City of Lethbridge - Request for Proposal - Emergency Snow Removal Services

The City of Lethbridge is seeking to pre-qualify companies capable of providing emergency snow removal services during extreme weather events when internal and external resources are insufficient to maintain required service levels. This solicitation, identified as AB-2026-05542, invites qualified vendors to submit proposals by the deadline of September 16, 2026, to be considered for inclusion on a list of pre-approved responders. The goal is to ensure rapid deployment of additional equipment and personnel to safeguard public safety, maintain critical infrastructure access, and uphold municipal operations during severe winter conditions. Eligible contractors must demonstrate proven capability, appropriate equipment, available staffing, and experience in municipal snow removal under high-pressure scenarios. Responses must align with the City’s operational needs and performance expectations, including timely mobilization, adherence to service standards, and compliance with local regulations. The contract does not guarantee work but establishes a pool of vetted vendors the City can call upon as needed during declared emergency events. Proposals will be evaluated based on factors such as capacity, reliability, geographic availability, and historical performance. All inquiries should be directed to Nicki Van Eck, the designated buyer, via the provided contact information. Interested parties are encouraged to review the full solicitation on the Alberta Purchasing website to understand requirements, evaluation criteria, and submission protocols.
