Architectural and Engineering Design Services

The contract entails comprehensive architectural design services for the development of a 3,000 square meter secure diplomatic chancery building in Ethiopia, requiring full design delivery from schematic design through to construction documentation. The scope demands strict adherence to both Canadian and Ethiopian regulatory, safety, and architectural standards, ensuring the facility meets international diplomatic security requirements while integrating local environmental and structural considerations. The work will be executed under a subcontract arrangement, governed by the procurement framework of the Government of Canada’s Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development, with performance centered entirely within Ethiopia. The solicitation is open for submissions until August 26, 2026, and is classified under NAICS code 541310 for architectural services. While no set-aside provisions are in place, the project reflects Canada’s commitment to establishing secure, compliant, and functional diplomatic infrastructure abroad. All deliverables must align with the technical and procedural expectations of a high-security government facility, with the final documentation serving as the authoritative basis for subsequent construction activities under Canadian oversight.
