Code Three Emergency Vehicles Now Accessible Through Canoe and Sourcewell

Code Three Emergency Vehicles is now accessible to public sector buyers through both Canoe Procurement Group of Canada and Sourcewell cooperative purchasing, via our OEM partner, Road Rescue.

This expands how municipalities, First Nations, and public agencies across Canada can procure emergency vehicles—making the process faster, more compliant, and significantly less complex.

What This Means for Buyers

Procurement is often one of the biggest barriers to moving critical fleet projects forward. Lengthy tender processes, compliance requirements, and internal approvals can delay urgently needed equipment.

By leveraging Canoe and Sourcewell, eligible agencies can:

  • Streamline procurement through pre-established cooperative purchasing agreements

  • Reduce administrative burden by avoiding full tender processes (where applicable)

  • Access trusted, competitively solicited contracts

  • Move faster from approval to delivery

For departments under pressure to modernize fleets or respond to growing service demands, this provides a practical path to action.

How Code Three Fits In

As a Canadian dealer and solutions provider for Road Rescue, Code Three supports the delivery of:

  • Ambulances and patient transport vehicles

  • Mobile treatment centres

  • Specialty emergency response units

  • Custom upfitting and fleet solutions

Through Road Rescue’s participation in Canoe and Sourcewell, Code Three can help agencies navigate cooperative purchasing while still delivering locally supported, customized solutions.

Why Cooperative Purchasing Matters

Cooperative procurement networks like Canoe and Sourcewell are designed to:

  • Ensure fair, competitive pricing through pre-solicited contracts

  • Maintain compliance with public-sector procurement standards

  • Enable agencies to purchase with confidence and speed

For many organizations, this approach balances the need for due diligence with the reality of urgent operational requirements.

A Simpler Path to Deployment

For Code Three customers, this isn’t just about procurement—it’s about getting the right vehicles into service sooner.

Our team works alongside agencies to:

  • Confirm eligibility and procurement pathways

  • Align vehicle specifications with operational needs

  • Coordinate build, delivery, and support

The result is a more direct path from requirement to deployment—without compromising quality, compliance, or customization.
