I call the meeting to order.
The committee in front of us took a little bit more time than we had anticipated, so if we can get going, I would appreciate it. We are continuing, of course, with our examination of small and medium enterprises with respect to federal procurement.
With us today we have a couple of organizations. We have, representing the Information Technology Association of Canada, Mr. Nevin French and Mr. André Leduc. From Strategic Relationships Solutions Inc., we have Andy Akrouche.
Thank you all, gentlemen, for being here.
Without further ado—I think you all know how the committee operates—we'll have opening statements from at least two of you, followed by a series of questions from all of our committee members.
Mr. Leduc, you're first up, for 10 minutes or less, please.
