Defence Construction Canada - National Capital Region - Ottawa, Ontario

This appears to be an Advance Procurement Notice from Defence Construction Canada for potential construction, maintenance, modernization, professional services, and housing-related contracts in the National Capital Region, including Ottawa and nearby defence facilities managed by Real Property Operations Group and the Canadian Forces Housing Agency. This notice is not a bid call or request for proposals. It is intended to give contractors and consultants early information about possible future projects and time to assess their capacity, monitor upcoming solicitations, and—where applicable—begin the process of obtaining required security clearances. The potential work may include administrative and operational buildings, secure facilities, training and logistics sites, airfield infrastructure, and Canadian Armed Forces residential housing. Future opportunities may be issued through open tenders or RFPs on MERX and Canada Buys, the Open Construction Source List, source lists, standing offers, or other procurement tools. Some construction opportunities may be available only by invitation to members of the relevant source list. The notice specifically references the Open Construction Source List for Ottawa/Gatineau (OCSL No. CR26SLWA_86073), which is reportedly open on MERX and requires a MERX account to apply. Some projects may require security clearances, and certain opportunities may be reserved for Indigenous businesses under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business. The project list and anticipated dates are contained in a document available through MERX, but projects depend on receiving approval to proceed. There is no guarantee that any listed project will be tendered, that a contract will be awarded, or that security clearances will be granted within the anticipated timelines. The notice is marked open and shows a closing date of March 31, 2029 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time. Interested businesses may wish to review the MERX attachment, assess relevant construction or consulting capabilities, investigate source-list requirements, and determine whether security sponsorship or clearance steps may be appropriate. These details should not be treated as confirmation that a business qualifies or that work is available. Verify the complete official notice, attachments, project list, eligibility conditions, security requirements, deadlines, and any amendments directly through MERX before taking action or submitting anything.

Public Works and Government Services Canada - *Manitoba *Ontario (except NCR) *Saskatchewan *National Capital Region (NCR) *Northwest Territories *British Columbia *Yukon *Nunavut Territory *Newfoundland and Labrador *Prince Edward Island *Alberta *Nova Scotia *Quebec (except NCR) *New Brunswick, Gatineau, Quebec

**Tender:** Furniture for Work Spaces (RFSA E60PQ-140003/C) **Buyer:** Public Works and Government Services Canada **Status shown:** Open **Closing date shown:** April 23, 2029 at 2:00 p.m. **Coverage:** Potential deliveries or supply arrangements across most Canadian provinces and territories, including Manitoba, Ontario outside the NCR, Saskatchewan, the NCR, British Columbia, Alberta, Quebec outside the NCR, Atlantic Canada, the territories, and Gatineau, Quebec. This opportunity appears to concern suppliers of workplace furniture. It is structured as a **Request for Supply Arrangement**, meaning suppliers may be evaluated and, if accepted under the arrangement, may later be invited to provide products through related purchases. The notice states that all interested suppliers may submit a bid and that selection is based on the **best overall proposal**. The tender record contains numerous amendments and product catalogue, pricing, technical specification, annex, and question-and-answer documents. A historical amendment refers to a requirement for products to be independently certified to the ANSI/BIFMA e3 Furniture Sustainability Standard at a minimum Level 2 by October 31, 2019; however, because the record includes later amendments and a current-looking closing date, this requirement and all other specifications must be confirmed in the latest official documents. The listing also contains an older amendment saying submissions were temporarily closed, followed by a later amendment stating that submissions were being reopened. A furniture manufacturer, distributor, or workplace-furnishing supplier may find this opportunity potentially relevant, particularly if it can meet the catalogue, pricing, technical, delivery, certification, and administrative requirements for the applicable regions. The information provided does not establish whether any particular business qualifies. **Before preparing a bid:** Review the latest Canada Buys notice and all amendments, identify the currently applicable product catalogue and pricing template, confirm the actual submission deadline and submission method, and check every mandatory requirement. The official source URL was not provided here, so use the Canada Buys tender record and its attached documents as the authoritative sources.

A supplier would need to meet the stated technical requirements and be able to provide all required cab-chassis and body configurations. The notice also encourages an Indigenous Participation Plan at the RFP stage. The tender is listed as open and closes May 31, 2029, at 2:00 p.m. It is associated with Gatineau, Quebec, and may be relevant to Canadian businesses that can manufacture, supply, integrate, or support specialized heavy vehicles and meet the full technical scope.

Review the complete official tender documents for mandatory specifications, supplier eligibility requirements, submission instructions, certifications, Indigenous participation requirements, and any applicable vehicle or body configuration details before deciding whether to submit a response.Official source: https://discovery.ariba.com/rfx/19711090?extsite=MTk3MTEwOTBfQU4wMTQ4NDA1MDk5Mg==

Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) - *Canada, Ottawa, Ontario

DFO’s Canadian Hydrographic Service is seeking pre-qualified suppliers for on-demand hydrographic and bathymetric services through a Supply Arrangement.

Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Ontario (except NCR), Gatineau, Quebec

This open PSPC opportunity appears to seek suppliers that can rent out heavy construction equipment, without operators, to federal departments in Ontario outside the National Capital Region.

Services may include providing role players, make-up artists, special-effects specialists, and pyrotechnicians to create realistic training scenarios for operational and medical skills.

The notice states that all required bid documents must be submitted by December 31, 2029, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. It also says to disregard different deadlines shown in Ariba Discovery or Canada Buys.
