We understand how government and institutional procurement works. Below is the information procurement officers and communications directors need to evaluate Greycrest Visuals as a qualified vendor.
Greycrest Visuals Inc. is a duly incorporated Canadian corporation operating in British Columbia and Saskatchewan, with a national service footprint. We meet standard business eligibility requirements for federal and provincial procurement.
Greycrest Visuals is a Minority-Owned Business Enterprise (MBE). This designation qualifies the company for supplier diversity programs and procurement set-asides at federal, provincial, and municipal government levels.
Greycrest Visuals is registered on CanadaBuys, the Government of Canada's official supplier portal. We actively monitor relevant RFPs through CanadaBuys and MERX for video production, visual communications, and multimedia services.
We carry commercial general liability insurance and professional liability (errors and omissions) coverage. Certificates of insurance are available upon request as part of any RFP or contract package.
Greycrest Visuals is available as a sub-contractor for communications agencies and public relations firms holding government standing offers.
A formal Capabilities Statement, including service overview, past performance, key differentiators, and contact information, is available upon request for procurement and vendor qualification purposes.
Beyond procurement eligibility, government and institutional clients require vendors to meet strict on-site safety, insurance, and data compliance standards. Greycrest Visuals is structured to meet these requirements from day one.
Greycrest Visuals Inc. is registered with WorkSafeBC under Motion Picture and Video Production (Industry Code 763025). Our WorkSafeBC account number is 201909230. Clearance Letters confirming active, good-standing status can be generated directly at worksafebc.com using our account number, or provided upon request for any project or purchase order.
All crew members brought on-site hold their own active WCB clearance. Documentation for every crew member is maintained and available for government auditors.
All video deliverables can be produced to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and AODA standards, a requirement for most government-published video content.
Standard accessibility deliverables include: professionally prepared closed captions (SRT format), descriptive audio tracks upon request, and accessible file formats for web and intranet publishing.
For health authority, federal, and privacy-sensitive institutional clients, footage delivery through Canadian-hosted platforms is available upon request, ensuring raw footage, project files, and final deliverables remain on Canadian soil.
This supports compliance with PIPEDA and applicable provincial privacy legislation for projects involving government employees, patients, or students.
Greycrest Visuals is structured to accept engagements at the Direct Award (Low-Dollar) threshold: under $40,000 federally and under $25,000 provincially, without requiring a public competitive tender. This means a communications manager or HR director can issue a Purchase Order directly, keeping the procurement process fast and frictionless.
