Description

This study explores the competitiveness factors and growing industry trends related to procurement decisions made when oil sands buyers award contracts to Metal Fabrication and Machinery Manufacturing (MFMM) suppliers during the development, construction and operation of mining, in-situ and upgrader projects. The study helps to provide market intelligence for the development and execution of growth strategies in areas where Alberta’s MFMM sector has a competitive advantage. It also provides a better understanding of the needs of Alberta’s oil sands industry, describes how to strengthen relationships between Alberta’s MFMM sector and oil sand project owners, and support continued economic growth in the province.
