Federal tender seeks Rankin Inlet residential-property remediation; only pre-qualified supplier invited
Public Services and Procurement Canada has issued a selectively tendered solicitation for remediation work at a residential property in Rankin Inlet. The notice invites only NUQSANA-WSP Engineering and Environmental Consulting Inc., a holder under the federal northern contaminated-sites remediation supply arrangement, to submit a proposal. It closes Aug. 28 at 3 p.m. EDT and is not a contract award. Sourcecanadabuys.canada.ca↗
What happened
PSPC posted solicitation WS5834966857, titled “ET022-270322 Indigenous Services Canada Soil Remediation Rankin Inlet, NU,” on Aug. 14 and amended it Aug. 18. The notice describes remediation activities at a residential property in Rankin Inlet, but does not identify the address, contaminants, anticipated cost or work scope in the public notice.
Why it matters
The procurement signals planned federal contaminated-site work at a Rankin Inlet residence. It is not an open competition for all suppliers: the solicitation is limited to a named firm qualified through the federal remediation-construction supply arrangement for northern contaminated sites in the Kivalliq administrative zone.
What happens next
The bid deadline is Aug. 28, 2026, at 3 p.m. EDT. The notice estimates a 12-month contract period beginning Sept. 7, 2026, but work cannot be treated as approved or underway unless PSPC later awards a contract.
