Request for Supply Arrangement for South Coast Salmon Monitoring and Biological Support

Solicitation # 30004087A

Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) is establishing a Supply Arrangement (SA) for South Coast Salmon Monitoring and Biological Support services in British Columbia. This arrangement creates a pool of qualified firms to provide services on an as-and-when-requested basis across three geographic zones covering Vancouver Island, the Mainland Inlets, and the Sunshine Coast. The scope of work is divided into four categories: population monitoring, fishery monitoring, habitat monitoring, and population, fishery, and habitat analysis. The SA is open for ongoing qualification until June 30, 2028, with the overall period of performance extending to December 31, 2028. The procurement is divided into two streams: a General Stream subject to the Canadian Free Trade Agreement and a PSIB Stream set aside specifically for Indigenous businesses. Selection is based on a minimum point rating system, requiring bidders to meet all mandatory technical criteria, including a minimum of 24 months of relative experience for targeted activities. Rather than fixed pricing, suppliers must provide ceiling rates for resources, which DFO may negotiate downward based on specific task requirements. Subsequent contracts will be issued through a tiered system based on value, ranging from $25,001 to over $100,000. There are no security requirements for this arrangement, though contractors are responsible for all personal safety and must provide insurance certificates upon award.
