Notice of Interest - Real Property Lease

The Department of National Defence is seeking commercial office space in the Vaudreuil-Dorion region of Quebec to establish recruitment offices for the Grenadier Guards, issuing a Notice of Interest as a preliminary market survey to identify qualified landlords. The required space must total between 139 and 309 square metres, comprised of 120 to 245 square metres of commercial office, classroom, and conference space, along with 19 to 63 square metres designated for rest, meal, and washroom use, all located on the ground floor, heated, and with a minimum ceiling height of three metres. Access to a washroom is mandatory, and the total leasable area includes internal circulation and structural elements as part of the gross area calculation. All proposed properties must fall within the geographic boundaries defined in an attached map, and only those meeting all specified criteria will be considered for further engagement. Interested parties must submit a letter of interest via email or mail by July 1, 2026, to Adam Dahan, including the site address, representative name, and contact number. The government reserves the right to conduct site visits to validate compliance and will extend invitations for formal offers exclusively to eligible respondents. The intended occupancy date is August 31, 2026, with an initial lease term of one year and an option for a single one-year renewal. No pricing, contract value, or formal evaluation weights are disclosed at this stage, and the notice does not obligate the government to award a contract. The solicitation is conducted under NAICS code 531120 as a sources-sought action with no formal contract clauses or detailed instructions beyond the basic submission requirements.
