READY4SMR
READY4SMR is an initiative of the Organization of Canadian Nuclear Industries (OCNI).
In partnership with Saskatchewan Industrial Mining Association (SIMSA) and First Nation Power Authority (FNPA), Saskatchewan’s Ready4SMR Program will guide you through the process to become ready to supply goods and services to the future SMR supply chain in Saskatchewan’s growing nuclear industry.


The Ready4SMR program was launched in 2022 as part of the Canada SMR Action Plan (Canada’s Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Action Plan (smractionplan.ca).
