hampions of healthy compe-
tition in the construction in-
dustry, the “Bureau des sou-
missions déposées du Québec”, or BSDQ,
protects contractors by overseeing a fair
and equal tendering process in Quebec.
“The BSDQ was created with the goal of
ensuring the establishment and preser-
vation of harmonious relations among
construction contractors when a call for
tenders is issued. Its main objective is to
ensure healthy competition and protect
contractors against unfair practices,” says
Guy Lacroix, General Director of BSDQ.
A private, non-profit organization, the
BSDQ receives bids from specialized con-
tractors and forwards them to general
contractors when a construction project
is launched. Its mission is to receive and
to distribute tenders from trade contrac-
tors working in Quebec, allowing the gen-
eral and trade contractors and ultimately
the owners, to benefit from a healthy
competition.
