Defence Construction Canada - National Capital Region - Ottawa, Ontario
This is an open Advance Procurement Notice (APN) from Defence Construction Canada for potential construction, maintenance, modernization, professional-service, and consulting opportunities in the National Capital Region, including Ottawa and potentially Gatineau. The work may support DND Real Property Operations and Canadian Forces Housing Agency facilities, including administrative buildings, secure or mission-critical sites, training and logistics facilities, airfields, and military residential housing. This notice is not a bid solicitation or request for proposals. It does not guarantee that any project will proceed or that a contract will be awarded. Future opportunities would be issued separately through tenders, requests for proposals, source lists, standing offers, or other procurement tools on MERX and, where applicable, Canada Buys. Businesses may wish to review the anticipated project list in the MERX attachment, monitor future solicitations, and assess whether they need to begin any applicable security-clearance or sponsorship process. Some projects may have security requirements, and some may be reserved for Indigenous businesses under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business. The notice also identifies an Open Construction Source List for Ottawa/Gatineau—OCSL No. CR26SLWA_86073—which interested contractors can review on MERX; a MERX account is required to apply. The listed closing date is March 31, 2029 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time, but this date relates to the advance notice rather than a firm contract competition. This opportunity appears potentially relevant to Canadian construction, engineering, environmental, facilities-management, and consulting businesses serving the NCR, but the actual scope, eligibility conditions, security requirements, deadlines, and bidding process will depend on each later solicitation. Verify all details, attachments, project status, and submission instructions in the official MERX notice before taking action or submitting any bid.
