Scheduled Passenger Transportation Services

The contract seeks to provide regularly scheduled ground or air passenger transportation services connecting Thompson Airport, Thompson General Hospital, and Split Lake Nursing Station exclusively for personnel and clients of Indigenous Services Canada.

The solicitation, posted on May 5, 2026, requires proposals to be submitted by May 14, 2026, and is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 485991, which covers other passenger transportation services. The work is to be performed in Thompson, Manitoba, and falls under the purview of the Government of Canada’s Department of Indigenous Services. While no set-aside provisions are specified, the contract underscores the federal commitment to supporting healthcare accessibility in Indigenous communities through dependable transportation solutions, with the expectation that vendors will demonstrate experience in remote region operations, safety compliance, and cultural sensitivity.
