AI Contract Overview
Health Canada is seeking input from the veterinary and laboratory animal science industry to inform the future procurement of professional services critical to the care and welfare of animals used in scientific research and regulatory testing. The department requires a contractor to deliver comprehensive veterinary care, including routine and emergency clinical services, surgical interventions, and ongoing oversight aligned with the Canadian Council on Animal Care standards and provincial regulations. The scope includes advising on facility biosecurity, nutrition, environmental enrichment, and providing training to staff on humane animal handling, anesthesia, analgesia, and euthanasia procedures. The contractor will also serve as a key advisor to the Institutional Animal Care Committee, help develop and maintain standard operating procedures, submit regular health reports, and ensure 24/7 emergency availability or a validated back-up coverage plan. While this request is purely for information and will not result in a contract, it aims to gauge industry capacity, specialization, and pricing models to shape a future Request for Proposal. Health Canada is particularly interested in whether providers have experience with certified laboratory animal medicine professionals, can meet the demand for both scheduled and emergency services, and can navigate the requirement for Government of Canada security clearances. Respondents are encouraged to comment on potential gaps in the proposed scope, industry best practices, and barriers to participation. All feedback must be submitted by June 30, 2026, and will be used solely to develop a robust and well-informed procurement strategy. No obligation is created by submitting information, and no business relationship will arise from this inquiry.
