This notice appears to be an information session—not a contract opportunity or bid solicitation—for suppliers interested in future Environmental Response Equipment (EREP) procurements by Public Services and Procurement Canada, in cooperation with the Canadian Coast Guard. The session was intended to explain how to prepare responses to future requests for proposals, discuss the procurement process and phased bid-compliance approach, answer supplier questions, and provide information about upcoming marine environmental-response equipment opportunities. Participation was voluntary and was not a prerequisite for bidding on any later procurement. No contract would result from participating, and participation costs would not be reimbursed. The listed Industry Day took place on September 19, 2018, with registration required by September 14, 2018. The notice also lists amendments containing the agenda, presentation materials, and answers to questions. Although the database shows an open status and a 2040 closing date, these details appear inconsistent with the historical event dates and should be treated cautiously. This may be relevant to a Canadian business that supplies marine environmental-response equipment or related products and wants background on potential government procurement processes. It does not itself provide an opportunity to submit a bid. Review the official Canada Buys notice and attached documents to confirm the notice’s current status, any follow-on procurements, and applicable requirements before taking action.

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

Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is seeking suppliers for a Supply Arrangement covering professional services related to airborne topographic LiDAR. The work may include acquiring LiDAR data, classifying it, inspecting the classification, and—under one work category—acquiring aerial orthophotography to support the LiDAR work. This is not necessarily a single immediate project award. It is a qualification process intended to create or expand a pool of pre-qualified suppliers that NRCan may later invite to bid on specific requirements. Suppliers may be able to qualify for up to four work categories, subject to the detailed Statement of Work, mandatory requirements, certifications, and evaluation criteria in the official documents. The notice indicates that this version allows new suppliers to become qualified. Suppliers already issued an arrangement under the earlier versions of RFSA NRCan-5000045352 do not appear to need to submit a new arrangement. The listed location is Canada, with Quebec identified, but the precise geographic scope should be confirmed in the official notice. The tender is shown as open with a closing date of March 31, 2040 at 1:00 a.m. This unusually distant date may reflect an arrangement term or posting-data issue, so the current deadline and submission instructions should be verified directly on Canada Buys before relying on them. This opportunity potentially matches Canadian businesses with relevant airborne LiDAR acquisition, geospatial data processing/classification, quality-control or inspection, aerial surveying, and orthophotography capabilities. The information provided is not enough to determine whether a particular business qualifies. Review the complete RFSA, amendments, questions and answers, Statement of Work, work-category requirements, security or certification provisions, and submission process in the official Canada Buys documents before preparing or submitting a response. Bid Maple is not affiliated with the Government of Canada.

Department of Natural Resources (NRCan) - *Canada, Ottawa, ON

NRCan is seeking suppliers for a Request for Supply Arrangement (RFSA) covering client facilitation services. The work appears focused on helping organizations plan, develop, and implement major energy-efficiency and greenhouse-gas-reduction initiatives, including energy management, measurement and verification, renewable energy, and energy-performance contracts that support federal sustainability targets. This is not necessarily a contract for immediate work. It is an opportunity for companies to become qualified under a supply arrangement and potentially compete for future requirements. Suppliers already pre-qualified under the previous RFSA NRCan-5000075549 generally are not required to submit a new arrangement, according to the notice. The notice states that Canadian suppliers and certain suppliers from trading or non-trading partner countries may be eligible to apply, subject to applicable rules, sanctions, and restrictions at the individual bid stage. This does not confirm that any particular business qualifies. The arrangement has no stated end date and may remain in place until Canada no longer considers it advantageous. The listed closing date is March 31, 2040, at 2:00 p.m.; this unusually distant date should be confirmed in the official tender documents. To submit documents, a supplier must email [email protected] to request that a CPC Connect conversation be opened. Documents can then be submitted through that conversation. Review the complete official RFSA notice and PDF before proceeding, including qualification requirements, mandatory forms, security or experience requirements, submission instructions, and any applicable supplier restrictions.Official document: https://canadabuys.canada.ca/sites/default/files/webform/tender_notice/105305/rfsa-nrcan-5000075549-b-%28166933.pdf

##Tender summary: Electric buses Public Works and Government Services Canada is seeking suppliers for an ongoing **Supply Arrangement** covering electric buses. The opportunity appears relevant to manufacturers, distributors, or other suppliers able to provide electric buses meeting the government’s specifications. ### Product groups Suppliers may apply for one, two, or all three groups: - **Group 1:** Electric shuttle buses - **Group 2:** Electric school buses - **Group 3:** Electric commuter coach buses The buses may be delivered to destinations across Canada, including multiple provinces and territories.

