DESCRIPTION

The project requires a vendor to deliver comprehensive economic development labour market research and program services. This includes conducting workforce analysis to assess the current labour supply, characteristics, working-age population, workforce size and composition, along with identifying gaps or shortages in the region.

Additionally, the vendor will provide a review of the business and industry landscape, identifying key sectors, major employers, economic drivers, and detailing business size and industry types. The assessment will also cover current and future employment opportunities, with a focus on emerging, seasonal, and projected trends.

A vital component of the project is stakeholder and community engagement, ensuring feedback from employers, service providers, and other key partners is incorporated. The final deliverables will include detailed recommendations to support future workforce development initiatives, assist in funding applications, and inform policy or program development.
