Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) on behalf of HRSDC require a number of relocations from various sites in Metro Vancouver to the new facility. The bulk of the relocation will entail several general office moves totaling approximately 437 people. Each move may include but is not limited to, staff office content materials, closed office furniture, general filing and storage cabinets, computers and peripherals and office equipment. The relocation also involves support space furniture and contents including conference and meeting room furniture, interview room contents, general file cabinets and storage room contents being moved to various locations for surplus. The moves may also include dismantling of existing panel systems furniture and disposal off-site. Some of the panel-hung surfaces may also have cabling and devices to be removed before disposal. Moves may include dismantling of metal shelving and reassembling, or relocating to a disposal site. The Scope of this work includes all aspects of the planning and delivery of the HRSDC Move Project. This project will comprise a series of moves to relocate HRSDC staff from existing facilities to the new location. The number of moves and the number of staff members being relocated per move will be proposed by the Contractor's Project Manager during the initial planning meetings after consultation with the HRSDC and PWGSC project teams. Each of these moves will typically focus on groups of 10 - 150 people, though exceptions may have to be made. In the event of exceptions to these limits, the Contractor will work with the HRSDC and PWGSC project teams to determine an appropriate and achievable statement of the work. The Contractor must have the capacity to respond to and incorporate urgent requests within the Contract timeframes. The Contractor's Project Manager must take the leadership role in the planning exercises for all aspects of the move and take ownership of the whole plan, providing updates to all project team members, as applicable. The specific and detailed scope of each move will be itemized at the time of issuance of the Statement of Work and Task Authorization for the specific move. In general, the move is expected to take place in seven phases:
