THIS PROCUREMENT CONTAINS A SECURITY REQUIREMENT
Public Works and Government Services Canada (is also known as Public Services and Procurement Canada)
REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) intends to retain an individual consulting firm or joint venture to develop a Repeatable Design Framework, provide Architectural and Engineering Services and act as Design Control Authority in support of the Federal Science and Technology Infrastructure Initiative (FSTII). This solicitation is intended for establishing a contract with task authorizations for the delivery of the requirement detailed herein.
BACKGROUND: Canada is developing an enterprise-wide portfolio approach for its Science Facilities referred to as the Federal Science and Technology Infrastructure Initiative (FSTII). FSTII will involve innovative approaches to renew aging science infrastructure for delivery of science programs (i.e. buildings, equipment, and Information Management/ Information Technology (IM/IT)). This initiative aims to support evidence-based policy and enable cost-effective and sustainable scientific program delivery.
PSPC is working closely with Federal Science Partners including Federal Departments and Agencies, technology champions and Shared Services Canada, to develop state-of-the-art science infrastructure solutions that meet today’s science program needs and can be quickly adapted and expanded to support future programs and priorities. Collaboration and infrastructure flexibility are key FSTII objectives, enabling both physical and virtual collaboration, while supporting the delivery of multiple concurrent science programs.
Currently, the Federal government operates over two million square meters of laboratory (lab) and science-related assets in approximately 1,450 facilities at 175 sites across Canada. There are more than 125 Science and Technology labs in the National Capital Area (NCA), with facilities at multiple sites in both urban and isolated locations.
FSTII proposes the consolidation and modernization of Federal science facilities over a 25-30-year period, through a series of incremental plans that will serve to increase science collaboration, provide flexible and extensible building envelopes and internal workspaces that reduce overall operating costs, improve operating efficiency.
This is a single phase selection process. The nature of the requirement and the anticipated limited number of responses by the industry leads PWGSC to believe that this approach will not unduly force a large number of firms to expend an overall unreasonable amount of effort in response to PWGSC.
Proponents responding to this RFP are requested to submit a full and complete proposal. The proposal will cover not only the qualifications, experience and organization of the proposed Consultant Team, but also the detailed approach to the work, and the pricing and terms offered.
The Proponent must be authorized to provide architectural and multidisciplinary engineering services, licensed, or eligible to be licensed, certified or otherwise authorized to provide the necessary professional services to the full extent that may be required by provincial law in any province of Canada.
SECURITY REQUIREMENT 1. Before award of a contract, the following conditions must be met: (a) the Proponent must hold a valid organization security clearance as indicated in Supplementary Conditions SC1; (b) the Proponent's proposed individuals requiring access to classified or protected information, assets or sensitive work site(s) must meet the security requirement as indicated in Supplementary Conditions SC1; (c) the Proponent must provide the name of all individuals who will require access to classified or protected information, assets or sensitive work sites.;
2. Proponents are reminded to obtain the required security clearance promptly. Any delay in the award of a contract to allow the successful Proponent to obtain the required clearance will be at the entire discretion of the Contracting Authority.
3. For additional information on security requirements, proponents should refer to the Contract Security Program of Public Works and Government Services Canada ((http://www.tpsgc-pwgsc.gc.ca/esc-src/introduction-eng.html) website.
