Defence Construction Canada is seeking suppliers to be placed on a National Source List to supply, install, verify, inspect and test electronic security system components and systems, and to provide training and maintenance support for new and existing systems at locations across Canada (excluding Nunavut). The anticipated solicitation will select multiple contractors to provide services on an “as and when required” basis with an estimated value of $3,000,000 for a three-year period from establishment, with discretionary extensions that could increase the total potential duration to seven years and total potential value to $7,000,000; the opportunity is conditional on DND approval and has an anticipated posting of November 2026 (Contract HOSL2501_83569). Proponents must actively hold or obtain required security clearances prior to award, with the anticipated levels being Facility Security Clearance (FSC) for businesses and Reliability for personnel; DCC is offering sponsorship through its Industrial Security Program and requests to begin the sponsorship process via the DCC website quoting the contract number 83569. Questions about ISP sponsorship can be directed to (613) 998-8974 or ISP.Sponsorship@dcc-cdc.gc.ca, and questions about this Advance Procurement Notice can be directed to Andre Champagne at 873-354-7245 or andre.champagne@dcc-cdc.gc.ca.

This opportunity is well suited to electronic security system suppliers and installation/maintenance firms able to operate across Canada and that have, or can obtain, Facility Security Clearance (FSC) and Reliability clearances for personnel; key challenges include securing the required clearances before award, coordinating work across multiple locations (across Canada, excluding Nunavut), and the fact the source list is conditional on DND approval and may be competitive.
