Marine Box Coolers

The Halifax Regional Municipality is soliciting quotations for the supply and delivery of four new, unused marine box coolers to support maintenance and lifecycle replacement for Halifax Transit Ferry Operations. The requirement consists of two WEKA box coolers (part number 6P6-1000 H2909-D01) and two WEKA box coolers (part number 4P2-750 H3361-D02).

Award decisions will be based on best value, with evaluation factors including total cost, Canadian content, past performance, proposed completion dates, and extended warranty commitments. Mandatory requirements include being registered and in good standing with the Workers Compensation Board of Nova Scotia. Pricing must be quoted in Canadian Funds as Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) Destination. The successful supplier must adhere to the Halifax Supplier Code of Conduct, covering standards for labor, equity, and environmental stewardship. Contract administration includes a 30-day payment term for undisputed invoices processed electronically. Upon delivery, the municipality has a 90-day inspection period to verify that goods meet specifications and are free of defects before final acceptance.
