Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) - *Canada, Ottawa, Ontario
The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is seeking one contractor to provide a secure, browser- and app-based software-as-a-service portal for its Corporate Secretariat, Board of Management, and possibly other committees. The portal would support up to 40 active users and must allow users to securely upload, store, search, view, print, share, download, edit, and annotate documents. It would serve as a central repository for Board materials and meeting communications. The initial contract period is expected to be one year from award, with options for up to six additional one-year extensions. The CRA may also add, remove, or modify products or services under the contract. This opportunity appears potentially relevant to Canadian software providers, SaaS companies, secure document-management vendors, or firms able to deliver and support a compliant governance or board-portal solution. Security requirements apply, and the solicitation may include mandatory technical, security, and other evaluation criteria. The opportunity is stated to be open only to Canadian suppliers and suppliers from applicable trading partners; the official solicitation should be checked for the precise eligibility rules. The closing date is September 17, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. The listed location is Ottawa, Ontario, although the service is an online portal. Proposals may be submitted in English or French. Bids must be submitted through Canada Post’s Connect service by first contacting the CRA Bid Receiving Unit at [email protected]; bids should not simply be emailed directly to that address. Written questions are directed to [email protected]. Review the complete bid solicitation, including Annex A, mandatory criteria, security requirements, submission instructions, amendments, and pricing rules, before deciding whether to bid. The responsive bid with the lowest evaluated price is expected to be recommended, subject to required pre-award conditions. This summary does not determine whether a business qualifies, and all details must be verified against the official tender documents before submission.
