Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Canada, Gatineau, Quebec
This appears to be an open Government of Canada request for proposals from PSPC on behalf of the Department of National Defence (DND) and Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). The work involves supporting physical stocktaking and inventory management across more than 1,444 CAF warehouses in Canada. Services may include counting and verifying inventory, validating and correcting data, conducting directed independent asset checks, and supporting other inventory-management procedures. Work would be assigned through Task Authorizations on an as-needed basis. The contractor would provide stocktaking teams to supplement DND’s existing Stocktaking Investigation Groups at bases, wings, stations, and depots. The initial contract period would run from award until March 31, 2030. It may include two optional one-year extensions and a six-month transition period. The tender is open to public bidders, but security requirements apply. The procurement is subject to international trade agreements, the Federal Contractors Program for Employment Equity, and an Indigenous Participation Plan is requested to encourage Indigenous involvement. The description states that the Canadian Labour Conjunction Agreement (CLCA) does not apply. The stated closing deadline is October 1, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. The tender is associated with Gatineau, Quebec, but the operational work appears to be nationwide. This may potentially match businesses with inventory-counting, asset-verification, data-validation, logistics, warehouse, project-management, and security-compliance capabilities, including firms able to deploy teams across Canada. However, the notice does not provide enough information to determine whether any particular business qualifies. Before deciding to bid, review the complete official tender notice and all solicitation documents for mandatory experience, personnel, equipment, security clearances, insurance, response-format requirements, Task Authorization procedures, Indigenous Participation Plan expectations, and any subcontracting or geographic requirements.
