Defence Construction Canada is issuing an Advance Procurement Notice to inform contractors and consultants of upcoming Real Property Operations Group and Canadian Forces Housing Agency base program opportunities in Northern Canada (excluding Nunavut). This is not a solicitation; it allows industry to assess capacity, prepare for potential tenders and, where required, begin security clearance sponsorship through DCC’s Industrial Security Program. Projects anticipated cover remote and mission-focused infrastructure such as airfields, aprons, fuel storage, hangars, accommodation, maintenance buildings, communications systems, utilities and limited road networks to support RCAF, Army and joint operations. Procurement may be conducted via open competitive tenders on MERX/CanadaBuys, the Open Construction Source List (NR26SLNO_86070) on MERX, source lists for professional services, or standing offers/agreements; some projects may be reserved under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business. DCC may assist with sponsorship at its discretion but does not guarantee that solicitations will proceed or that security clearances will be granted.

This notice is most valuable to contractors and consultants experienced in northern or defence infrastructure, military housing, airfield and utilities work who can manage remote, seasonal operations. Key considerations include potential security clearance requirements and sponsorship timelines, extreme and remote operating conditions, possible Indigenous reservation of some projects, and no guarantee that listed solicitations will proceed.
