Consultant Services for Water Plant Optimization at Drury Creek Grader Station

The Government of Yukon, through the Department of Highways and Public Works, is soliciting bids for professional consultant services to optimize the water plant at the Drury Creek Grader Station. This project, identified as RFB-2026-9-5577, is a second-stage procurement limited to bidders previously pre-qualified under RFQ-2022-2-1403. The scope of work involves completing a 65 percent design package for plumbing optimization, installing a new chlorine injection system with a dedicated skid, and implementing remote monitoring capabilities, including PLC alarms and Starlink installation revisions. The services are structured into three phases: Review and Design, Tender and Construction Administration, and Warranty Administration, with a final warranty walk-through report due approximately 11 months after substantial completion. The contract is based on the CCDC 2-2020 Stipulated Price Contract, modified by Supplementary General Conditions. Award selection is primarily based on the lowest total price, though bid value reductions may be applied for Yukon First Nation business ownership, location, or labor. Successful bidders must provide performance and labor/material payment bonds equal to at least 50 percent of the contract price. Technical execution must adhere to the Government of Yukon Design Requirements and Technical Standards Manual, which includes specific color-coding for piping and electrical systems and ADA compliance for hardware. Payments are processed monthly with a 30-day term, and the project is located at 29254 Robert Campbell Highway.
