Letter of Interest / Advance Notice to Industry Multidisciplinary Environmental Services RFSODepartment of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Canada, Calgary, Alberta
This is an open Letter of Interest/advance notice from Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC), not a bid solicitation or contract opportunity yet. PSPC appears to be planning new Departmental Individual Standing Offers (DISOs) for multidisciplinary environmental consulting services in Western Canada, replacing expiring standing offers.
Potentially relevant services include environmental impact assessments, permitting and regulatory support, biological and archaeological studies, facility environmental compliance, hazardous materials surveys, air-quality and water sampling, storage-tank audits, contaminated-site assessments, geotechnical and risk assessments, remediation planning, tender support, site supervision, contract administration, and cost estimating.
The planned RFSO structure is:
-Prairies: Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
-Prairies PSIB: the same provinces, restricted to Indigenous suppliers under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business.
-Northwest: Northwest Territories.
-Nunavut: Nunavut Settlement Area, restricted to firms registered on the Inuit Firm Registry.
A consultant may be able to submit an offer under more than one RFSO, subject to the final requirements. Call-ups may be rotational, selective or competitive. Requirements up to $100,000 and those above $100,000 are expected to follow different call-up procedures, and PWGSC plans to consider vendor performance when distributing business. Modern treaties and comprehensive land claims agreements may create Indigenous participation, subcontracting, training or other socio-economic requirements. The Buy Canadian procurement policy is also expected to apply where relevant.
The notice indicates an optional online industry information session on September 22, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. Mountain Time. The notice’s stated closing date is September 30, 2026, at 1:00 p.m.; this appears to be the deadline for responding to the advance notice or related industry engagement, not a final contract-bid deadline. Amendment 01 removes Yukon from the requirement.
An environmental consulting firm operating in Alberta, Saskatchewan or Manitoba may find the planned Prairies stream potentially relevant, depending on its capabilities, Indigenous-business status where applicable, geographic coverage, registrations, and the final RFSO conditions. No qualification or future award is assured. Review the complete official tender notice and both attached PDF documents on Canada Buys, including all eligibility criteria, response instructions, information-session details, certifications, insurance, security, pricing and registration requirements, before taking action or submitting a response.
