This requirement is issued under PWGSC Supply Arrangement E60PQ-120001/H and is open only to pre-qualified suppliers holding an active Supply Arrangement within the General Stream.

The chairs must be shipped fully assembled with labeling and instructions, and the contractor is responsible for unloading, transporting, storing, and unpacking the goods at the installation site to inspect for shipping damage. Warranty terms specify a 10-year coverage for the chair structure with a 5-year warranty on user-adjustable components, and contractors must certify that the products are free from forced labor as defined under the Customs Tariff Act. Compliance with all specifications, including finish selection submitted by the Project Authority within ten business days of award, is mandatory. The contract will be awarded on the basis of the lowest evaluated price submitted in Canadian dollars, excluding applicable taxes but including customs duties and excise taxes under DDP Incoterms® rules. Bids must be submitted electronically by July 2, 2026, at 1300 ADT to PDIV.BidReceivingUnit@forces.gc.ca and must include technical and financial sections with pricing strictly limited to the financial portion.
