Department of Natural Resources (NRCan) - *Canada, *Unspecified, Quebec, QC

**Tender summary — Energy-efficiency product testing and certification** Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is seeking suppliers for a **Request for Supply Arrangement (RFSA)**. The goal is to create a pool of suppliers that can test and certify products covered by Canada’s Energy Efficiency Regulations, as well as fenestration products such as windows and doors. This is a **qualification opportunity**, not necessarily a contract for immediate work. Suppliers that meet NRCan’s evaluation requirements may be added to the qualified supplier pool and could later be selected for specific testing assignments. **Potentially relevant businesses** may include laboratories, testing organizations, engineering firms, and other suppliers with suitable facilities, equipment, personnel, andexperience in one or more of these areas: 1. Commercial refrigeration equipment 2. Industrial and commercial equipment 3. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) 4. Household appliances 5. Water heaters 6. Electronics 7. Lighting 8. Fenestration products Each category is evaluated separately. A supplier may seek qualification in up to all eight categories and should clearly identify the applicable category number(s) in the title of its submission. Suppliers already issued a supply arrangement under RFSA **NRCan-5000091272** generally do not need to submit a new arrangement, including signed amendments. The arrangement has no stated end date and is expected to remain in place while NRCan considers it useful. The tender record lists Quebec and Canada as the location, but the work requirements and any location-specific conditions should be confirmed in the official documents. The listed closing date is **December 31, 2040 at 2:00 p.m.** This unusually distant date should be verified, along with submission instructions, mandatory requirements, evaluation criteria, certifications, and applicable testing standards. **Official documents to review:** -RFSA: https://canadabuys.canada.ca/sites/default/files/webform/tender_notice/84049/rfsa-nrcan-5000091272-a.pdf - Amendment/document: https://canadabuys.canada.ca/sites/default/files/webform/tender_notice/84049/rfsa-nrcan-5000091272_a-001.pdf -Questions and answers: https://canadabuys.canada.ca/sites/default/files/webform/tender_notice/84049/nrcan-5000091272---qa---qr-no.-1_0.pdf This opportunity **appears relevant** to Canadian organizations with specialized product-testing and certification capabilities, but your business should verify the complete official tender notice and current Government Electronic Tendering Service (GETS) posting before preparing or submitting an arrangement.

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

This open opportunity appears to seek contractors for a Supply Arrangement related to grass cutting and minor groundskeeping at various Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Halifax sites in Nova Scotia. The resulting arrangement would create a list of potentially pre-qualified contractors who may later be invited to bid on specific work. The work may include providing all required labour, materials, tools, equipment, transportation, and supervision for grass cutting, trimming, cleanup of grass and weeds, and related minor groundskeeping services.Buyer: Public Works and Government Services Canada (PSPC)Tender reference: W684H-240211Reported closing date: September 30, 2050, at 10:00 a.m. The unusually distant date should be confirmed in the official notice.Location information: The description identifies CFB Halifax sites throughout Nova Scotia, but the listing also displays “Nova Scotia, Gatineau, Quebec” and province code “QU.” This apparent inconsistency should be checked.

Technical and contractual questions are listed as directed to [email protected] the official notice at: https://discovery.ariba.com/rfx/21074276?extsite=Mj Ew Nz Qy Nz ZfQU4wMTQ4NDA1MDk5Mg==.

Parks Canada is seeking accessibility assessment consulting firms for a national Supply Arrangement.

Correctional Service Canada - *Canada, Ottawa, ON

Correctional Service Canada (CSC) has published an open public notice about an “Inmate Purchasing Plan.” This is not a standard contract award opportunity. CSC intends to establish a business account arrangement with a pre-identified e-commerce supplier and is inviting other suppliers to submit a statement of capabilities if they may be able to provide the required services. CSC states that it will not award a contract as a direct result of this notice; instead, it may create a list of potential suppliers. The potential supplier would provide an online business account for authorized CSC personnel to order approved inmate personal-property items. The platform would need to operate 24/7, restrict access to authorized users, provide individual credentials and order confirmations, support returns and replacements, and offer only items approved by CSC. Required goods would need to be delivered across Canada to CSC institutions, with standard delivery stated as 7–14 calendar days and standardized pricing that includes delivery. The supplier would also be expected to provide an account manager, configure user profiles and approved-item lists, manage shipping details, provide bilingual English/French training materials and remote training, and operate bilingual customer service by email and telephone, including a toll-free number. The goods list and CSC institution list are provided in the attached documents, including the listed PDFs. This opportunity may be relevant to an e-commerce business with nationwide fulfillment, controlled product catalogues, returns management, secure business-account functionality, and bilingual Canadian customer support. The notice does not establish that any particular business qualifies, and suppliers would need to demonstrate their capabilities against the complete requirements and attachments. The notice shows a closing date of December 31, 2100, at 1:00 p.m., which appears unusual and should be confirmed. It is a republication of an earlier notice, and suppliers previously subscribed to notifications are told to subscribe again. Review the original notice and all current attachments on Canada Buys before preparingor submitting a statement of capabilities: https://canadabuys.canada.ca/en/tender-opportunities/tender-notice/pw-21-00974352. Verify the official closing date, submission instructions, item list, institution list, and any security, privacy, accessibility, bilingual-service, delivery, or account-management requirements directly in the official tender notice.
