this site does not name in Mar 2025, for $2,500,000. That contract runs to Mar 2027.
It ends within six months of this one starting, so this tender may be its replacement, and that supplier the incumbent. Incumbents know the work and the buyer; check the notice for whether the scope changed.
- What work like this goes for
Half of the 5 award notices for the same commodity code were between $61,950 and $175,912; the middle one was $63,710. Values as awarded, in Canadian dollars, and often including option years.
- How many bids to expect
Global Affairs Canada’s competitive contracts of $25,000 or more since Apr 2022 drew a median of 2 bids; 37% drew a single bid (3,963 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 Global Affairs Canada’s 15,311 contracts since Apr 2022, 54% 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
17% of the 131 award notices for the same commodity family 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.
