Toronto, Ontario (PRWEB) March 16, 2006 –-

The Ontario Chamber of Commerce (OCC) [www. OCC. on. ca], a federation of approximately 160 community Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce located throughout Ontario, Canada, has partnered with BidNavigator. com [www. BidNavigator. com], the leading online marketplace for government purchasing.

The OCC recognizes the value of BidNavigator. com as a business development tool for small and medium-sized organizations, and is actively promoting the service to its 57,000 affiliated members across Ontario. As part of the partnership agreement, BidNavigator. com will provide access to governmental bid opportunities for OCC-affiliated members.

“We believe BidNavigator. com can help our members with their business development. The government sector is an often overlooked market that is open to everyone,” says Len Crispino, President of the OCC. “There’s literally billions of dollars of business up for grabs, and BidNavigator. com is the best way for our members to get involved.”

The partnership is a natural pairing for the OCC and BidNavigator. com, who share similar philosophies and goals.
