Benchtop X-ray Diffractometer
Solicitation # 26-58091
The National Research Council of Canada is soliciting a benchtop X-ray diffractometer (XRD) for use at its Mississauga Research Center to support advanced materials and chemical science research, with a requirement that the system analyze powder, small crystal, thin film, and metallic samples. The instrument must be a fully integrated, plug-and-play benchtop unit with all components—including the X-ray generator and goniometer—housed in a single enclosure, capable of operating in both reflection and transmission modes, and able to automatically recognize and identify installed optical components and sample stages. The system must be easily reconfigurable with minimal realignment, designed for integration into automated workflows, and delivered within 20 weeks of contract award. The procurement follows a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology, where bidders must meet all mandatory technical criteria outlined in Annex F before price becomes the deciding factor; only technically compliant proposals are eligible for award, with no trade-offs permitted between cost and performance. The contract value is not pre-established, and pricing is to be submitted by offerors in a lump sum for the primary instrument, along with optional items such as additional units and extended warranties. The successful bidder must provide full system integration, including a database license (COD or ICDD PDF-4/PDF-5), an uninterruptible power supply, and all necessary hardware, firmware, and software. Delivery must occur at 2620 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, under DAP Incoterms® 2020, with Canada retaining the right to inspect the equipment at the contractor’s facility or upon delivery, and a 30-day acceptance window following delivery. All equipment must comply with Canadian Electrical Code Part 1, Radiation Safety Codes, and be certified by a Standards Council of Canada-accredited body. Packaging must prioritize reusable, recyclable, or returnable materials under Green Procurement Policy guidelines, and each shipment must be clearly labeled with quantity, part number, description, contract number, and procurement billing number. Contractors must hold Canadian citizenship or be a Canadian supplier under reciprocal procurement rules, and personnel may require CONFIDENTIAL to TOP SECRET security clearances based on access to classified material. Proposals must be submitted electronically by August 17, 2026, in separate, non-zipped files not exceeding 10MB, including technical and financial offers along with mandatory declaration forms certifying compliance with integrity, employment equity, international sanctions, and anti-forced labor

U-61 Cooling Plant Optimization
Solicitation # 25-58079
The National Research Council Canada is seeking qualified Canadian contractors to perform the U-61 Cooling Plant Optimization project at 1920 Research Private, Building U-61, Ottawa, Ontario. The contract requires the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of cooling system components to enhance operational efficiency and ensure compliance with applicable technical and safety standards, with all work to be completed within 16 weeks from the date of tender acceptance, targeting an anticipated start date of August 26, 2026. Only suppliers registered as Canadian Contractors are eligible to bid, as this solicitation is governed by the Policy on Reciprocal Procurement, and offers from non-trading partner countries will be rejected. Bidders must attend one of two mandatory site visits on July 29 or 30, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. EDT, and sign the attendance sheet; failure to do so will result in bid rejection. All personnel, including subcontractors, must obtain the required security clearances—ranging from Reliability Status to Top Secret—and comply with strict safeguarding measures for PROTECTED and CLASSIFIED information; non-compliance will deny site access, and the contractor assumes all associated delays and costs. Contractors must adhere to safety protocols during site visits and on-site work, including wearing approved personal protective equipment, and must ensure all personnel are properly trained, wear NRC-issued identification badges, and are subject to immediate removal for safety violations. The evaluation of bids will be based on five equally weighted technical factors: Quality of Workmanship, Time, Project Management, Contract Management, and Health and Safety, each scored from 0 to 20 using adjectival ratings of Unacceptable, Not Satisfactory, Satisfactory, and Superior; the award will be determined through a trade-off process considering overall technical merit. The contractor is required to submit comprehensive deliverables including commissioning reports, maintenance documentation, training programs, electrical and piping labels, and inventory records in English and computer-compatible formats, all in accordance with CSA, ASME, UL, AWWA, and other specified standards. All submissions must be emailed to Max.Grohs@nrc-cnrc.gc.ca as individual, non-compressed attachments prior to the August 18, 2026 deadline, with no external links or ZIP files permitted. The contract includes stringent administrative and financial requirements, including compliance with the Government of Canada’s Integrity Regime, proper accounting practices, and statutory declarations
