Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Northwest Territories *Manitoba *Nunavut Territory *Alberta *Saskatchewan, *Canada, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
This appears to be an open Request for Information (RFI) from Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) about Indigenous professional design businesses in Western Canada. PSPC is seeking information about business capabilities and capacity for possible future professional design services related to construction and other service work, particularly in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. The notice also lists the Northwest Territories and Nunavut as locations, so the scope should be confirmed in the official documents. This is for market research and planning only—not a bid solicitation. No contract will be awarded directly through this RFI, and responding is voluntary. PSPC indicates that responding, or not responding, should not affect eligibility for future procurements. The initiative is intended to improve PSPC’s awareness of Indigenous-owned and Indigenous-led businesses and support its federal Indigenous contracting objectives. Responses are requested through the Government of Canada online form: https://forms-formulaires.alpha.canada.ca/en/id/cmoxd4akp001t01ytydmp2xpp. The listed closing date and time are March 31, 2027, at 4:00 p.m. The notice references professional design capabilities, so businesses may wish to prepare information about their services, experience, geographic coverage, Indigenous ownership or leadership, and capacity to support government projects. This is only a potentially relevant market-engagement opportunity; it does not confirm eligibility or guarantee future contracting opportunities. Before responding, verify the deadline, geographic scope, response instructions, and any requirements in the official tender notice and attached PDF: https://canadabuys.canada.ca/sites/default/files/webform/tender_notice/95761/pspc-wr-001-en-fr_0.pdf.
