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

Defence Construction Canada (DCC) is seeking engineering consulting firms for environmental work at various Department of National Defence locations in Nunavut. The work potentially includes contaminated-site assessments, monitoring and remediation; environmental compliance inspections and audits; natural-resources and infrastructure advice; designated-substance surveys; hazardous-material assessments; and related specialties such as archaeological assessments. This opportunity appears restricted to qualified Inuit Firms that are registered and in good standing with the Inuit Firm Registry, because of the Nunavut Agreement and federal contracting requirements. Evaluation will consider factors such as Inuit employment, training, subcontracting to Inuit firms, and offices or facilities in the Nunavut Settlement Area. DCC expects to select three firms for a two-year Source List, with possible extensions of up to three additional one-year periods. The estimated value is $15 million for the initial two-year period, with a possible additional increase of approximately $15 million during the extended term. Individual assignments are expected to be approximately $200,000 to $1.5 million, with no stated maximum. Successful consultants will be required to hold a valid Designated Organization Screening (DOS) issued through the federal Contract Security Program. The stated closing date is October 14, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. The proposal must be submitted electronically through MERX. The opportunity is listed in Ottawa, but the anticipated services are in Nunavut. Firms should review the complete RFAP for mandatory qualifications, Inuit Firm Registry requirements, security provisions, evaluation criteria, rates, and submission instructions. Verify the closing time, time zone, and all requirements in the official MERX notice before deciding whether to submit a bid.

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

This appears to be an open Canadian defence-innovation challenge seeking modular wind-powered electricity systems for remote northern DND/CAF locations. 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. Designs should also address low and high wind conditions, minimal human intervention, locally serviceable parts and the challenges of permafrost movement and seasonal ground conditions. The opportunity is issued under the IDEaS Call for Proposals 006 and may accept technologies from early research through mature systems (TRL 1–9). Potential funding levels are: - Component 1a (TRL 1–3): up to $250,000 CAD for up to 6 months - Component 1b (TRL 4–5): up to $1.5 million CAD for up to 12 months - Component 2 (TRL 6–9): up to $5 million CAD, with the performance period determined during negotiations Multiple contracts could result, but the stated amounts do not guarantee funding or a contract. The notice closes October 20, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. A proposal is to be submitted through the Defence Innovation Portal after reviewing the challenge and the IDEaS call documents. 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. The available description is truncated, so the full essential outcomes, evaluation criteria, security or contracting requirements and submission instructions should be reviewed carefully. Before submitting anything, verify the current official tender notice and all amendments—particularly the two linked PDFs—and confirm the closing time, eligible applicant requirements, applicable component and portal instructions.

This open Innovation for Defence Excellence and Security (IDEaS) challenge appears relevant to Canadian businesses developing software for military communications and data integration.

Review the official tender notice, the IDEaS Call for Proposals, and the two linked PDFs before deciding whether to submit. This summary does not determine whether your business qualifies, and all dates, funding limits, and requirements should be verified with the official notice.

Defence Construction Canada - National Capital Region - Ottawa, Ontario

This appears to be an Advance Procurement Notice from Defence Construction Canada for large-scale facilities maintenance and support services in Northern Canada. It is not currently a bid solicitation or request for proposals, and there is no guarantee that the future contracts will proceed. The potential work would cover about 100 buildings and related infrastructure, including roads, parking areas, utilities and landscaped areas in Churchill, Manitoba; Inuvik and Yellowknife; Whitehorse; and several Nunavut locations including Iqaluit, Resolute Bay, Rankin Inlet and Eureka. Services could include HVAC, electrical, plumbing, fire and life-safety systems, generators, security systems, janitorial work, landscaping, snow and ice control, waste and environmental services, emergency response, help desk support and maintenance management.DCC anticipates two possible contracts: one for Manitoba, the Northwest Territories and Yukon, with an estimated potential value of $240 million, and another for Nunavut, estimated at $225 million. Each could run for five years, with two optional three-year extensions, for a possible total of up to 11 years. Future solicitations are anticipated around winter 2026–2027, with service commencement anticipated in winter 2028, subject to DND approval. The notice is shown as closing November 30, 2026 at 2:00 p.m.; this appears to relate to the advance notice and should be confirmed in the official documents. Security requirements are expected. The anticipated clearance is a Secret-level Facility Security Clearance, and DCC is offering an Industrial Security Program sponsorship process for interested contractors that do not already hold the required clearance. Sponsorship does not guarantee that clearance will be granted or that it will be completed in time for a future bid. This opportunity may be relevant to established facilities-management contractors, specialist service providers, and Indigenous businesses or northern community partners. Smaller businesses may potentially participate through subcontracting, employment or training arrangements, although the future solicitation will determine the actual requirements, evaluation criteria, insurance, bonding, security and northern delivery obligations. Your business should not assume it qualifies based only on this notice. Review the official tender information and any later solicitation carefully, and contact DCC through the official process to confirm the sponsorship steps and deadlines before deciding whether to pursue it.Official source: https://www.merx.com/public/solicitations/4083739956/abstract?language=EN

