How they buy

Across the energy & power notices we currently hold for Canada, the most common form is the open tender or invitation to bid, followed by request for proposal, request for quotation and expression of interest. Each has its own rules — see RFP, RFQ and EOI compared and tendering procedures explained.

What qualifies you

Energy and power tenders include solar and wind projects, transmission and distribution works, substations, metering and energy-efficiency programmes. Many are capital-intensive and reward demonstrated technical capacity and financial strength. Review grid-connection standards, commissioning milestones and any long-term operations or power-purchase terms attached to the contract.

Before committing effort, it is worth running a deliberate bid/no-bid decision and checking your submission against the responsiveness checklist.
