National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy

The Shipyard General Workers Federation recently held their 22nd Biennial Convention which gave the delegates an update to the Federal procurement strategy as outlined by the Federal Government. We are coming close to the end of the process and we cannot stress enough the importance of the role the province must play in the process. We do hope that the report does give some insight to the process and if further information is required please feel free to contact us.
