Established in 1946, the Canadian Commercial Corporation (CCC) is a federal Crown corporation mandated to promote and facilitate international trade on behalf of Canadian industry, particularly within government markets. The Corporation’s two business lines are structured to support Canadian companies contracting into the defence sector, primarily with the United States, and Canadian exporters contracting into emerging and developing country markets.

In this regard, CCC offers two principal services: prime contractor service, and procurement service. With its prime contractor service CCC acts as a prime contractor, signing a contract with a foreign government and, in turn, entering into a contract with a Canadian supplier. When providing its procurement services CCC helps a foreign government identify appropriate Canadian vendors and awards a contract that will satisfy foreign government requirements. When a foreign buyer enters into a Procurement Service Agreement (PSA) with CCC, the Corporation will act as a Canadian procurement agent under a government-to-government arrangement.

News & Events

Successful completion of contract for Maritime Patrol Dash 8 planes by Field Aviation and Bombardier

CCC is proud to report that the contract for Maritime Patrol Dash 8 planes has been successfully carried out and closed-out. The project has been active since 2004, when Canadian avionics company, Field Aviation began pursuing a Maritime Patrol requirement with Customs and Border Protection in the United States. As the contract was moving to award, Field Aviation knew exactly where to turn in the Canadian government to ensure a strong contract structure which met the Federal Acquisition Regulations in the United States.

Using its in-depth knowledge of complex contracting issues and its experience working with the U.S. Government, CCC worked with Field Aviation, Bombardier Special Missions, and an American prime contractor to structure a contract that was satisfactory to all parties for the supply of seven Maritime Patrol Dash 8 planes. The planes were manufactured by Bombardier, with Field Aviation providing engineering modifications to transform the aircraft for maritime patrol usage. This particular contract benefited from CCC's expertise because the Corporation was able to help the two Canadian suppliers navigate certain complex U.S. DoD requirements. Through its specialised knowledge and contract management resources, CCC was also able to certify that the cost to the U.S. government was fair and reasonable. CCC's involvement kept all parties in agreement throughout contract negotiations, and ensured that a tight and interdependent schedule was met.
