- Who won the last one
The last award notice from National Defence for the same commodity code went to Contro Valve Inc. in Sep 2026. That contract runs to Dec 2027.
- What work like this goes for
Half of the 48 award notices for the same commodity code were between $36,044 and $712,000; the middle one was $111,407. Values as awarded, in Canadian dollars, and often including option years.
- How many bids to expect
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
6% of the 125 award notices for the same commodity class went to suppliers with under $1 million in federal contracts since Jan 2004.
