Task professional services (TSPS)
Public summary
Generated or condensed from imported source text. Verify before bidding.
This open PSPC opportunity is a Request for Supply Arrangements (RFSA) for non-IT, task-based professional services across Canada, excluding locations covered by Comprehensive Land Claims Agreements. It appears intended to add new suppliers to the Task and Solutions Professional Services (TSPS) Task-based Supply Arrangement, or allow existing suppliers to add categories, streams, tiers, regions, or metropolitan areas. Important points: - This is not a contract or a guarantee of work. A supply arrangement only allows the Government of Canada to solicit future requirements from pre-qualified suppliers. - Future work is expected to involve professional-services requirements at or above the Canada–Korea Free Trade Agreement threshold. - The arrangement is described as a mandatory federal procurement method for applicable TSPS requirements. - New supplier applications and amendments for existing suppliers are accepted through recurring quarterly solicitation periods. - Suppliers must create and maintain an account in the PWGSC Centralized Professional Services System (CPSS) Supplier Module and submit bids through that e-portal. - Supporting documents may need to be provided by email if requested. The process is described as paperless. - Some future requirements may be set aside under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business. - Services may need to be delivered in English, French, or both, depending on the client department’s requirements. - The listed closing date is July 4, 2028, at 2:00 p.m.; the official notice and latest amendment should be checked carefully because the tender record includes multiple amendment files and dates. This opportunity potentially matches a Canadian professional-services firm seeking federal government work, but the business would need to review the full RFSA, applicable TSPS categories and qualification criteria, CPSS instructions, submission requirements, and any set-aside or regional conditions. Verify all requirements, deadlines, amendments, and the correct submission process in the official tender notice before submitting a bid. PSPC’s listed RFSA contact is [email protected].
