'''THE WHAT:''' This Wiki page is a starting point to explore and understand GOC's obligations for when there's a requirement located a Modern Treaty (also known as Comprehensive Land Claim Agreements [CLCAs]) area and/or if you are considering Indigenous opportunities in your procurement, in general (not located in a Modern Treaty area). Requirements that are subject to Modern Treaties often require a unique set of procedures and must be reviewed by our Modern Treaty Support Team. The resources found in this section will help you through these procedures and direct you to the applicable resources.

+

'''THE WHAT:'''

−

'''THE WHY:''' Considering Indigenous opportunities in procurement is strongly encouraged and can be found in our Minister's mandate letter. There is no requirement too big or too small. We must take every opportunity to realize social benefits in federal contracting. We must develop and sustain a positive working relationship with the claimant groups, northern partners, be proactive and develop trust, encourage open communication, be flexible but realistic and realize that each agreement is unique.

'''MODERN TREATIES AND THE NUNAVUT LAND CLAIMS AGREEMENT'''

===Modern Treaties===

Modern Treaties (also known as Comprehensive Land Claim Agreements [CLCAs]) area - minus the Nunavut Settlement Area (NSA) (please see Nunavut Information and Procedures tab). Most requirements that take place in a Modern Treaty (CLCA) area must include Indigenous Benefit Plan (IBP) (as known as Indigenous Opportunities Considerations [IOC]). There are no requirements that are too big or too small. We must take every opportunity to realize socio-economic benefits in federal contracting. Please explore this page as it will help you to understand your obligations and will point you to the appropriate resources to support you in your implementation.
