Stage 2 - Kootenay River DUA Privy Replacement, Kootenay National Park

Parks Canada Agency is seeking a qualified contractor to supply and install a new two-unit pre-cast concrete privy with vault at the Kootenay River Day-Use Area within Kootenay National Park, with all work required to be completed by July 15, 2026. This solicitation, numbered 5P468-25-0303/A, represents Stage Two of a two-stage procurement process, where only vendors who successfully passed Stage One’s qualification requirements are eligible to submit financial bids. The project is governed by the Canadian Standard Acquisition Clauses and Conditions (SACC/CCUA) framework, not U.S. FAR, with key contract clauses covering general provisions, administration, execution of work, and dispute resolution using the alternate clause R2882D. Bidders must submit mandatory documentation including a Certificate of Insurance, Bid Bond, Performance Bond, Labour and Material Payment Bond, Contractor Performance Evaluation Report, and a Declaration of Eligibility, all sent directly via email or fax with a total attachment size not exceeding 15 MB. The place of performance is clearly defined as the Kootenay River DUA in British Columbia, Canada, with F.O.B. Destination terms placing the responsibility for delivery and associated risks on the contractor until the facility is installed on-site. Compliance with federal and provincial regulations, including the Canada Labour Code and Parks Canada safety protocols, is essential, and all work must strictly adhere to the provided drawings and technical specifications. Bidders must also certify their status as an Indigenous business if applicable and disclose all directors and owners, with false declarations leading to disqualification. Payment will be processed via direct deposit, and no invoice submissions through WAWF or IPP platforms are mentioned. The solicitation closes on May 20, 2026, and only electronic submissions to the official email or fax are accepted—no in-person or online portal submissions are permitted. While the contract value remains unspecified, the award basis and evaluation methodology beyond pass/fail qualification criteria are not explicitly outlined, though the structure suggests a likely lowest price technically acceptable approach.
