The Government of Canada wants to help smaller and diverse businesses sell to the government.

Procurement Assistance Canada, as part of Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC), is here to make it easier for smaller and diverse businesses to bid on federal contracting opportunities.

We do that by:

• Finding out what stops them from submitting a bid
• Advising government buyers and policy-makers on the concerns of smaller and diverse businesses
• Suggesting ways to make tools and processes better so that it's easier for smaller and diverse businesses to compete for contracts
