This solicitation is conducted under the Canadian Free Trade Agreement; bidding documents are available on MERX and questions must be directed only to the identified point of contact.

Insight

This opportunity will be most relevant to civil contractors experienced in large-scale underground utility replacement and associated excavation, pipe installation and restoration work who can manage an ~$8.2M contract, Indigenous Benefits Plan obligations and mobilize for a site visit on August 25, 2026. Key considerations include the tight Substantial Completion timeline (415 days), significant excavation and off-site disposal requirements, multiple utility sizes and connections, and compliance with current codes and the IBP.
