Invitations to tender and design-build RFPs from municipal, academic, school-board and hospital (MASH) buyers, transit agencies and crown corporations — across federal, provincial and municipal portals. Summarized, scored and deadline-tracked.
Construction is among the highest-volume tender categories in Canada, spread across hundreds of public buyers.

Construction tenders hinge on bonding capacity, prequalification, mandatory site meetings and a compliant submission. Missing one mandatory item can disqualify an otherwise strong bid — confirm the essentials, then verify against the official tender documents.
Across many portals — CanadaBuys (federal), provincial portals like BC Bid and the Ontario Tenders Portal, and municipal/MASH platforms like Bids&Tenders, Biddingo and Bonfire. CanaGrants monitors them together and tags construction opportunities so you don’t check each one manually.
MASH stands for Municipalities, Academic institutions, School boards and Hospitals — the broader public sector that buys a large share of construction work. These buyers use platforms like Bids&Tenders and Biddingo, all covered in your CanaGrants feed.
Most public construction tenders require a bid bond and performance/labour-and-material bonds. We surface bonding requirements in the summary so you can assess fit early; confirm the exact amounts in the official tender documents.
From June 15, 2026 the Buy Canadian threshold drops to $5M, extending Canadian-supplier and Canadian Value-Added preferences to many more construction contracts. We flag where these criteria apply.
