Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Canada, Gatineau, Quebec

This open Request for Information (RFI) from Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) seeks information about operational hand smoke grenades. It appears intended to help Canada understand available technologies, supplier capabilities, possible procurement approaches, and lifecycle support—not necessarily to award a contract at this stage. Potentially relevant businesses may include suppliers or technology providers with capabilities related to operational hand smoke grenades and associated support. The notice does not provide enough information to determine whether a particular company is suitable or eligible. Responses are requested by December 18, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. The notice lists Gatineau, Quebec, as the location and asks suppliers to send responses to [email protected]. Because this involves potentially regulated or controlled defence-related products, businesses should carefully review all applicable requirements and the complete RFI documentation. Verify the official tender notice, response instructions, security or regulatory requirements, and any amendments through the official source before responding.Official source: https://portal.us.bn.cloud.ariba.com/dashboard/public/appext/comsapsbncdiscoveryui#/Rfx Event/preview/1110028370?an Id=ANONYMOUS

Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *National Capital Region (NCR), Gatineau, Québec

Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) is seeking expressions of interest—not formal bids—for warehouse and office space that could be offered through a lease-purchase project in Ottawa or Gatineau, within the National Capital Region. This opportunity may be relevant to property owners, developers, or businesses able to provide suitable warehouse and office facilities. The notice is listed as open, with a closing time of December 18, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. The tender record identifies Gatineau, Quebec, although the title refers to both Ottawa and Gatineau. The description directs respondents to the attached PDF documents for the requirements and submission instructions. A Revision 1 dated October 5, 2026 reportedly corrects a link in Section G, so respondents should use the latest version and review all attachments carefully. An expression of interest does not necessarily mean PSPC will award a contract or proceed with a lease-purchase arrangement. Interested businesses should verify the space requirements, eligibility conditions, response format, deadlines, and any location or building specifications in the official tender documents before submitting. The available documents are: - https://canadabuys.canada.ca/sites/default/files/webform/tender_notice/107848/invitation-to-submit-an-expression-of-interest-%28eoi.pdf - https://canadabuys.canada.ca/sites/default/files/webform/tender_notice/107848/eoi-bs-2026-2---edi-ac-2026-2---r1---english-final.pdf

Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Canada, Gatineau, Quebec

PSPC appears to be seeking suppliers for Supply Arrangements covering various forklift truck configurations, identified as “E60HS 21FRKL A.” The arrangements may support future purchases across Canada, with the tender location listed as Canada and Gatineau, Quebec. Suppliers may submit an arrangement for a specific configuration within a group, but must include all items required within any configuration they choose to bid on. This suggests that partial submissions within a selected configuration may not be accepted. The tender is currently open. The stated final deadline is December 20, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The notice says to disregard other response deadlines shown in Ariba Discovery or Buyandsell; late bids may be declared non-responsive. A business considering this opportunity should review the official tender notice and Purchase Descriptions for the applicable forklift specifications, required supporting documents, submission process, and any supplier or product requirements. This opportunity appears potentially relevant to forklift manufacturers, distributors, or suppliers, but the available information is not enough to determine whether a particular business qualifies.

Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Canada, Gatineau, Quebec

Public Works and Government Services Canada (PSPC) is seeking suppliers to establish supply arrangements for various forklift truck configurations. These arrangements could be used by federal departments, agencies, and identified provincial or territorial users for deliveries across Canada. This appears to be an ongoing purchasing arrangement rather than a guaranteed contract or fixed-volume order. A supplier may submit an arrangement for a specific configuration within a group, but must include all items required for that configuration. The procurement is set aside under the Federal Government’s Procurement Strategy for Aboriginal Business (PSAB). To be considered, a supplier must certify that it meets the PSAB definition of an Aboriginal business and agrees to comply with PSAB requirements. The notice does not establish that any particular business qualifies. The stated submission deadline is December 20, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. The notice specifically says to disregard other response deadlines shown in Ariba Discovery or on Buyandsell; late submissions may be declared non-responsive. The listed location is Gatineau, Quebec, but delivery requirements may apply across Canada. After results are issued, offerors may request a debriefing within 15 working days of receiving the results. Before preparing a bid, review the complete official notice and all purchase descriptions, configuration requirements, PSAB certification conditions, submission instructions,and any amendments at the official source: https://portal.us.bn.cloud.ariba.com/dashboard/public/appext/comsapsbncdiscoveryui#/Rfx Event/preview/17236216?an Id=ANONYMOUS. Verify the deadline, time zone, required documents, and current status directly in the official tender materials.

Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Canada, Gatineau, QC

This appears to be an open Innovative Solutions Canada (ISC) challenge sponsored by Shared Services Canada and administered through Public Works and Government Services Canada. It seeks an AI governance solution that can make AI decision-making more visible and traceable, help maintain compliance with Canadian laws, policies and standards, identify affected AI systems when requirements change, and support reassessment, auditability, explainability and human oversight. Potentially relevant businesses may include Canadian AI, machine-learning, cybersecurity, compliance, enterprise-software or governance technology companies with a solution that can integrate with government enterprise systems and AI/ML lifecycle platforms. The notice specifically refers to standards-based APIs, connectors and interoperable data exchange for information such as AI-system metadata, risk assessments, compliance findings, audit evidence, monitoring results, approvals and decision records. The supplied description is truncated, so additional mandatory outcomes and evaluation requirements are not available here. The funding mechanism is a contract. The notice states that one Phase 2 contract is estimated, with a maximum value of $2,000,000 CAD excluding applicable taxes and certain expenses, and a maximum duration of up to 20 months. Multiple contracts could be awarded, but Canada does not commit to awarding the full stated amount. No travel is expected; meetings are planned by telephone or videoconference. To apply, the notice directs proponents to review ISC Call for Proposals 004 (EN578-24ISC4), then submit a proposal through the ISC challenge webpage. The listed closing date is December 22, 2026 at 2:00 p.m.; the description also says the ISC website will be available October 30, 2026 at 10:30 a.m. ET. Because the supplied record has no direct official-source URL and appears to contain incomplete text, confirm the deadline, submission method, eligibility rules, Phase 1 requirements, mandatory outcomes, evaluation criteria and contract terms in the official Canada Buys and ISC notices before preparing or submitting a proposal. This summary does not establish that any company qualifies.

Defence Construction Canada - Western Region - Edmonton, Alberta

This appears to be an Advance Procurement Notice—not a bid solicitation or request for proposals—for the planned replacement of Ramp B East at 15 Wing Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Defence Construction Canada, on behalf of the Department of National Defence, anticipates a construction contract valued at approximately $16 million, with a potential solicitation posting around January 2027 under contract number CN88327. The project may include temporary fencing and barriers, demolition and removal of existing concrete and granular materials, grading and compaction, new Portland cement concrete pavement, joint sealing, pavement markings, and landscaping. The opportunity is currently marked open, but there is no guarantee that the project will proceed. The notice indicates anticipated security requirements at the Designated Organization Screening (DOS) level. Contractors that may wish to bid and do not already hold the required clearance are encouraged to review DCC’s Industrial Security Program sponsorship process and begin any application steps early. The notice also states that Indigenous business participation may apply under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business. The tender data lists Edmonton, Alberta, while the project description and title identify 15 Wing Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan; this location discrepancy should be confirmed. Businesses should also review the complete official notice for sponsorship conditions, deadlines, technical requirements, bidding rules, insurance, bonding, and any mandatory qualifications. This notice alone does not establish that a company qualifies or can bid.

Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Canada, Gatineau, Québec

**Tender summary — Innovative Solutions Canada (ISC) Call for Proposals 004** Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), on behalf of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED), is seeking innovative, pre-commercial goods and services that could help federal departments address specific challenges.

The objective is to develop, test, and deliver a prototype. - Businesses completing Phase 1 may potentially be invited to Phase 2, but advancement is discretionary and not guaranteed. - Later opportunities may include the Testing Stream for late-stage prototypes, generally TRL 7–9, and a Pathway to Commercialization.

Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *National Capital Region (NCR), Gatineau, Quebec

This appears to be a test tender from Public Works and Government Services Canada (PSPC), marked open and closing on December 30, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. It is listed for the National Capital Region, including Gatineau, Quebec, under category “GD.” However, the description explicitly says: “This is a test. Please do not respond.” It therefore does not appear to be an active business opportunity. No tender documents were provided. Verify the official notice at https://discovery.ariba.com/rfx/23538567 before taking any action, and do not submit a bid unless the official notice confirms that responses are requested.

Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *National Capital Region (NCR), Gatineau, Quebec

This appears to be an open Request for Information (RFI) from PSPC for Command and Control (C2) tools supporting Land Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Modernization (LISRM). In plain English, the buyer is seeking industry input on software modules that can be integrated with existing networks and sensors to improve the Canadian Army’s operational effectiveness and situational awareness. The opportunity is located in the National Capital Region (Gatineau, Quebec) and is currently open with a closing date of 2026-12-31 09:30. For a Canadian business, this may be relevant if you provide defence-related software, C2 systems, integration services, or related digital capabilities. Because this is an RFI, it appears to be more about gathering market information than awarding a contract at this stage. You should verify all details directly in the official notice before deciding whether to respond or bid.

Defence Construction Canada - Atlantic Region - Bedford, Nova Scotia

This appears to be an Advance Procurement Notice, not a request for proposals yet. Defence Construction Canada is signalling a very large upcoming opportunity related to NORAD Northern Basing Infrastructure at Deployed Operating Base Goose Bay in Newfoundland and Labrador. The notice says the future contract may exceed $5B and would use a Modified Design-Build delivery model, covering phases such as requirements validation, design, and construction. The scope described includes major airfield and base infrastructure work such as hangars, aprons, taxiways, runway rehabilitation, fuel and ammunition facilities, accommodations, warehousing, IT/cyber/logistics infrastructure, roads, and fire hall facilities. Security requirements will apply, and the notice suggests interested design-builders may need to start sponsorship/security clearance steps, but it also states there is no guarantee the contract will proceed or that clearances will be granted. From a Canadian business perspective, this potentially matches firms with experience in large-scale northern design-build construction, airport/airfield works, military or secure facilities, and teams that can manage both design and construction together. Indigenous participation, logistics, climate, and constructability in northern environments are expected to matter in the eventual RFP.Important: the official notice should be verified carefully on MERX before making any bid decisions, because this is only a preliminary notice and the final RFP details, evaluation criteria, and timelines may change.
