PARTICIPATION IN KINETIC-2026

The IWK Health Centre is announcing its intent to participate in procurements managed by Kinetic between April 1, 2026, and March 31, 2027, under solicitation number IWK-NOTICE-2026-KINETIC. This notice serves as an invitation for potential suppliers to prepare for upcoming tender opportunities, with no cost or payment required to access documentation. While tender notices posted on CanadaBuys may not include amendments, all updated documents, including addenda, must be reviewed via the Nova Scotia Procurement Portal, where third-party platform registration or fees may be necessary to access materials or submit responses. The contract period aligns with the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, and response submissions must be completed by the deadline of March 31, 2027, at 6:00 p.m. Atlantic Time. The contracting authority for this initiative is Annette Glass, who can be reached at annette.glass@iwk.nshealth.ca, and the notice is published under the Government of Canada’s organizational structure, though the procurement activities are directed toward services or supplies for the IWK Health Centre. The solicitation does not specify a Naics code or set-aside criteria, and while the place of performance is not defined in the data, the procurement is targeted at Nova Scotia public sector needs. Suppliers are advised to monitor the designated portal for evolving requirements and ensure compliance with submission processes specific to the Kinetic-managed procurement cycle.
