DITA 1.3-Compliant Component Content Management System (CCMS) Implementation

The contract involves the deployment and configuration of a DITA 1.3-compliant Component Content Management System (CCMS) integrated with Oxygen XML Editor to manage the Canadian National Model Construction Codes. The solution must support robust version control and conditional publishing capabilities to enable dynamic content delivery based on user needs, jurisdictional requirements, and regulatory contexts. The system will be designed to ensure consistent, accurate, and efficient authoring, updating, and distribution of complex technical code content across multiple stakeholders and regions within Canada. The project is structured as a subcontract under the National Research Council of Canada, part of the Government of Canada, with a response deadline of August 12, 2026, and a posted date of July 28, 2026. The place of performance is Ottawa, and the NAICS code 511210 identifies the work as software publishing, emphasizing that the deliverable is a purpose-built content management application rather than off-the-shelf software. The implementation must fully adhere to DITA 1.3 standards to ensure interoperability, scalability, and future-proofing of the content architecture, with a focus on enabling maintainable, reusable, and modular code documentation tailored to the evolving needs of Canadian construction regulation.
