Where to get help
You'll be given the name and information for the official contact person in the tender. This is the person to contact with any questions you have about that specific tender.
Ask us questions
We can clarify how procurement process works and what is being asked of you. We'll consider each question individually. If all vendors need to be aware of the answer, we:
- will give both the question and answer to all vendors (through an addendum); and
- won't identify who asked the question.
Events
We host a free Reverse Trade Show each November. This is when suppliers can meet government buyers and learn about how our procurement works.
The Annual Industry Conference in February brings experts and presenters to Yukon. This is when industry and government learn new procurement ideas and information.