Existing qualified suppliers may also have opportunities to qualify additional products. ### Key details - **Buyer:** Public Works and Government Services Canada - **Status:** Open / ongoing opportunity for qualification - **Listed closing date:** April 16, 2046 at 3:00 p.m. — confirm this date in the official notice, as long-dated or amended tender dates should be checked carefully - **Reference:** E60HP-21EBUS/A - **Amendment noted:** RFSA Amendment 007, which modifies the Supply Arrangement Authority - **Procurement method:** Subsequent or follow-on contracts from pre-qualified suppliers - **Submission:** Electronic submission through epost Connect is encouraged ### What to review before responding The attached official documents contain the detailed technical specifications, qualification requirements, submission instructions, and amendment terms. Review them carefully to determine whether your products and capabilities potentially match one or more bus groups. This summary is not an indication that your business qualifies. Verify the current official tender notice, all amendments, mandatory requirements, deadlines, and submission procedures with Canada Buys/PWGSC before submitting an arrangement.

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

This appears to be an open PSPC opportunity to create a list of pre-qualified contractors for heavy construction equipment rentals with operators at various CFB Halifax locations. Potential work may include supplying and operating heavy equipment, removing and disposing of contaminated soil, providing backfill materials, carrying out minor asphalt and concrete repairs, and site cleanup. A security clearance requirement is identified, so contractors may need to meet specific personnel and company security requirements before performing the work. The notice lists Nova Scotia and Gatineau, Quebec, while the title refers to CFB Halifax and the province field shows Quebec; these location details should be confirmed. The stated closing date is July 6, 2050, which also appears unusual and should be verified. Review the official solicitation for equipment specifications, operator qualifications, environmental and disposal requirements, security clearance details, pricing, geographic coverage, and submission instructions before deciding whether to bid. Bid Maple is not affiliated with the Government of Canada, and the official tender notice should control all bidding decisions: https://discovery.ariba.com/rfx/23338981?extsite=Mj Mz Mzg5ODFfQU4wMTQ4NDA1MDk5Mg==

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

This open tender appears to be establishing a supply arrangement for contractors that may later be invited to provide grass cutting and minor groundskeeping services at various Canadian Forces Base Halifax sites in Nova Scotia. Work could include supplying all required labour, materials, tools, equipment, transportation, and supervision for mowing, trimming, and cleaning grass and weeds. The opportunity may be relevant to Canadian landscaping or grounds-maintenance businesses with the capacity to work across CFB Halifax locations. However, inclusion in a supply arrangement would not necessarily guarantee work; future requirements may be competed among qualified suppliers. The listing contains location information referring to both Nova Scotia and Gatineau, Quebec, while the description focuses on CFB Halifax. The displayed closing date is September 30, 2050, which may require confirmation. Businesses should review the complete official tender notice and all related documents for eligibility requirements, insurance, safety obligations, service standards, submission instructions, security or site-access requirements, and the actual deadline before deciding whether to bid. Questions are listed for Richard Parsons at [email protected] source: https://discovery.ariba.com/rfx/21074276?extsite=Mj Ew Nz Qy Nz ZfQU4wMTQ4NDA1MDk5Mg==

Shared Services Canada - *Canada, Ottawa, Ontario

Shared Services Canada (SSC) is seeking Internet Service Providers (ISPs) for a national Local Internet Access Services (LIAS) Supply Arrangement. This is a pre-qualification process—not a request for pricing on a specific contract. Suppliers that demonstrate the required experience and capacity may be added to a list of qualified providers for future, separate LIAS competitions across Canada. Potential services could include establishing new internet connections, managing or recompeting existing connections, and supporting federal government sites on an as-requested basis. The arrangement may be used by SSC, partner organizations, mandatory clients, and other government organizations that choose SSC procurement services. Being issued a Supply Arrangement would not guarantee any future work or contract awards. Businesses should review the solicitation documents carefully to confirm the technical, operational, experience, service-area, security, insurance, and other requirements that may apply. Responses must be submitted through SSC’s Procure to Pay (P2P) portal, and suppliers must register and log in before responding: https://sscp2pspc.ssc-spc.gc.ca. The supplied closing date is April 27, 2065 at 7:00 a.m., which appears unusual and should be verified in the official notice and any amendments. Review all linked documents, including Amendment 000, and confirm the current deadline, submission instructions, and eligibility requirements directly with SSC before submitting. Bid Maple is not affiliated with the Government of Canada.

