Sled Self Propelled, 4 strokes

The Department of National Defence is seeking to procure nineteen new 4-stroke gasoline-powered self-propelled sleds for delivery to Canadian Forces Bases in Greenwood, Winnipeg, Trenton, Goose Bay, and Dundurn. This procurement is strictly set aside for Indigenous businesses registered in the Indigenous Business Directory. While the original request specified delivery within 120 days of contract award, subsequent amendments have clarified that a delivery date in October 2027 is acceptable and that 2028 model years are permitted. The contract will be awarded to the compliant offer with the lowest aggregate evaluated price, provided all mandatory technical criteria are met. Bids must be submitted electronically in Canadian dollars on a Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) basis. Proposals are required to be organized into four sections: Technical Offer, Financial Offer, Offer Submission and Declaration Forms, and Additional Information. The final deadline for submissions is November 18, 2026. Successful contractors must comply with the Motor Vehicle Safety Act and the Hazardous Products Act, providing bilingual Safety Data Sheets and ensuring all wood packaging meets ISPM 15 standards. All vehicles must feature permanent identification, including the manufacturer name, model, serial number, and dry mass.
