INDIGENOUS BENEFITS PLAN (IBP)

The Department of National Defence (DND), which administers Esquimalt Harbour, is implementing a remediation and risk management program in Esquimalt Harbour at Y-Jetty and Lang Cove as part of a long-term strategy to address sediments that have been contaminated by historical industrial activities. The project will implement remedial dredging and material placement measures to reduce ecological risk and associated liability for DND.

As part of Canada’s commitment to support its First Nations population, this procurement contains an optional point rated Indigenous Benefits Plan (IBP) component that aims to provide socio-economic benefits to Indigenous People and Indigenous Firms of the Esquimalt and Songhees Nation. The information that Bidders are required to provide is set out in detail elsewhere in the RFP.

With the project location situated within the traditional territories of the Esquimalt Nation and Songhees Nation, bidders are encouraged to employ the available local workforce and utilize other locally available resources and equipment.

Work Description

1. Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) intends to retain a Contractor to provide construction services for the project as set out in this Request for Proposal (RFP). Bidders responding to this RFP are requested to submit a full and complete Bid. The Bid will cover not only the Indigenous Benefit Plan (IBP) provided by the bidder, but also the Technical Criteria and pricing.

2. This is a single phase ?two envelope? selection process.

3. This RFP Document sets out the project requirement, i.e., the particulars of the project itself, the Indigenous Benefit Plan (IBP) and the broad scope of services required from the Contractor.

4. Based upon their analysis of the project requirement, IBP requirements and the capability/capacity of the firm, the Bidders formulate Bids for the service, including their price.

5. The Bidders should provide their proposed IBP submission and proposed services in the ?Technical Proposal? of the submission (Envelope One). The "Price Proposal" includes the proposed price and bid security which is submitted in a sealed envelope (Envelope Two).

6. The IBP and Technical Portion of proposal(s) received will be evaluated, without knowledge of the price, by the PWGSC Evaluation Board. Evaluation is based on a set of mandatory and pre-established criteria, components and weight factors. Numerical technical scores will be awarded at the completion of the technical evaluation.

7. Price envelopes are then opened for the technically qualified proposals. The responsive bid with the highest points combined will be recommended for award of the contract. Bidders who have not met the minimum technical pass score of one hundred twenty (120) points or who have been deemed non-compliant will have their price proposals returned to them unopened with no further evaluation of their proposal.

Bidders cannot propose or otherwise include subcontractors in their bid that will be also participating in the solicitation as a Bidder. Any bid that lists another Bidder as subcontractor will be deemed non-compliant in accordance with SI11. In addition, if it is demonstrated that the subcontractor/Bidder was aware of and had indicated its approval of being listed as subcontractor, the subcontractor/Bidder`s bid may be deemed non-compliant in accordance with GI17.

The project is not a standard dredging and disposal project; it is a remedial (i.e., contaminated materials) dredging project. Dredge material within the Work Site is located in difficult access areas and is contaminated with various chemicals of concern, may contain Debris, Suspected Unexploded Explosive Ordnance (UXO), and historically, archaeologically, architecturally, or paleontologically significant structures, sites, or things. The Contractor must use extra care to conduct its work in a manner that is suitable for environmental cleanup and not in a production dredging manner. The Contractor must conduct its work in a manner to minimize, to the extent practicable, resuspension and redistribution of contaminated sediment, and to comply with environmental protection requirements in these Specifications, the Environmental Management Plan (EMP), and any applicable permit conditions.
Work under this Contract covers required work elements (Base Work) and optional work elements (Optional Work) and the associated Tender Items for each type of work are listed in the Unit Price Table. The Departmental Representative may elect to include Optional Work as part of the Contract.

The Coasting Trade Act applies to ALL vessels utilized by the Contractor during completion of the Work as part of this contract.

Work will be performed in accordance with the contract schedules within the scope of work.
