THOUSAND ISLANDS SS (TISS) - HVAC Replacement & Upgrades

The Upper Canada District School Board is seeking bids for a comprehensive HVAC replacement and upgrade project at Thousand Islands Secondary School located at 2510 Parkedale Avenue in Brockville, Ontario. The solicitation, identified as BT-26-056, is open exclusively to pre-qualified and eligible bidders and requires all work to begin on or about June 1, 2026, with full substantial completion mandated no later than August 21, 2027. This timeline imposes a strict schedule, demanding efficient planning and execution to meet the deadline. The project scope includes replacing and upgrading existing heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems to ensure improved performance, energy efficiency, and compliance with current standards, though specific technical details are outlined in the full tender documentation. Bids must be submitted by the response deadline of May 9, 2026, and all proposals are to be evaluated based on predefined criteria set by the school board. The contracting authority is Chris Groenewoud, who can be reached via email or phone for inquiries related to the tender. The procurement is conducted under the school board’s administrative framework, despite the contract data incorrectly listing the agency as the Government of Canada, which appears to be a misclassification; the actual entity issuing and managing the contract is the Upper Canada District School Board. Tenders are accessible through the Canada Buys platform, and only bidders who meet the pre-qualification requirements are eligible to submit proposals. Any failure to comply with the stated deadlines, qualifications, or technical specifications will result in disqualification.
