Defence Construction Canada / Construction de Défense Canada - Ottawa, Ontario

This tender appears to be a major Canadian defence-related construction opportunity from Defence Construction Canada (DCC). It is an open request for proposals for design-builder services using a modified design-build approach to design and construct multi-unit residential housing for the Canadian Forces Housing Agency in Quebec. There appear to be three separate contracts tied to three locations: 3 Wing CFB Bagotville, Montreal (Saint-Hubert), and CFB Valcartier. The estimated project values are very large: about $105–$131 million for Bagotville, $88–$109 million for Montreal (Saint-Hubert), and $486–$608 million for Valcartier. The closing date shown is October 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM, but the notice should be verified on MERX and in the official tender documents because dates and details can change. The notice says proposals must be submitted through the MERX Electronic Bidding System, and questions must go only to the listed point of contact. It also references trade agreement rules (CFTA, CETA, WTO-GPA) and DCC’s prompt payment information for contractors. For a Canadian business owner, this appears relevant if your company works in large-scale residential construction, design-build delivery, architecture, engineering, or as part of a qualified prime/design-build team. However, you should verify the official notice and the RFP documents to confirm the exact requirements, scope, bid format, teaming expectations, and any security, licensing, or experience conditions before deciding whether to bid.

Defence Construction Canada - National Capital Region - Ottawa, Ontario

**Tender summary — Housing Construction Plan (Advance Procurement Notice)** Defence Construction Canada, for the National Capital Region, has published an advance notice about a planned Canadian Forces housing construction program. This notice is **not a bid solicitation or request for proposals**, and there is no guarantee that the proposed contracts will proceed. The program is expected to use Modified Design-Build contracts combining site studies, architectural and engineering services, detailed design, infrastructure work, and construction. Projects are expected to focus mainly on higher-density, mid-rise apartment housing for Canadian Armed Forces members. **Potentially relevant upcoming locations:** - Wainwright, Cold Lake and Edmonton, Alberta — approximately $608 million combined - Winnipeg and Shilo, Manitoba — approximately $194 million combined - Borden, Kingston, North Bay and Petawawa, Ontario — approximately $1.076 billion combined - Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan — approximately $11 million The notice indicates these potential solicitations may begin in **fall 2026**, subject to Department of National Defence approval. Some locations may be procured separately, while others could be bundled into one Request for Proposals. Earlier RFPs for locations including Ottawa have reportedly already been published. The Government of Canada also expects potential opportunities for Indigenous businesses and communities through subcontracting, employment and training connected with the program. The notice shows a closing date of **October 15, 2026 at 2:00 p.m.**, but because this is an advance notice rather than a bid call, businesses should confirm what that date represents in the official posting. Documents and any future solicitation information are available through MERX, where fees may apply. This opportunity appears most relevant to design-builders, construction companies, architectural and engineering firms, major subcontractors, and businesses able to support large-scale residential construction. Review the official MERX notice and any later RFP documents carefully for mandatory requirements, procurement timelines, project-specific scopes, bonding, security, insurance, Indigenous participation provisions, and submission instructions before deciding whether to pursue it.

Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) - *Canada, *World, Ottawa, Ontario

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is seeking suppliers for its Professional Services Supply Chain (PSSC), covering IT and certain non-IT professional services. Successful contractors would provide consultants on an as-needed basis, mainly to the CRA’s Information Technology Branch in the National Capital Region, although work may come from other CRA branches and locations. Assignments may be remote or in person. The contract period is expected to run from April 1, 2027 to March 31, 2029, with up to three additional one-year extensions. CRA plans to rank responsive bids and award contracts to the five highest-ranked bidders. After that, individual requirements would generally be competed among those contractors. A potentially important requirement is that a bidder must be able to supply consultants for every listed category and level after award. The solicitation also includes security requirements, is limited to Canadian suppliers and bidders from applicable trading partners, and may apply the federal policy on prioritizing Canadian suppliers and Canadian content. The Federal Contractors Program for employment equity applies. Proposal materials must be submitted in English or French. The stated closing deadline is October 16, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. The tender indicates that bids must be submitted through Canada Post’s Connect service. Bidders must first ask CRA to open a Connect conversation using [email protected]; sending the proposal directly to that email address will not be accepted. Questions are to be sent in writing to [email protected]. CRA reports declining historical PSSC spending and warns that professional-services procurement may continue to decrease because of federal spending reductions. This may affect the volume of future work and should be considered when assessing the opportunity. This opportunity appears most relevant to a supplier with broad coverage across all required professional-service categories and levels, the ability to meet federal security and employment-equity obligations, and experience responding to large, competitive government procurements. The information provided does not establish whether any particular business qualifies. Before deciding to bid, review the complete official RFP, financial proposal documents, bidder billable-hours information, and all amendments—especially Amendment 001—and confirm the exact mandatory requirements, security levels, category definitions, evaluation method, forms, pricing rules, and Connect submission procedure. Verify the deadline and all details in the official tender notice before submitting a bid.

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

The proposed systems would need to produce approximately 25–100 kW, operate reliably in extreme cold, high winds and icing, and be transportable, deployable and maintainable in isolated areas with limited heavy-lift equipment.

This may be relevant to Canadian businesses, researchers or technology developers with applicable wind-energy, cold-climate engineering, remote logistics, power-generation or defence capabilities.
