Funding for modular construction, building information modeling, and construction technology innovation.
Construction companies investing in modular building systems, BIM technology, sustainable materials, and automation are increasingly eligible for R&D funding. SR&ED covers the experimental development of new construction methods, while COJG funds workforce training on new technologies. Provincial programs support equipment modernization.

Start Free ScanYes. Developing novel construction methods, engineering new prefabrication systems, or creating innovative structural designs that involve technical uncertainty qualifies. Standard building to code does not.
Custom BIM tool development, integration of BIM with IoT sensors, or building digital twin platforms that require solving technical unknowns can qualify for SR&ED.
COJG covers up to $10,000 per employee for skills training. Many provinces offer additional construction-specific apprenticeship incentives.
