Calian Group Ltd. announced a $250 million amendment to its Health Care Provider Recruitment (HCPR) contract with the Department of National Defence (DND). This amendment reinforces Calian's commitment to the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and its members--ensuring the continued delivery of essential health services to support their operational readiness and well-being. The contract amendment activates a previously approved option.

It consolidates unspent funds from Option Period 5 with planned funding for Option Period 6, ensuring uninterrupted delivery of care across CAF clinics, supporting both day-to-day readiness and deployment capability. The award contributes to Calian's total contract backlog of $1.6 billion, two thirds of which is related to its defence business, supporting defence customers in Canada and internationally. This increase reflects the ongoing partnership between Calian and government and military organizations, as well as the continued trust in its services.

For over two decades, Calian has been an innovative and reliable partner to Canada's military. In an era of heightened global uncertainty, Calian's delivery of integrated healthcare solutions remains a vital component in enabling the CAF to respond with strength and resilience. Calian continues to support DND with mission-critical solutions, including healthcare, training and simulation, IT modernization and cybersecurity, satellite communications, and manufacturing and engineering.

These solutions play a fundamental role in strengthening Canada's defence posture, supporting the operational readiness of the CAF, and bolstering national resilience in an era of evolving threats.
