Remai Modern Landscaping Project

The City of Saskatoon is soliciting proposals for the Remai Modern Landscaping Project, seeking a multidisciplinary design team led by a licensed Saskatchewan landscape architect to develop a 10,700 square foot nature, education, and art space. The selected team will advance the project from its current conceptual stage through detailed design, procurement support, and construction contract administration, with a performance period extending until September 2028. Key responsibilities include the preparation of tender-ready drawings and specifications, managing regulatory approvals with stakeholders such as the Meewasin Valley Authority, and ensuring the design balances curatorial vision with environmental stewardship and accessibility. The procurement process emphasizes Indigenous participation, requiring respondents to provide specific person-hour estimates and demonstrate engagement strategies for Indigenous persons. Evaluation is based on a weighted scoring system considering pricing, organizational experience, methodology, and a track record of at least three successful related projects within the last five years. Award conditions include the provision of a Saskatchewan Workers Compensation Board clearance letter and proof of general liability insurance. The contract will be governed by a standard consulting agreement that includes strict requirements for protecting city confidential information and compliance with the Local Authority Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
