1 Request for Proposals Atlantic Canada Oil and Gas International Business Development (IBD) Strategy Introduction In response to shared international business development interests, the Federal Government and the four Atlantic provincial governments have established a five year, $20 million international business development program known as the Atlantic Canada Trade and Investment Agreement (ATIGA). The general ATIGA mission is to Expand business activities between Atlantic Canada and international markets, and strategically market the region as a whole by displaying the best Atlantic Canada has to offer the world to attract new investments. This is to be reflected in the following outcomes: - Increase the Atlantic exporter base - Increase the value of Atlantic exports - Increase the number of Atlantic exporters diversifying into global markets - Increase foreign direct investment in Atlantic Canada To plan and oversee international business development (IBD) initiatives for Atlantic Canada, the ATIGA Oil and Gas sector team ( the Team ) was established in early On behalf of the ATIGA Oil and Gas sector team, the Newfoundland and Labrador Oil and Gas Industries Association (Noia) is requesting proposals from interested firms to support development of a multi-year oil and gas international business development strategy. Background The Oil and Gas sector is a key driver of Atlantic Canadian export activity. The Government of Canada s trade statistics show that extraction and refining of petroleum products account for over 50% of Atlantic Canada s export annually. This activity involves international networks which can be leveraged to provide market access, joint venture partnering, investment opportunities and technology and knowledge transfer. The resulting capabilities in the Atlantic supplier base come from decades of business operations and present a variety of product and service innovations and technologies. Atlantic Canada can expand global linkages to develop further opportunities with international clients, customers, suppliers and joint venture partners. This includes established and potential linkages to global supply chains which service the Atlantic region and oil and gas developments throughout the world. Oversight of ATIGA efforts to support the oil and gas sector will be provided by a nine member team representing the Atlantic Canadian industry and federal and provincial governments. The following 1
2 groups currently comprise the Team: Newfoundland and Labrador Oil and Gas Industries Association, The Maritimes Energy Association MEA), the Governments of Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, Global Affairs Canada (GAC), the Atlantic Canada Energy Office, Export Development Canada (EDC) and the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA). As industry cochair for , Noia will lead the administration for the strategy planning process. About Noia Established in 1977, and now with almost 600 member companies, Noia is Canada's largest offshore petroleum association. Noia core members provide products and services for the petroleum industry and associate members represent operators, trade associations, educational institutions and government bodies. Noia's Mission To promote development of East Coast Canada s hydrocarbon resources and to facilitate our membership s participation in global oil and gas industries. As a member-directed association, Noia provides: Access to Business Opportunities Noia captures and disseminates information relevant to its membership s business opportunities. Noia gathers and provides analysis of information that is relevant to the market segments of the Noia Membership, for the purpose of facilitating participation in the oil and gas industry A Voice for the Supply and Service Sector Advocacy is a fundamental component of Noia s activities. Noia works to influence outcomes in public policy, industry policy and resource allocation decisions within the political, economic and social systems and institutions that directly affect its members participation in the oil and gas industry Industry Promotion Noia creates awareness and promotes the positive impacts of the industry to stakeholders, external groups and the public. Noia s marketing and communications activities raise the profile of the Newfoundland and Labrador oil & gas industry to a national and international audience. Networking and Events Noia provides members with a wide-ranging program of events aimed at introducing its members to key stakeholders in the industry. These events include its flagship event, Noia s annual conference, networking lunches, seminars and supplier development sessions. To deliver its membership programs and services effectively, Noia has established a strong network of volunteers and a highly-skilled staff team. As a not-for-profit organization, Noia is governed by a volunteer board of directors which provides strategic direction to the Association s professional staff. The Board s Chair, Vice-Chair, Past-Chair and Treasurer, together with the President and CEO, make up the Executive Committee. Committees are 2

This will provide for an informed strategy driven by assessment of export opportunities and Atlantic company areas of capability and international interest. The planning process will consider two key phases designed to identify key priorities and to produce a roadmap for program activity: A. Sector Outreach and Analysis. Company consultation, needs analysis and market identification and evaluation will be completed as a basis for development and implementation of support initiatives. This is expected to include: 1. Sector Outreach and Analysis: - Secondary research and literature review. With the support of the Team, the consultant will compile a sector profile and a report on key findings from a review of relevant documents for planning and reference purposes. - Client input (surveys, workshops, focus groups, etc.). The Team will provide direction on 5
6 firms and key industry players to be invited to provide input. - Industry support group and agency consultations and interviews. 2. Analysis and Identification of Priority Areas: - Sub sectors by area of activity. - Key international business needs and interests based on firm level feedback. - Geographic markets of interest prioritized based on opportunity including attainability of successful outcomes for exporting and foreign direct investment objectives and fit with Atlantic capabilities and interests. - Program approach and models. - Suggested international business development activities. - Foreign market activities targeted at larger foreign companies which have or may secure large contracts within Atlantic Canada Deliverable: An interim report on key findings related to sub sector areas of capability, market opportunities and client objectives and needs. This will be contained in a sector profile and supporting documentation including: - Repository and list of documents and interviews. - Overview of the state of the sector. This should include sector details such as: size; composition (verticals/sub-sectors); key economic indicators, industry drivers and restraints. - Key international market opportunities for Atlantic Canada. - A sector profile focused on international opportunities indicating Atlantic firms grouped by key sub sectors. - Sector eco-system supports for internationalization (R&D, academia; associations, etc.) - Identification of detailed sector export objectives. The interim report will be provided by October 30, B. Objectives and Goal Setting: It is anticipated that the work conducted through sector outreach and analysis would be presented to the Team who would work with the consultant to establish the export objectives and goals, and confirm direction for development of the Implementation Plan. This will take place upon presentation of the interim report and will lead to establishment of following key parameters: 1. Select export objectives and goals based on capabilities, opportunities and challenges that provide the basis for program activities. 2. Select key sub sector groups and areas of competency. This could include mini-networks which align around areas of common opportunity. These groups can be aligned around areas of capability (company capabilities and capacity); supply and value chain participation/opportunity; industry 6
7 lifecycle characteristics; markets (geographical or sectoral) and associated growth potential; 3. Preliminary identification of a short list of target sub sector and geographic markets. Deliverable: By November 10, 2017, the consultant will prepare a report on objectives and goals based on feedback from the team. C. Implementation Plan: The research, analysis and goal setting process will provide the basis for a three year international development business strategy. To complete the planning process the following process will be utilized: 1. Development - In discussion with the Team, confirm the approach to completing the sector strategy. 2. Engagement/Validation - In discussion and collaboration with the Team identify the most efficient and effective mechanisms (ex. roundtables, workshops, one-on-ones, etc.) to engage industry to validate findings and direction of the strategy.
