The Government of Saskatchewan (Ministry of Highways) is seeking suppliers to provide operating leases for various types of earth moving equipment and attachments on an “if and when required” basis under a continuous onboarding Request for Supplier Qualifications (RFSQ). Prequalified suppliers must be able to supply steel track excavators and a range of attachments used primarily for culvert maintenance, drainage work and digging out road failures, including general-duty toothed buckets, smooth cleanout/landscaping buckets, hydraulic thumbs (3 or 4 tooth) and rock rippers/shanks. Successful prequalification will lead to invitation to a second-stage bidding process, with the Ministry expecting to enter into 60-month (5 year) lease agreements at about 500 hours per year per award, though other leasing terms may be considered and the Ministry may purchase equipment prior to term end if funds become available; suppliers prequalified under RFSQ 8438 are not required to respond to this RFSQ.

This tender is likely valuable for equipment suppliers or rental firms that can provide steel-track excavators and the listed attachments and are prepared for multi-year lease arrangements; key considerations include meeting the Ministry’s operational uses (culvert maintenance, drainage and road-failure recovery), readiness for a second-stage bid after prequalification, the continuous onboarding nature of the RFSQ, and that the Ministry may alter lease terms or purchase equipment before lease end.
