In order to increase trade, CCC helps foreign government buyers benefit from Canada’s export capabilities through the negotiation and execution of government-to-government contracts. CCC accomplishes this by building unique relationships and maintaining international contracting and procurement expertise.
In reality, this means that the Corporation focuses on sectors where there is a clear role for government: operating in sectors that are sensitive or are outside of the World Trade Organizations’ (WTO) disciplines, such as defence, and where foreign governments require additional capacity to undertake complex and timely procurements, namely in emerging and developing country markets.
Bringing foreign government buyers and Canadian exporters together
CCC offers two contracting options: by selling to foreign governments, taking on the role of prime contractor with a Canadian supplier; and by buying for foreign governments, taking on the role of a procurement agent and sourcing Canadian goods and services.
Foreign government buyers benefit from CCC’s procurement approach, as it provides:
- Expedited access to qualified Canadian suppliers
- Timely, cost-effective, rigorous and transparent process
- Network of unique relationships to build the right solution
- Strong contracting and procurement expertise
Moreover, the Corporation also responds to other federal government departments needs for supply arrangements in order to meet the Government of Canada’s global development assistance commitments.
