The Correctional Service of Canada is seeking a supplier to replace an existing hydro utility pole and associated 44 kV air break switch on the primary electrical feed to Beaver Creek Institution in Ontario. The work requires coordinating and planning with institutional staff and the local utility, establishing electrical isolation and safety controls, removing existing infrastructure, installing a new pole and support systems and a new 44 kV air break switch, reinstalling electrical components, testing and commissioning the new switch, restoring the system and site, and final cleanup, all to be completed within fifteen (15) weeks from notification of acceptance. The procurement is open only to Canadian suppliers under the Canadian Free Trade Agreement, will be awarded to the lowest priced compliant bid, and carries no security requirements or Indigenous set-asides.

This could be ideal for electrical contractors experienced in high-voltage (44 kV) switchgear and utility pole replacements who can coordinate with correctional institution staff and the local utility. Key considerations include the 15-week completion window, the need to establish electrical isolation and safety controls, and managing work on the institution’s primary power feed while minimizing outage risk; procurement is restricted to Canadian suppliers and evaluated on lowest priced compliant bid.
