IMMIGRATION AND REFUGEE BOARD OF CANADA HAS A SECURITY GUARD SERVICES REQUIREMENT FOR CLOSE PROTECTION & MOBILE PATROLS ACROSS CANADA.

The Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada has a national (across Canada) requirement for the provision of an elite personal security detail in the form of mobile patrols with company dedicated vehicles, providing close protection, escorting to and from itinerate locations, while possibly requiring the use of a protective vest. The purpose of this Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) is to signal the government's intention to award a contract for these services to G4S Secure Solutions Canada Ltd located in Markham, Ontario. Before awarding a contract, however, the government would like to provide other suppliers with the opportunity to demonstrate that they are capable of satisfying the requirements set out in this Notice, by submitting a statement of capabilities during the 15 calendar day posting period. If other potential suppliers submit a statement of capabilities during the 15 calendar day posting period that meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, the government will proceed to a full tendering process on either the government's electronic tendering service or through traditional means, in order to award the contract. If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a statement of capabilities meeting the requirements set out in the ACAN, a contract will be awarded to the pre-selected supplier.
