AI Contract Overview
The Correctional Service of Canada, Pacific Region, is seeking contractors to provide comprehensive heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC-R) preventative maintenance and repair services across nine federal correctional institutions in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. The work is divided into three distinct geographic clusters—Matsqui, Agassiz, and Mission—with the possibility of awarding up to three separate five-year contracts, running from June 1, 2026, to May 31, 2031. Services include scheduled annual and semi-annual preventative maintenance, emergency and non-emergency repairs, minor component replacements, and leak detection for a variety of systems including split units, rooftop packages, chillers, and refrigeration units, some of which support critical infrastructure such as IT servers and security systems. All work must be performed during regular business hours on-site, with strict compliance to institutional security protocols, including mandatory escorting of personnel and adherence to CSC’s safety and access policies. Contractors must hold a valid Class REF refrigeration license, trade licenses for refrigeration and air conditioning mechanics, and an Environmental Awareness Certificate, as failure to meet any of these mandatory technical requirements results in disqualification. The contract follows a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procurement strategy, meaning that only bids meeting all mandatory technical criteria will be considered, with award going to the lowest-priced compliant offer within each group. Pricing is structured as an all-inclusive lump sum for preventative maintenance services across five years for each cluster, with additional estimated hourly rates for emergency repairs not included in the base contract amount. The estimated total contract value ranges between $1,690,000 and $1,765,000, depending on repair usage. Suppliers must be Canadian or from a trade partner under applicable free trade agreements, and no set-asides for Indigenous businesses apply. Contractors are required to submit proposals electronically in three separate PDF files—technical, financial, and certifications—via email, with no physical submissions permitted. Additional requirements include compliance with federal and provincial environmental codes, WHMIS 2015 for hazardous materials, anti-forced labor certification, pandemic response readiness, data privacy obligations, and completion of CSC’s contractor training modules. All personal information collected during contract performance is owned by the Government of Canada and must be returned or destroyed upon contract completion. Bids must be submitted by April 30, 2026, and contractors may request a debriefing within fifteen
