Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) appears to be seeking moving companies for an ongoing Supply Arrangement covering office relocations and movement of furniture, equipment, boxes, and supplies across Canada. Work may be requested on an as-needed basis, so the notice does not appear to guarantee any specific volume of business. Potentially relevant services include: • Inter-building or inter-office moves within a building or site • Local moves within a city • Moves within a province • Moves between provinces The listed coverage includes most Canadian provinces and territories, the National Capital Region, Gatineau, and Canada generally. The description indicates that areas covered by Comprehensive Land Claim Agreements may be excluded. The arrangement is intended to allow new suppliers to apply and be added if they meet the requirements; existing qualified suppliers do not need to submit a new arrangement. The notice includes amendments changing the mandatory criteria and the bid-solicitation section. These changes should be reviewed carefully because they may affect whether a business can submit an acceptable arrangement. The tender is marked open and shows a closing time of October 11, 2033 at 2:00 p.m.; this unusually distant date should be confirmed in the latest official amendment and tender documents. A moving company with suitable personnel, equipment, geographic coverage, and experience may find this opportunity potentially relevant, but this summary does not establish eligibility or qualification. Review the latest RFSA and all amendments, including the mandatory criteria, submission instructions, service regions, insurance and other contractual requirements, and confirm the deadline before submitting. Documents are available through the Canada Buys links provided in the tender record.
