Voting Supply Bags Production

The contract calls for the manufacture of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) voting supply bags featuring a co-extruded white exterior, with specific requirements for gusseting, sealing, and labeling to meet detailed technical specifications. These bags are intended for use in federal electoral processes and must be produced to ensure durability, consistency, and compliance with official standards set by Elections Canada. The work is classified under NAICS code 326199 and is structured as a subcontract opportunity, indicating that the successful vendor will likely supply finished goods to a prime contractor or government entity involved in the election logistics chain. The solicitation was posted on July 29, 2026, with a firm deadline for responses set for August 12, 2026, at 7:00 PM Eastern Time. The place of performance is designated as the National Capital Region, suggesting the delivered products may be distributed from or through Ottawa or surrounding areas to support nationwide voting operations. While the contract does not specify a set-aside for small businesses or other preferred categories, it is administered by the Government of Canada under the Elections Canada banner, emphasizing the critical and non-partisan nature of the supply. Vendors must ensure their production methods and final products align precisely with the technical requirements to meet the integrity and operational needs of the federal election system.
