How to use this list
Today, decide whether you're in on Peel and Pickering; it's too late to start either from scratch. Send Caledon questions by Tuesday and Oakville questions by Thursday. Then put the two prequalifications, OCDSB 27-027 and Hamilton C14-04-26, on the calendar: a missed PQ locks you out of work you could have won. bids&tenders preview pages are free, but secured documents usually need a registered account.
