Executive summary
Current state
Defence Construction Canada offers security clearance sponsorship for contractors bidding on DND projects but cannot guarantee approval or eliminate costs, creating an institutional fracture where qualified contractors remain excluded despite billions in procurement budget.
Market catalyst
DCC uses four different procurement mechanisms (OCSL, Source Lists, Standing Offers, Open Competitive) with varying requirements, creating confusion that forces contractors to waste hours researching which mechanism applies to their situation.
