Winnipeg Environmental Remediations Inc. - MEDO Developments is also continuing to work on a partnership with Winnipeg Environmental Remediations Inc. (WERI). Central to the discussions is the pursuit of heavy construction and environmental reclamation projects in Manitoba and outside the province. The current plan proposes that WERI would form a general contractor to manage projects and would sub contract to qualified and interested Metis owned businesses. Access to those businesses would be coordinated by MEDO Developments, thus generating a fee from the contract for MEDO Developments. Discussions with WERI remain ongoing as of the current date.

NCSG - A partnership agreement has been established with crane contractor NCSG. This company is one of the largest heavy equipment providers in North America. The partnership will assist both companies in pursuing additional business. NCSG will have access to MEDO’s other partners as well as Aboriginal set asides that may be negotiated or offered. Meanwhile, MEDO Developments can earn a percentage of revenue generated from the contracts it helps facilitate, and can potentially offer additional workforce development opportunities to Metis persons looking to train as heavy equipment operators.
