Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *British Columbia *Quebec (except NCR), Gatineau, Quebec
This is an open Request for Information (RFI), not necessarily a call for bids. Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC), for the Canadian Coast Guard, is gathering information about Landing Craft Motorized (LCMs) to support two Polar Icebreakers. The vessels would be used to move cargo and supplies between the icebreakers and shore, including in Arctic and ice-infested waters.PSPC is interested in information about: existing LCMs; modifying or converting existing vessels; adapting commercial or proven designs; and designing and building new vessels. This opportunity appears potentially relevant to Canadian companies involved in marine vessel construction, naval architecture, ship repair or conversion, commercial vessel design, propulsion systems, or Arctic and ice-capable marine operations. The notice does not indicate that a contract will be awarded through this RFI, and responding would not necessarily lead to a procurement opportunity. The stated locations are British Columbia and Quebec, excluding the National Capital Region, with Gatineau, Quebec also listed. The closing date is October 1, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. The official notice should be reviewed for response instructions, technical requirements, security or supplier-registration conditions, and any amendments.
