During the next 2 years, approximately 5 billion dollars will be allocated to the British Columbia/Yukon region from the Federal government alone and mostly for capital projects.
Some of you will benefit directly and indirectly from these projects. For example, the bridge work and ancillary projects in the lower mainland will continue: The twinning of the Port Mann is only just beginning. This will be performed by various corporations and individuals and you may have a skill that can enhance these projects. However, you need to know who to contact to tap into those projects. Large corporations will bid for large portions of project and subcontract out various parts within the project. You can find out what projects are available for bidding, who has been the successful bidder, how to get on a “preferred supplier” list and other useful information by contacting us or visiting the www.contractscanada.gc.ca website.
A preferred supplier is provider of services or supplies that stays on a list for a period of time and the government chooses the next supplier on the list for each job that comes up. The list is rebuilt from the time to time so there is new suppliers have the opportunity to get on that list.
Some obvious trades that can benefit from these contracts include; construction and related business; traffic management related businesses; landscaping; equipment rentals and services; and many more.
If your lawyer isn't helping you - ask yourself, why not?
