Industrial & Technological Benefits (ITB) Consulting Services
Bridge The Gap Between ITB Policy and Economic Development Goals
Also known as Industrial Participation or Offsets Management, Canada’s Industrial & Technological Benefits Policy is a cornerstone of the Canadian federal government’s procurement strategy, designed to ensure that major defence and security contracts deliver long-term economic benefits to Canada.
Under the ITB policy, companies awarded contracts are required to make investments in Canadian businesses that equal the value of the contract. These investments often focus on innovation, advanced technologies, and skill development, fostering growth in key sectors such as aerospace, defence, and clean technologies. By promoting collaboration between global contractors and Canadian firms, the policy helps strengthen the domestic industrial base, create jobs, and support economic growth across the country.
