Investigations

Thomson Reuters says Westlaw, Practical Law and CLEAR have achieved FedRAMP certification, sponsored by the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Health and Human Services. The status gives agencies additional cloud offerings to evaluate for legal research, investigations and risk management, but the announcements disclose no new solicitation, pricing or acquisition timeline.

The RCMP is investigating alleged fraud, breach of trust and money laundering in procurement at Alberta Health and Alberta Health Services; no charges have been laid, and allegations remain untested. The reported scale of supplier business and Alberta’s plan to implement 18 procurement-review recommendations by year-end 2026 put contract controls and compliance practices in focus, though no new opportunity has been announced.
