AI Contract Overview
The Government of Alberta, through Environment and Protected Areas, is soliciting proposals to develop a comprehensive, basin-wide Water Demand Forecasting Model for the South Saskatchewan River Basin using the GoldSim platform. The model must be a hybrid, modular system capable of simulating and forecasting water demand across multiple sectors including municipal, irrigation, stock watering, industrial, and commercial uses, with the goal of improving water availability planning, especially during droughts and under climate change scenarios. Phase I research confirmed that no single modeling approach could address the basin’s complexity, leading to the adoption of a flexible framework that integrates diverse methodologies tailored to each sector’s unique characteristics. Proposals must incorporate Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence techniques to build, train, and rigorously test at least one predictive model per sector, leveraging available datasets to ensure accuracy and adaptability to evolving conditions. The project is issued under solicitation number AB-2026-04098 with a response deadline of June 18, 2026, and falls under NAICS code 541690. The contracting authority is Amr Gharib, reachable via GoA.WDFM@gov.ab.ca, and work is to be performed within Alberta. The model must align precisely with the Recommended Model Framework outlined in Appendix B, Subsection 3, and deliverables must support operational decision-making and long-term water strategy development by integrating climate projections and other drivers of future water demand. The solution must be scalable, transparent, and capable of updating as new data becomes available, ensuring sustained relevance for water resource management across the South Saskatchewan River Basin.