Shared Services Canada - *Canada, Ottawa, Ontario

This opportunity appears to be a Shared Services Canada request for a Supply Arrangement for Local Internet Access Services (LIAS) across federal sites in Canada. It is aimed at Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that want to pre-qualify to compete for future LIAS work, including new connections, renewals, and management of existing connections. The notice says it is not a direct bid for a single contract, but a prequalification process for suppliers that meet the required experience and capacity. The work is national in scope, with Ottawa listed as the location, and suppliers must use SSC’s Procure to Pay (P2P) portal to respond. Since this is a procurement process with detailed qualification criteria and amendments, it would be important to review the official documents carefully and verify the submission requirements, deadlines, and technical criteria before deciding whether to respond.

Shared Services Canada - *Canada, Ottawa, Ontario

Shared Services Canada is seeking Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to prequalify for Local Internet Access Services across Canada, including federal government sites in Ottawa and other locations. The opportunity is a Request for Supply Arrangement (RFSA), not a request for an immediate project bid. Suppliers that meet SSC’s experience, technical, and capacity requirements may be issued a Supply Arrangement and could later compete for specific internet-access service requirements. The arrangement may cover new connections, replacement or renewal of existing connections, and services for SSC, partner organizations, mandatory clients, and other government organizations using SSC procurement services. Being accepted into the arrangement would not guarantee any contracts or future work. The notice identifies Solicitation No. BPM016120, related to initial solicitation BPM014160, and indicates an ongoing qualification process. Suppliers must register and be logged into SSC’s Procure to Pay (P2P)portal to submit a response: https://sscp2pspc.ssc-spc.gc.ca. The provided notice also references an amendment and related documents. This opportunity appears relevant to Canadian ISPs with the required nationwide or applicable service coverage, government-contracting capability, and documented experience. However, the information provided does not establish whether any particular business qualifies. Review the complete RFSA, amendment documents, submission instructions, mandatory requirements, service areas, insurance/security provisions, and deadlines in the official SSC notice before proceeding. The listed closing date of April 27, 2065 should be confirmed against the current official notice, particularly because the description also references an April 27, 2022 notification period.

Parks Canada - *World, Rocky Harbour, Newfoundland

Parks Canada appears to be seeking qualified accessibility-assessment consulting firms for a national supply arrangement. Selected firms could potentially receive future assignments to assess the accessibility of Parks Canada facilities, services, and programs in different regions of Canada. Individual resulting contracts are described as typically ranging from $1,000 to a maximum of $500,000, including applicable taxes. This is a qualification-based supply arrangement rather than a single project. It has no defined end date and may remain in place while Parks Canada considers it useful. There is no stated security requirement. Work must comply with applicable National Park legislation, regulations, and rules. Submissions may be made in English or French. The notice says this opportunity was previously posted elsewhere, cancelled, and moved to Canada Buys. The listed closing date of November 22, 2099 may be a system or data issue, so the actual deadline and current status should be confirmed in the official tender documents and Canada Buys notice. If bidding is still permitted, responses must be emailed only to [email protected], as attachments—not links—and must not exceed 15 MB. In-person, fax, courier, or submissions sent to other email addresses will not be accepted. An accessibility consulting firm with relevant assessment experience may find this potentially relevant, but the qualification requirements, evaluation criteria, regional coverage, pricing, and submission instructions must be reviewed in the official RFSA documents. Verify all details, addenda, the deadline, and whether the arrangement remains open before preparing or submitting a response.

Parks Canada - *British Columbia *Alberta, *Canada, Gatineau, Quebec

The work may include extracting seeds from cones, separating seed material using air, stratifying seeds, propagating them, growing seedlings for approximately two years, and delivering mature seedlings for fall planting in mountain parks in Alberta and British Columbia. The arrangement has no fixed end date and may remain in place while Parks Canada considers it useful. New suppliers can apply on an ongoing basis, with evaluations potentially conducted quarterly. The listed quarterly submission dates are March 30, June 30, September 30, and December 30 at 2:00 p.m. Mountain Time. The tender record shows a closing date of March 31, 2100, which may be a system placeholder rather than a practical deadline; this should be confirmed in the official notice. Responses must be submitted by email to [email protected] or by fax to 1-866-246-6893. Email submissions must be attachments, not links, and the total email size must not exceed 15 MB.

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.
