Defence Construction Canada - National Capital Region - Ottawa, Ontario

This appears to be an Advance Procurement Notice from Defence Construction Canada for major NORAD-related infrastructure at Forward Operating Locations in Inuvik and Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. It is not currently a bid solicitation, so businesses cannot submit a bid based on this notice alone. The potential work may include airfield upgrades; hangars, aprons and taxiways; ammunition and fuel facilities; accommodations; warehousing; offices; a fire hall; multipurpose buildings; indoor storage; and IT, cyber and logistics infrastructure. The projects are expected to use large, multi-year Modified Design-Build contracts—one for each site—with estimated values that may exceed $5 billion per location, subject to change and government approval. The anticipated procurement would likely favour large, experienced design-build teams or consortia with demonstrated northern design and construction experience, experience with similar facilities, and the ability to integrate design and construction. Evaluation may also consider logistics, climate and constructability planning, key personnel, Indigenous participation, and an interview process. Successful proponents are expected to develop an Indigenous Benefits Plan covering potential subcontracting, employment and training opportunities. Security clearances are expected to be required before contract award. This advance notice is intended partly to give interested design-builders time to begin the security-clearance sponsorship process, but there is no guarantee that the procurement will proceed or that clearances will be granted in time. The Inuvik solicitation is projected for release in fall 2026, and the Yellowknife solicitation in summer 2027, conditional on approval to proceed. The notice lists a closing date of November 30, 2026, at 2:00 p.m.; confirm what that date applies to because this notice states that it is not a bid call. Smaller or specialized Canadian businesses may potentially find opportunities as subcontractors, suppliers, Indigenous partners, or members of a larger design-build team, but the notice does not establish eligibility or guarantee subcontracting opportunities. Review the complete official notice and any later RFP documents at the Government tender source before taking action. Confirm the security requirements, procurement schedule, scope, qualification criteria, Indigenous participation obligations, submission instructions, and whether the anticipated contracts proceed.
