Create free accountAn advanced contract award notice (ACAN) is a public notice indicating to the supplier community that a department or agency intends to award a contract for goods, services or construction to a pre-identified supplier, thereby allowing other suppliers to signal their interest in bidding, by submitting a statement of capabilities. If no supplier submits a statement of capabilities that meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, on or before the closing date and time stated in the ACAN, the contracting officer may then proceed with the award to the pre-identified supplier.
The Correctional Service Canada has a requirement to provide a one-bed Community Residential Facility (CRF)/ supervised satellite apartment contract (as well as parole supervision) for a female offender supervised by the Women’s Supervision Unit in Toronto. The work will involve the following:
A one-bed CRF/supervised satellite apartment arrangement will be put in place to accommodate a high risk, high needs female offender who has not been accepted at any other CRF for females in Canada. This offender has a Parole Board of Canada imposed residency condition and therefore must be maintained and supervised as per the CRF/CCC and Community Assessment and Parole Supervision (CAPS) guidelines and statements of work.
The contractor will provide a one-bed, full-time supervised satellite apartment facility, with a full-time counsellor. The contractor will also provide a day reporting centre service for female offender(s).
A one-bed fully supervised satellite apartment facility will be maintained and counsellor service will be available full time for one high-risk, high-needs female offender. A day reporting centre service will also be provided. These services will meet legal obligations to ensure the safe supervision of the offender as well as ensuring community safety.
The contractor must follow Correctional Service Canada CRF/CCC guidelines and statement of work. The contractor must provide 24-hour residential services, support, supervision and assessment for a high needs/high risk offender in keeping with generally accepted community practices and CSC’s Commissioner’s Directive 715-2.
1.5.1 The contractor will operate a reporting centre, which will provide an interview setting and supervision, support and assessment for female offender(s). The reporting centre will provide service between the hours of 12:00 pm and 8:00 pm, seven days a week, as well as the services of a case management worker. The case management worker will meet with the supervised offender(s) on an agreed and as-required basis between CSC and the Contractor.
The contractor will also operate a 24 hour a day supervised CRF/Satellite apartment facility. The contractor will provide housing, basic supplies, supervisory staff, and securely maintain offender records.
