Bids must be submitted electronically by 1200 hrs ADT on May 28, 2026, to [email hidden], with no fax or physical submissions accepted. The contract follows a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable model, where only responsive bids meeting all technical requirements will be considered, and the lowest-priced compliant offer will be selected for award.

Delivery and installation must be completed within six to ten weeks, with a preferred delivery target of June 30, 2026, at designated locations including Building S-89 at CFB Stadacona.
