**NEW INFORMATION TO BIDDERS**

The Province of Ontario enacted the Buy Ontario Act “BOA” (Public Sector Procurement), 2025, and the associated Buy Ontario Procurement Directive, effective April 13, 2026, to strengthen Ontario’s economy by prioritizing Ontario and Canadian goods, services, businesses, and supply chains in public sector procurement. The Directive applies to Ontario government entities and designated Broader Public Sector (BPS) organizations, including school boards, and requires greater consideration of Ontario and Canadian sourcing in procurement activities.

**INSTRUCTIONS**

As a result of the Directive, bidders responding to this procurement are required to submit the following mandatory Buy Ontario documents with their bid submission:

  1. Buy Ontario Questionnaire (BOA) – Provides information regarding the bidder's business location, Ontario and Canadian content, supply chain participants, and the origin of goods and services proposed for the project.
  2. Domestic Supply Chain Plan – Identifies the sources of major goods and services, key suppliers and subcontractors, and outlines how Ontario and Canadian goods and services will be maximized throughout the project.

Failure to submit these documents with the bid will result in the bid being deemed non-compliant and will not be evaluated any further.
