Turning procurement commitments into real participation.
Ataway maps work packages, matches Indigenous suppliers, supports bid readiness, and coordinates procurement opportunities so that contractors get results they can be pleased with.
The operating system for Indigenous procurement.
The Government of Canada requires that at least 5% of federal contract value be held by Indigenous businesses. Across energy, mining, and infrastructure, Indigenous procurement commitments are growing. The challenge does not lie within the intention, it lies within actual execution. Contractors need a practical system to identify qualified Indigenous suppliers, coordinate work packages, and report outcomes.
Ataway is designed to be that system. We identify and profile Indigenous suppliers, match them to specific project needs, coordinate bid readiness, and document every outcome. The goal is to move beyond promises and convert procurement commitments into contracts, jobs, and measurable benefit.
Supplier Intake & Categorization
Developing structured supplier profiles, readiness reviews, and controlled supplier categories so contractors can find qualified Indigenous businesses efficiently.
Work Package Mapping & Matching
Identifying specific procurement opportunities and matching Indigenous suppliers to project scopes that fit their services, geography, and readiness.
Bid Readiness Coordination
Supporting suppliers in preparing competitive, compliant bids and helping contractors describe a credible Indigenous procurement approach.
Compliance Documentation
Tracking all participation commitments and outcomes so project owners have clear, reportable evidence of Indigenous procurement activity.
Contractor Access & Project Support
Helping contractors understand Indigenous procurement options, build practical participation plans, and satisfy IBA and CCIP commitments.
Real Indigenous procurement is not a checkbox. It requires infrastructure, relationships, and accountability, which is exactly what we build.
Not a passive middleman
Ataway organizes suppliers, coordinates procurement, and reports outcomes, adding real operating value. We do not simply stand between two parties and take a fee.
Respectful of existing relationships
We only support non-conflicting gaps, using a no-interference approach. We work to help Nations and contractors create and maintain Indigenous partnerships, only stepping in when we are asked to.
End-to-end accountability
Every engagement includes tracking and reporting so that outcomes are clearly visible to Nations, contractors, and project owners. Real work, real reporting, and real benefit.
