05 FAQ

BC tenders — asked + answered.

What is BC Bid and is it free?
01

BC Bid is British Columbia’s official procurement portal, free to register and bid on. It carries provincial ministries and broader-public-sector buyers; crown corporations like BC Hydro, BC Transit and ICBC also post opportunities. CanaGrants pulls them into one feed with summaries and scoring — you submit on BC Bid.

Do BC tenders require French?
02

Generally no — BC operates in English and most tenders do not require bilingual deliverables. Always confirm the language requirements in the official notice.

Can small businesses win BC Hydro or TransLink work?
03

Yes — many crown and transit opportunities are sized for SMEs or include subcontracting roles. We score each against your capabilities so you focus on the ones you can realistically deliver. Award decisions rest with the buyer.

Are local suppliers favoured?
04

Some municipal tenders include local-supplier or community-benefit evaluation criteria. We surface these in the summary; confirm the exact weighting in the official document.
