Work Description: Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) on behalf of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) is inviting consulting firms with civil and structural engineering expertise to submit offers for Standing Offers. The selected consultants shall provide a range of services as identified in the Required Services section of this document in British Columbia.

Offerors shall be licensed or eligible to be licensed to practice in the province of British Columbia. Firms should be able to demonstrate successful delivery of these services for a broad variety of projects over the last five (5) years. In general, the firm and its personnel will be evaluated on the basis of their demonstrated understanding of the scope of services, their approach and methodology to providing those services, the quality of their relevant experience in this area, as well as the cost of the provision of the services.

It is PWGSC's intention to authorize up to three (3) Standing Offers, each for a period of three (3) years from the date of issuing the Standing Offers. The total dollar value of all Standing Offers is estimated to be $5,000,000.00 (Applicable Taxes included). Individual call-ups will vary, up to a maximum of $400,000.00 (Applicable Taxes included) for Salmonid Hatchery sites, and a maximum of $60,000 (Applicable Taxes included) for all other sites. Offerors should note that there is no guarantee that the full or any amount of the Standing Offers will be called-up; DFO will issue call-ups only when the specific services to be provided under the Standing Offer are needed.

Period of Standing Offer: The period for placing call-ups against the Standing Offer shall be for three (3) years commencing from the start date identified on the Standing Offer.