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

This open tender appears relevant to businesses that provide in-water vessel cleaning with capture services, especially companies with equipment suited to different vessel coatings. The buyer is the Department of Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC/PSPC), and the work would be for various Government of Canada departments and agencies on an as-needed basis. The process is a Request for Supply Arrangements (RFSA), which means it appears intended to create a list of qualified contractors by stream rather than award a single one-time contract. Key details: -Title: F7044-200268 - RFSA Refresh for In-Water Vessel Cleaning with Capture -Buyer: PSPC / PWGSC -Status: Open -Location: Canada, Gatineau, Quebec -Closing date: 2026-12-31 14:00:00 -Category: Services Plain-English summary: The government is looking for suppliers that can clean vessels while in the water and capture debris or contaminants, helping reduce the spread of aquatic invasive species and protect the marine environment. The arrangement would likely be used across multiple federal departments, and suppliers may be selected based on their proposed equipment and the vessel coating they can work with. What this may mean for a business: - Could potentially match marine service providers, environmental service firms, or contractors with specialized vessel-cleaning equipment. - The RFSA structure suggests there may be multiple suppliers approved, depending on the stream they fit. - Businesses should review the streams, technical requirements, environmental requirements, insurance, and any compliance criteria carefully.Important reminder: Please verify all details in the official tender notice and supporting documents before deciding whether to bid or submit an arrangement application, since this summary is only based on the information provided here.

This appears to be an advance procurement notice rather than the complete bid solicitation. **Potential relevance:** This may be relevant to Canadian construction, environmental remediation, northern logistics, and related contractors with the capacity to work in remote Nunavut locations. The available information does not establish whether any particular business meets the eventual requirements. **Important next steps:** Review the latest tender documents and Amendment 004 carefully, as amendments may change the requirements, schedule, site-visit arrangements, or submission instructions. Confirm whether a response to the Letter of Interest is required, how interest must be submitted, and whether a later formal request for proposals will be issued. Verify all dates, eligibility conditions, mandatory experience, bonding, security, insurance, Indigenous participation or subcontracting requirements, travel and logistics obligations, and submission procedures in the official Canada Buys notice and its attachments before taking part or submitting anything. The tender record provided does not include a separate official-source URL, but several Canada Buys PDF documents are listed, including versions and Amendment 004.

Defence Construction Canada - Atlantic Region - Bedford, Nova Scotia

This is an advance notice—not a bid solicitation or request for proposals—for potential construction, consulting, maintenance, and other real-property opportunities at 14 Wing Greenwood in Nova Scotia. Defence Construction Canada (Atlantic Region) is using the notice to inform contractors and consultants about possible future work supporting base operations and housing programs. Potential opportunities may be advertised later through open tenders or RFPs on MERX and, where applicable, Canada Buys. Some lower-value work may be offered only to businesses listed on specific source lists. The notice identifies an Open Construction Source List (OCSL) and Quick Response Tender lists for commercial general contracting, residential general contracting, and mechanical contracting. Businesses interested in these channels should review the relevant MERX postings and application instructions; a MERX account is reportedly required for the OCSL application. Some projects may involve security requirements, and interested businesses may need to begin a sponsorship or security-clearance process. The notice warns that clearances may not be granted or completed within expected timelines. Certain projects may also be reserved for Indigenous businesses under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business. There is no guarantee that any of the potential projects will proceed, and this notice does not itself invite bids. The listed closing date is March 31, 2027 at 1:00 p.m.; confirm whether this is an information or source-list deadline in the official notice. The tender data lists Bedford, Nova Scotia, while the notice describes work at 14 Wing Greenwood, so the location and other metadata should also be checked. A business that provides relevant construction, engineering, environmental, maintenance, consulting, or related services may find this notice potentially relevant, but its suitability and any future eligibility requirements cannot be determined from this advance notice alone. Review the complete official MERX notice and any later solicitation carefully before applying or submitting a bid: https://www.merx.com/public/solicitations/3892363401/abstract?language=EN

Defence Construction Canada - Atlantic Region - Bedford, Nova Scotia

This tender appears to be an Advance Procurement Notice from Defence Construction Canada for upcoming work at 5 Wing Goose Bay in Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador. It is not a bid solicitation yet, so there is no immediate request for pricing or proposals. The notice is mainly meant to alert contractors and consultants to prepare for future opportunities in base operations, housing agency, and real property work. A few points stand out: - Future opportunities may be tendered through MERX, Canada Buys, source lists, standing offers, or standing offer agreements. - Some work may require security clearances, and the notice says sponsorship for clearances may be needed in advance. - Some projects may be set aside for Indigenous businesses under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business (PSIB). - The Open Construction Source List for 5 Wing Goose Bay is currently open on MERX, and interested contractors are invited to apply. For a Canadian business owner, this looks potentially relevant if you do construction, consulting, trades, environmental, or related services and can work on federal defence-related projects in Labrador. The key next step would be to review the official MERX notice and any attached document listing the anticipated projects, because the future opportunities, timelines, security requirements, and eligibility conditions are not fully confirmed here. Please verify the official notice carefully before taking any action or preparing a bid.
