Government of Canada launches hub for organizations looking to buy or supply personal protective equipment

On May 14th, 2020, the Government of Canada announced the creation of a COVID-19 Supply Council.. Among the list of members that sit on the council is Pivot Airlines’ CEO, Eric Edmondson.

The council brings together a diverse group of leaders that provide the government with advice on the procurement of critical goods and services required as part of Canada’s COVID-19 response and recovery.

Today, the Government of Canada launched a new web hub to bring together available resources for organizations buying and selling personal protective equipment (PPE). As organizations re-open for business, they need reliable information on how to buy and sell the necessary supplies required to keep themselves and others safe.

The Supply Hub connects Canadian organizations from coast to coast to coast with federal, provincial, territorial and other resources and information about PPE, including consumer guidance. Buyers will find PPE supplier lists, in addition to guidance to help plan their PPE purchases. As Public Services and Procurement Canada continues to engage with our partners and advisory groups, the hub will evolve to include additional resources.
