Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) is inviting architectural firms to submit proposals to provide professional services required for the animal wing to wet laboratory conversion at the Sir Frederick Banting Research Centre, 251 Sir Frederick Banting Way, Ottawa, Ontario.

PWGSC intends to retain an architectural firm in the capacity of Prime Consultant, together with a multidisciplinary team of Sub-Consultants such as a structural engineer, a mechanical engineer, an electrical engineer, a laboratory design specialist and a cost specialist, for the provision of the services required for this project.

Consulting firms must be licensed, or eligible to be licensed, certified or otherwise authorized to provide professional services to the full extent that may be required by law in the Province of Ontario.

The construction cost estimate is $12,000,000.00, HST excluded.

Proponents are requested to submit a proposal in two phases. Phase One proposals cover only the qualifications, experience and organization of the proposed Consultant Team.

Phase Two proposals cover the detailed approach to the work, and the pricing and terms offered. A combination of the Phase One and Phase Two submissions constitutes the final proposal.
