Canada is seeking to establish a contract for scientific editing
services for the Department of Natural Resources, CanmetENERGY
located at Devon, Alberta.
CanmetENERGY conducts scientific research projects for client

research arm in these fields. The results of research projects
conducted by CanmetENERGY and the related conclusions and
recommendations are documented in reports, technical journals or
public presentations that constitute the final product delivered
to industry clients. In keeping with CanmetENERGY's reputation
for excellence, it is important that client reports reflect the
same high standards that govern its scientific activities, both

accurately and clearly outline project objectives, describe the
research work performed and the methods used, present and
discuss the results, and state the conclusions and
recommendations.
