Bill 72 in Action
Recently, the Government of Ontario introduced new procurement requirements under the Buy Ontario Act (Public Sector Procurement), 2025, including the Buy Ontario Procurement Directive and the Municipal Buy Ontario Procurement Directive. OECM has confirmed that all current agreements remain compliant and can continue to be used without disruption, with specific requirements applying only in specific cases such as fleet vehicles and capital infrastructure.
As part of OECM’s ongoing work to support customers under these directives, four Ontario-based manufacturers with products available through OECM’s Custodial and Janitorial Supplies, Equipment, and Related Services agreement invited OECM to visit their facilities and learn more about their operations.
