Ottawa says it has suspended the largest contractor that worked on the ArriveCan app from bidding or working on government contracts that have security requ

irements.

The department says the suspension prevents the company from participating in all federal procurements with security requirements.The government has also barred two other companies that contributed to the ArriveCan project, Dalian Enterprises and Coradix Technology Consulting, from participating in procurement opportunities.

The Procurement Department said in the notices about the three companies that it has a framework in place to “prevent, detect and respond to situations of potential wrongdoing and to safeguard the integrity, fairness, openness and transparency of the federal procurement system.”
