This contract solicitation, identified as RFP 2026-01, is issued by Parc Downsview Park Inc. on behalf of the Government of Canada to procure full-service janitorial services at Downsview Park in Toronto, Ontario.

Unit #1, 60 Carl Hill Rd. Unit #3, 75 Carl Hall Rd. Security Office, 75 Carl Hill Rd. Unit #15, and other designated locations. The contract term is three years, commencing on the Effective Date and ending on October 31, 2028, with the Government of Canada holding the exclusive right to extend the contract for two additional one-year periods, provided written notice is given at least three months prior to each expiration. The contractor must implement a Building-Specific Green Cleaning Plan, utilize Health Canada-approved disinfectants with a valid DIN#, and adhere to a Power Equipment Use/Maintenance Plan that reduces building contaminants, while excluding washroom paper, air freshener, soap, hand sanitizer, and waste bags from their supply obligations. All pricing must be submitted in Canadian funds and include applicable customs duties, with a mandatory Pricing Schedule (Schedule 10) requiring detailed line-item costs for annual services and additional services outside regular hours.

Attendance at the mandatory site visit is required for eligibility, and failure to attend results in disqualification. The evaluation process is structured in multiple stages, with mandatory pass/fail gates for compliance with key requirements, including submission of all twelve required schedules such as the Declaration Schedule, Diversity & Inclusion Schedule, and Personnel Experience Schedule.
