2026-PS-01 Feasibility Study and Concept Design - New Fire Hall

The Town of Ladysmith is inviting qualified consulting teams to submit proposals for a Feasibility Study and Concept Design for a new Fire Hall, as outlined in solicitation number BC228688. The project requires a detailed analysis of operational needs and spatial requirements, evaluation of potential site options, development of multiple concept designs, and the preparation of reliable cost and timeline estimates. The selected team will also be responsible for recommending a viable implementation strategy that aligns with the town’s long-term goals and community needs. Proposals must demonstrate relevant experience in public infrastructure projects, particularly in emergency services facilities, and must be submitted by the deadline of May 27, 2026, at 9:30 PM EDT. All submissions must comply with the Town’s requirements and expectations for technical rigor, professionalism, and deliverable quality. Robyn McAdam serves as the primary point of contact for the solicitation and can be reached at rmcadam@ladysmith.ca for inquiries. Although the solicitation is posted on the Canada Buys portal and references the Government of Canada in its organizational details, the contracting authority is the Town of Ladysmith, a municipal government. The project does not specify a set-aside designation or NAICS code, and the place of performance is understood to be within Ladysmith, British Columbia. The contract will support the town’s infrastructure planning efforts by ensuring the new Fire Hall is functionally efficient, financially feasible, and strategically located to enhance emergency response capabilities.
