Rules and procedure
Buyers follow the federal or provincial procurement rules that apply to them. Uniform tenders usually set fabric specifications — composition, weight and colour — and require samples; some ask for independent laboratory test reports.
How to bid
- Register for NTN, active taxpayer status and sales tax.
- Read the fabric specification and sizes carefully.
- Prepare and submit samples exactly as specified, labelled as the notice asks.
- Arrange bid security and submit before the deadline.
- Plan production and size-wise delivery to the buyer's schedule.
Documents you will usually need
- NTN and sales tax registration
- Samples of fabric and finished items
- Laboratory test reports, where required
- Manufacturing or stitching capacity details
- Business registration documents
Tips from the notices we track
- Samples are evaluated first — a weak sample ends the bid.
- Size breakdowns change cost; price from the size list, not an average.
- Large orders are delivered in lots; agree the delivery plan early.
