Data through November 2026. Source: Publicus analysis of CanadaBuys and federal proactive disclosure records (CPD build ur-20261108T082027Z).

Method: Federal contracts signed from 2021-04-01 to 2026-03-31, grouped by supplier (spellings of one company's name are joined, and so are names the supplier registry ties to one organisation; separate subsidiaries stay separate). Each contract's value counts once, at its latest amended value in Canadian dollars; ceilings, undisclosed and unverified amounts are not counted. Suppliers Publicus does not name (individuals, placeholders and a short list of companies) are left out of the ranking but stay in every total.

2,131 suppliers are not named on Publicus pages (mostly individuals and records with no supplier name); their contracts are counted in the totals. Entries such as United States military departments are government-to-government purchases. A dash means no counted contract value in FY2025-26.

What a supplier ranking can and cannot tell you

The largest suppliers are mostly firms that build and maintain major assets or run national service contracts, so a handful of multi-year agreements carries much of the value. Below them sits a long list of mid-sized firms whose federal work is spread over many smaller contracts, which is where most companies new to federal contracting will compete.

Sellers can use the table to see which departments the leaders work with and where a teaming or subcontracting conversation might start. Public servants can use it to see which firms already deliver at scale for peer departments, and how broad the supplier base is beyond the top of the list.

Each supplier name links to its Publicus page where one exists. See also federal departments ranked by contract value and every supplier with a page.
