Public summary
Generated or condensed from imported source text. Verify before bidding.
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) appears to be seeking a contractor to study the full life cycle of fuel storage tank systems in Canada—from installation and maintenance to decommissioning and removal. The work would include a technical assessment and cost-benefit analysis of commonly used industry procedures, leak-detection options, environmental impacts, resource needs, benefits, challenges, and operational, regulatory, policy, and socioeconomic risks. The contractor would be expected to review requirements and practices under the National Fire Code of Canada, CSA B139, the CCME Code of Practice, and other requirements set by applicable authorities having jurisdiction. The study should consider the needs of regulated businesses and stakeholders such as certified installers, professional engineers, project managers, consultants, and manufacturers. The requested project team includes expertise in four areas: Licensed Professional Engineer, Petroleum Storage Tank System Technician, Petroleum Storage Tank Systems Compliance Specialist, and Project Manager. One person may potentially fill multiple categories, except that the Professional Engineer and Storage Tank System Technician must be different individuals. The resource titles are descriptive and do not necessarily limit how a bidder structures its team. The contract is expected to run from approximately October 1, 2026, through December 31, 2027. The tender is open and closes October 2, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. The work is associated with ECCC and the National Capital Region, including Gatineau, Quebec, although the scope concerns fuel storage systems across Canada. This opportunity may be relevant to firms with fuel storage tank engineering, inspection, compliance, environmental, regulatory, economic analysis, or project management capabilities, potentially including firms that can assemble the required multidisciplinary team. The tender record indicates that Amendment 001 changed the closing date, answered industry questions, and amended the UNSPSC classification. Before deciding whether to bid, review the complete official solicitation, statement of work, technical criteria, mandatory requirements, security or contracting requirements, submission instructions, and Amendment 001.
