If you are familiar with Buyandsell.gc.ca, you may note that we have made some changes to the menu and For Businesses landing page.

Why are we making improvements to the For Businesses section?

These changes are intended to improve the ease of use and accessibility of For Businesses. The current enhancements aim to directly address feedback from website users and results of usability testing. We focused primarily on improvements that could make it easier for suppliers to find answers to common procurement questions and access to key resources, such as Supplier Registration Information (SRI) system and other supplier accounts.

What changed in the For Businesses section of Buyandsell.gc.ca?

  • Simplified the For Businesses top menu to show only key sections.
  • Added a new “Manage your supplier accounts” page, where suppliers can access SRI and other supplier accounts.
  • The For Businesses landing page has a new layout, as well as improved section titles and links that make it easier to find the most requested information on the Buyandsell.gc.ca website.
