Mid Life Renovations – St. Pierre-Jolys, Manitoba

This project involves a comprehensive interior renovation of a government-owned building in St. Pierre-Jolys, Manitoba, under the authority of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The scope includes selective demolition of interior elements such as doors, partitions, millwork, glazing, acoustical panels, HVAC systems, electrical fixtures, and plumbing, followed by the installation of new masonry walls, structural partitions, detention doors, architectural woodwork, epoxy flooring, wall bases, paint, elastomeric coatings, ceilings, and acoustical panels. The work also requires revisions and upgrades to existing mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems to align with the new building configuration. All work must be performed in English, as specified in the original sealed drawings and technical documentation. The contract is structured as a two-phase selection process, with Phase One evaluating only the bidder’s qualifications and experience, requiring submission of mandatory documents including the Phase One Qualification Form, Reciprocal Procurement Declaration, proof of incorporation, and completed solicitation front page—all submitted in PDF format via email to the designated government address. Only qualified bidders will proceed to Phase Two, where financial bids are submitted and award will be made to the responsive bidder offering the lowest price. The contract imposes strict security, insurance, health and safety, and Indigenous participation requirements. All personnel must hold RCMP Enhanced Reliability Status and Facility Access Level 2 with escort clearance, with no removal or copying of PROTECTED, DESIGNATED, or CLASSIFIED materials permitted at the site. Contractors must carry mandatory insurance including Pollution Liability coverage of at least $1,000,000 per incident and aggregate, issued by a Canadian-licensed insurer, and must provide a Certificate of Insurance, Performance Bond, and Labour and Material Payment Bond as stipulated in annexes. Compliance with the Occupational Health and Safety Act is mandatory, and a WCB and Safety Program must be submitted prior to award. A mandatory Indigenous Participation Plan is required, with bidders expected to provide certification of Indigenous business status and submit supporting documentation for audit. The work must be completed by March 31, 2027, and the entire procurement process is governed by the Standard Acquisition Clauses and Conditions Manual, interpreted under RCMP authority rather than PWGSC. Bids must be submitted by June 5, 2026, at 4:00 PM, and remain valid for sixty days after the closing date, with all inquiries required seven working days in advance. Failure to meet any mandatory qualification requirements results in immediate dis
