The Government of Canada and the Department of National Defence operate in high-stakes, high-consequence environments. They need partners who execute with precision, speed, and accountability.
We specialize in planning and delivering mission-critical projects in remote, complex, and strategically sensitive locations; ensuring every tax dollar supports the mission, the mandate, and the public trust.
Canada’s strategic imperative
Canada’s security depends on infrastructure that works in the most challenging environments. The Canadian Armed Forces are entrusted with three core responsibilities: defending Canada, protecting North America, and contributing to global peace and security efforts.
The Arctic and maritime regions are central to Canada’s sovereignty, resilience, and continental defence—supporting connectivity, trade security, and rapid response. These priorities shape Canada’s role in North American and global security.
Where we make the difference
Infrastructure that enables sovereignty and security:
-
Aviation
Airfields, aerodromes, remote runways, forward refueling locations, and other aviation infrastructure support readiness and help keep military and civilian operations interconnected and mutually supportive. -
Maritime
Ports, jetties, bulk fuel, dry docks, repair, and other maritime facilities that support ships, submarines, CCG vessels, heavy sealift, resupply and icebreakers for rapid response, freedom of navigation, and secure trade routes. -
Power
Reliable and interoperable energy systems designed to be modular, scalable, redundant, and perform in the harshest environments. -
Arctic
Resilient, mission-critical, no-fail infrastructure north of 60° to sustain forward deployments, leverage and integrate existing assets, strengthen communities, and enhance situational awareness. -
Integrated operations
Coordinated defence and civilian infrastructure that accelerate deployment, shield the force, improve logistics, and enhance readiness across domains.
Why Hatch:
Hatch has been solving the world’s toughest challenges for over 60 years. Our engineering teams specialize in designing systems that perform in remote, high-risk environments. With a strong presence across Arctic and maritime regions, we bring practical insight into building for reliability and resilience in extreme conditions. Our defence experience spans decades, with the DEW (Distant Early Warning) Line project serving as an early example of our ability to deliver in extreme conditions. Beyond technical experience, our longstanding partnerships with Indigenous communities strengthen our understanding of the land, improve outcomes, and ensure projects are grounded in respect and collaboration.
