Quarterly Usage Reports for Canadian Federal Government Contracts

Canadian federal government records of services provided by suppliers under Standing Offers and Supply Arrangements. Public Services and Procurement Canada collects these reports on a quarterly basis, with the data last updated on March 21, 2026. The dataset includes nil reports submitted when no contracts were issued during a reporting period.

Use Cases

• Analyze government spending patterns based on quarterly service provision records.
• Track supplier activity and contract utilization under Standing Offers and Supply Arrangements.
• Identify periods of high or low procurement activity based on nil report submissions.

Strengths

• Data is provided in multiple machine-readable formats (JSON, XML, CSV, HTML).
• Reports are submitted on a regular quarterly schedule, suggesting a structured update cadence.
• Explicit documentation for nil reports clarifies the meaning of blank fields.

Limitations

• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
