Description of the Requirement:
The socio-economic gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Peoples in Canada is significant. Aging, inadequate infrastructure in Indigenous communities has had significant and ongoing negative consequences for social, health, and economic outcomes. Policing facilities have fallen into a state of disrepair and are in need of significant remediation.
As a result of the ad hoc approach taken in the past to fund the policing facilities in First Nation and Inuit communities, various facilities pose health and safety risks to police officers, detainees, and other individuals that may enter the premises.
Public Safety Canada funds the FNIPFP to support better policing infrastructure for the people who live and work in Indigenous communities. These investments will support First Nation and Inuit communities to ensure their policing infrastructure meets building, policing facility, and health and safety standards.
The program is cost-shared 52%-48% with the provinces and territories and will provide funding to repair, renovate, or replace policing facilities owned by First Nation and Inuit communities.
The Internal Audit and Evaluation Directorate, Public Safety Canada, is seeking the services of a Contractor to conduct an evaluation of Public Safety’s First Nations and Inuit Policing Facilities Program as required by the Treasury Board Policy and Directive on Results (2016). The evaluation will focus on:
- achievement of short and medium term outcomes;
- successes and challenges encountered over the evaluation period;
- the application and inclusion of Gender-Based Analysis Plus (GBA+) considerations in program design and implementation;
- relationship between program and other related federal policy and legislative programs; and best practices, lessons learned and potential opportunities to improve performance.
The evaluation will provide the Deputy Minister of Public Safety Canada, as well as senior management, with reliable information to support decision making regarding Public Safety’s First Nations and Inuit Policing Facilities Program. The evaluation will cover the time period from 2018-19 to the current fiscal year.
Applicable Trade Agreements: Canada’s obligations under any applicable trade agreements are set-aside as a result of the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business (PSIB).
Level of Security Requirement:
- Resource Minimum Security Level Required: Reliability Status
- Document Safeguarding Minimum Level Required: None
Proposed period of contract:
The requirement is intended to result in the award of one (1) contract. The proposed period of contract shall be from September 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024.
