Federal Supply Arrangements

TBIPS, SBIPS & TSPS AI Consulting in Canada

TBIPS, SBIPS, and TSPS are the three federal supply arrangements that move informatics, business, and task-based professional services into the Government of Canada. CFRI partners with primes on these arrangements to deliver senior AI implementation roles — not generic IT staffing.

01

Roles we deliver

Senior AI/ML Architect, Data Scientist (Levels 2 and 3), AI Solution Lead, Responsible AI / AIA Specialist, and Quantum Cryptography Migration Lead. Each role comes with shipped systems on the resume.

02

How we partner with primes

We slot into prime vendor teams as named subcontractors with the resumes that win evaluation, and we lead the AI technical scope. The prime owns the contract; we own the AI delivery quality.

03

Standing-offer support

We help SMEs assemble the qualification package for the AI Source List and adjacent standing offers, then deliver against the resulting work.

What we deliver
  • Named subcontractor resumes calibrated to evaluation grids
  • Past-performance narratives mapped to AI/ML criteria
  • Statement-of-work co-authoring with prime vendors
  • Senior AI delivery on federal contracts
Frequently asked

Are you a TBIPS prime?

We work as a senior AI subcontractor under existing TBIPS / SBIPS / TSPS primes, and we help SMEs become primes on smaller arrangements.

What labour categories do you cover?

Senior AI Architect, Data Scientist L2/L3, AI Solution Lead, Responsible AI Specialist, PQC Migration Lead, plus standard analyst/PM categories where the engagement requires it.

Can you support a bid this week?

Yes — name us as a named subcontractor and we will turn around resumes and past-performance narratives within the bid window.

Do you only work federal?

Federal is the focus, but we also deliver into Crown corporations and provincial AI work via TBIPS-equivalent vehicles.

How is this different from a body shop?

Every CFRI delivery role comes from operators with shipped AI systems. We are not staffing — we are senior AI delivery.
