First Nations Commitment

BModular acknowledges and supports the rights of the Indigenous peoples, not only for the reconciliation of the past but for the healing that is needed across Canada. The construction industry is no different than any other industry and we must educate, reflect, and act in support of the rights of the First Nations. BModular is committed to partnering with First Nations, their Leaders, businesses, and communities with complete transparency and open dialogue. It will only be through our acknowledgment, observation, respect, and engagement that will guide us in the business reconciliation with the First Nations. 

Our culture was founded with early collaboration and partnership. We value the direction and drive from our partnerships, and we listen and act on the feedback before the beginning of construction. We look to meaningful communication that invites Indigenous knowledge on projects and work alongside Indigenous organizations to hire and train individuals to contribute to the First Nations’ economy and needs for sustainability. 

This commitment to an inclusive Canadian construction industry benefits Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples with openness and fairness that bonds each project we undertake. We understand and respect all peoples of this Nation and look forward to listening, learning, partnering, and building with all communities from coast to coast to coast. 

Social Responsibility

BModular is committed to social procurement as defined by our ability to seek out diverse supply chain providers and develop a workforce that is diverse and inclusive. We are interconnected with associations and individuals that help identify suppliers and prepare workers to be successful in achieving social and economic independence.
