June 23, 2020As announced on April 2020, effective October 1, 2020, the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services (MGCS) is moving to a Managed Service Provider (MSP) model for buying temporary information technology (IT) contractor services. MGCS has selected Flextrack Inc. to provide, manage and administer Contingent IT Contractor Services. This will replace the I&IT Task Based Vendor of Record arrangement.

Vendors wishing to supply contingent IT contractor services to the Government of Ontario will be required to register with Flextrack. Any interested IT Qualified Firm will be able to register, provided they are not sole proprietors and meet the MSP requirements such as insurance and tax compliance.
