Legacy engineering CDI is a long-standing provider of engineering and IT staffing with a presence across Canada, offering opportunities to upsell larger, multi-region workforce solutions to clients in telecommunications, government, and manufacturing.

Full service staffing With capabilities spanning engineering, IT outsourcing, life sciences and financial staffing, there are cross-selling opportunities to existing clients for expanded staffing needs, project-based outsourcing, and contractor-to-permanent placements.

Strategic locations Strategically located offices in major Canadian cities enable region-specific proposals and government or enterprise bids, suggesting targeted outreach to provincial agencies and large employers with multi-city staffing requirements.

Growth via acquisitions Historical M&A activity (asset sale and integration with Belcan and AEI) indicates a potential client and partner funnel for IT/engineering services, suggesting identifying firms undergoing transition or seeking scale in Canada.

Compliance and risk Past ERISA and fiduciary concerns highlight an opportunity to position CDI as a compliant, governance-focused staffing partner, offering robust HR, compliance, and risk-managed solutions for complex benefit plans and regulated industries.
