Correctional Service Canada, Ontario Region, is soliciting psychiatric services to provide community mental health care to offenders under a three-year contract running from June 1, 2026, to May 31, 2029, with an estimated value of $730,080 based on 1,440 hours of service at $507 per hour. The requirement is open exclusively to Canadian suppliers and is not subject to any trade agreements, Indigenous business set-asides, or comprehensive land claims. Only one contractor will be awarded to serve the Ontario Region, excluding the National Capital Region, with services delivered on-site at CSC facilities, via telephone consultations, and through on-call support. The contractor must supply a licensed psychiatrist with specialized training and experience in correctional settings, and all proposed individuals must be fluent in English and meet rigorous certification requirements. The evaluation process is strictly technical and merit-based, with award determined solely by the highest cumulative score on criteria including postgraduate training and certification in forensic or complex psychiatric areas (15 points), direct correctional psychiatric experience (10 points), leadership or participation in quality improvement initiatives (10 points), provision of education or training in correctional psychiatry (10 points), and research or publications in relevant clinical domains (10 points). No financial bids are required, and price is not a factor in selection. All personnel must undergo and maintain security clearance through the Contract Security Program, with strict adherence to handling PROTECTED information, prohibition of electronic processing of sensitive data unless exempted, and compliance with the Contract Security Manual and Security Requirements Checklist. The contractor is responsible for submitting monthly invoices manually to the Project Authority, adhering to all federal and provincial privacy laws, CSC policies, and professional standards, and ensuring staff comply with facility rules, TB screenings, and employment equity obligations if the organization employs 100 or more people. The bid must include a completed Reference Form attesting to the proposed psychiatrist’s professional conduct and work ethic, and all submissions must be emailed by the deadline in an unencrypted, non-executable format under 10 MB. The contract includes clauses on compliance with on-site measures, discretionary audit rights with modified audit timelines extended to 120 days, and security protocols that supersede any conflicting general government policies. Failure to meet any certification or security requirement may result in disqualification or contract termination.
