This procurement is subject to the following Comprehensive Land Claims Agreement(s): Nunavut Land Claim Agreement.
Title: The Nunavut General Monitoring Plan Five-year Review
The Nunavut General Monitoring Plan (NGMP) provides for the collection, analysis and reporting of information on the long-term conditions of Nunavut’s environment, people, communities, and economy.
General monitoring is a requirement under the Nunavut Agreement and is founded within the Nunavut Agreement and the Nunavut Project Planning and Assessment Act. Both stipulate that government, in cooperation with the Nunavut Planning Commission (NPC), shall develop and implement a plan for monitoring the long-term state and health of the ecosystem and socio-economic environment of Nunavut.
Article 12.7.6 of the Nunavut Agreement states that, “there is a requirement for general monitoring to collect and analyse information on the long term state and health of the eco-systemic and socio-economic environment in the Nunavut Settlement Area. Government, in co-operation with the Nunavut Planning Commission, shall be responsible for developing a general monitoring plan and for directing and coordinating general monitoring and data collection.”
Section 227(1) of the Nunavut Project Planning and Assessment Act states that, “the Government of Canada and the Government of Nunavut must, in cooperation with the Commission, develop a plan for the general monitoring of the long-term state and health of the eco-systemic and socio-economic environment of the designated area and must direct and coordinate the general monitoring and the collection of information relating to it.
Given the fact that NGMP has now been in existence for five years, a review up to and including the current fiscal year is warranted.
The objectives of the contract are to examine NGMP in its entirety within the context of the expectations set out for it within the Nunavut Agreement and Nunavut Project Planning and Assessment Act. An outcome of the review will include recommendations for improvements to the NGMP.
Three resources are required to carry out the services over the course of approximately 6 months.
At the date of bid closing, the Contractor and each of its personnel involved in the performance of the contract must each hold a valid Government of Canada (GoC) Security Screening at the level of Secret.
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP), the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA)
