Department of Public Works and Government Services (PSPC) - *Ontario (except NCR), Gatineau, Quebec
This open tender appears to be for pesticide and pest-control application services on federally owned agricultural lands at Joyceville Institution and Collins Bay Institution in Kingston, Ontario. The contractor would potentially provide the labour, materials, tools, equipment, and transportation needed to control plants, fungi, insects, mites, and nematodes when required. The opportunity is being managed by Public Works and Government Services Canada for Correctional Service of Canada (CSC CORCAN). The notice says contracts under the supply arrangement may be awarded from the date of award through August 31, 2028. The notice is expected to remain posted until August 31, 2027, allowing new suppliers to become qualified. Suppliers that already hold the relevant supply arrangement may not need to submit a new arrangement. The listed closing date is August 31, 2027 at 10:00 a.m., but the notice specifically says to disregard certain Ariba Discovery and Canada Buys response deadlines. The tender data also lists Quebec in one field, while the described work is in Kingston, Ontario, so the official notice should be checked carefully for the applicable geographic scope, qualification requirements, pesticide licensing or regulatory requirements, insurance, equipment standards, response process, and the authoritative deadline. This opportunity potentially matches Canadian businesses experienced in agricultural or institutional pesticide application and related pest-management work. The business should review the complete official tender and supply-arrangement documents before deciding whether to respond.Official source: https://portal.us.bn.cloud.ariba.com/dashboard/public/appext/comsapsbncdiscoveryui#/Rfx Event/preview/17438782?an Id=ANONYMOUS
