Consulting Services - Climate Risk Assessment & Resilience Plan

The Municipality of Colchester is inviting qualified consulting firms to provide professional services for a comprehensive Climate Risk Assessment across the entire community, with the ultimate goal of developing a detailed Climate Resilience Plan to guide future adaptation and mitigation efforts. The project requires detailed analysis of climate-related hazards, vulnerabilities, and potential impacts on infrastructure, natural systems, and public services, followed by the creation of actionable strategies to enhance community resilience. The solicitation, identified as MCC-2605-CD02, was posted on May 8, 2026, with responses due by June 5, 2026, and is managed by Contracting Authority Pam Macintosh, who can be reached via email or phone for inquiries. The contract is part of a public procurement process managed through the Nova Scotia Procurement Portal, where the most current tender documents and any addenda must be accessed, as updates may not be reflected on CanadaBuys. While the cost of acquiring documents is not applicable, potential bidders should be aware that third-party platforms may require registration or fees to view materials or submit proposals. The municipality expects the consultant to deliver technically sound, community-informed recommendations that align with local priorities and broader climate goals, though specific contract duration details are included only in the referenced tender documents.
