Defence Construction Canada is notifying contractors of an anticipated Design‑Bid‑Build contract to construct a 1,554 m2 CADSS/MAJAID warehouse facility at Canadian Forces Base Trenton, Ontario. The facility will provide space for parachute inspection, drying, preparation and packing, a dedicated carpentry shop, storage for operational material and equipment, administrative office space, and material handling and warehouse operations including forklift use. The opportunity is planned as a two‑step solicitation (Step 1: Request for Expression of Interest; Step 2: Tender) with both steps anticipated to be posted in Fall 2026, conditional on Department of National Defence approval, and an approximate estimate of $11M–$13M. To be eligible for award bidders must actively hold or obtain the anticipated Designated Organization Screening (DOS) security clearance; Defence Construction Canada is offering sponsorship support under its Industrial Security Program to assist with clearance applications, noting sponsorship or clearance is not guaranteed.

This tender is most relevant to general contractors experienced in warehouse and military support facility construction who can manage specialized storage and material‑handling spaces and comply with DOS security requirements; key considerations include the conditional nature of the project (subject to DND approval), the need to start the security sponsorship process early, and the possible Indigenous business participation component under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business.
