Disclosure of Contracts Over $10,000

Overview    Reports

On March 23, 2004, the Government announced a new policy on the mandatory publication of contracts over $10,000.

This Web site provides information on contracts issued by or on behalf of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada. Every three months we will be reporting contracts awarded by the institution in the previous three months.

Since October 31, 2004, this website has been updated every three months to include information on new contracts awarded.

On June 19, 2008, the policy was changed to also require the disclosure of contract amendments valued over $10,000.

Effective October 31, 2012, amendments to the Guidelines on the Proactive Disclosure of Contracts   require that contracts over $10,000 issued to former public servants in receipt of a pension under the Public Service Superannuation Act after January 1, 2013 be identified as such.

The rules and principles governing government contracting are outlined in the Treasury Board Contracting Policy  . The objective of government procurement contracting is to acquire goods and services, including construction services, in a manner that enhances access, competition and fairness and results in best value to Canada.

Explanatory notes to users (for the purposes of this website only):

1. The delivery date for receipt of goods is normally defaulted on the AANDC purchase order to within 14 days after the creation date of the call-up or purchase order.
   
   
2. Goods and Services Tax (GST)/Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), if applicable, is normally not reflected in the reported value for:
   
   
   • call-ups against PWGSC standing offers for temporary help services,
   • goods purchase orders, or
   • call-ups against AANDC standing offers.
   • The reported contract award value may reflect the value of amendments to call-ups or purchase orders. However, AANDC services contract records reflect the contract award value only, including GST/HST.
     
     
3. Publication of contracting activity is subject to the requirements of legislation including the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act. Accordingly, some contract information may not be posted.
   
   
4. Due to system programming delays, procurement information is being reported using Goods and Services Identification Numbers (GSINs), as opposed to economic objects. This data will be updated as soon as possible to reflect the economic objects.
