Supply Chain Performance Program (SCPP)
Empowering Canadian suppliers with non-debt, private-sector early payment liquidity to fulfill critical national mandates without straining working capital.
Target Priority Supply Chain Sectors
The strategy emphasizes strengthening Canadian industries, expanding Buy Canadian procurement, and building more reliable domestic supply chains in defence, manufacturing, energy, transportation, critical minerals, and food production.
But increased government investment and Canadian procurement alone will not guarantee stronger supply chains. Suppliers must have the working capital necessary to fulfil their orders.
The Supply Chain Performance Program (SCPP) enables Canadian businesses to strengthen their supply chains by offering suppliers optional early payment of approved invoices.
Engineered to fortify supply chain resilience without adding taxpayer debt or bureaucratic friction.
Suppliers receive payment earlier, improving working capital without conventional borrowing.
Buyers maintain their existing payment terms and pay on their normal due dates.
Supply chains benefit from improved supplier financial stability, stronger relationships, and greater reliability.
Government funding is not required to finance the early payments.
The program is voluntary, allowing suppliers to access early payment when needed.
As Canada invests in domestic manufacturing and major infrastructure projects, supplier financial capacity will become increasingly important.
This Supply Chain Performance Program offers a practical private-sector complement to the Government's strategy—helping Canadian suppliers meet growing demand while supporting the competitiveness of Canadian businesses.
“A stronger Canada begins with stronger Canadian suppliers.”
