Executive summary
Current state
Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) intends sole-source negotiations for specialized databases while inviting alternative suppliers to demonstrate equivalent capabilities, revealing a structural gap where institutional procurement constraints prevent direct action despite identified needs.
Market catalyst
Procurement officers at Crown corporations lack standardized templates for sole-source justifications that will survive Treasury Board scrutiny; each officer reinvents the wheel, creating compliance risk and delays for urgent requirements like BDC's database needs.
