The contract issued by Elections Canada, under solicitation number ECGZ-RFP-2026-4017, calls for the production and delivery of 200,000 large all-purpose gusseted envelopes. These envelopes must meet strict material and design specifications, including construction from natural 32 lb FSC-certified kraft paper, a 1.5-inch four-sided gusset, and black single-color printing with the FSC logo in the bottom left corner. The envelopes are to be resealable with latex glue closure. Packaging requirements specify shipment in corrugated boxes not exceeding 35 pounds each, arranged on non-returnable "brewery type" pallets measuring 48” by 42” with a maximum stacking height of 54 inches, compatible with handheld hydraulic pallet jacks. Each box must be clearly labeled with precise text, and any deviations from packaging and labeling instructions may result in shipment rejection at the destination. The contract term runs from its effective date until March 31, 2027, with Elections Canada holding an irrevocable option to extend the contract for one or more additional two-year periods under the same terms and conditions. Delivery of the full quantity is required by July 10, 2026, with partial deliveries allowed only upon prior approval.

The contract includes no security requirements, and eligibility is restricted to Canadian suppliers, suppliers from applicable trading partners, and suppliers from non-trading partners as defined. Proposals must be submitted by February 27, 2026, via Canada Post’s Connect service, mail, or in-person delivery; email and fax submissions are not permitted. Invoicing is electronic via email with strict requirements, including valid tax registration numbers.
