The Department of Justice Canada (Justice) has over 2000 employees in the National Capital Region spread out in different locations. Over the past several years, the National Accommodations Division has had almost daily scheduled and unscheduled moves for dismantling and installation of office equipment that could range from one (1) office to a hundred (100) or more. It is possible that these numbers could increase or decrease as business needs arise.
The objective of this requirement is to acquire services from one (1) Contractor to dismantle, move and install other equipment (kitchen appliances), office equipment, furniture, and related goods/services, for Justice on an "as and when requested basis”. The services of the Contractor will be required between the following buildings:

- 100 Metcalfe Street;
- 275 Sparks Street;
- 99 Bank Street;
- 50 O’Connor;
- As needed, any other Department of Justice Canada office spaces located in the NCR.
The resulting contract will be a Task Authorization contract, from date of award until March 31, 2016 with the option to extend by two (2) additional one (1) year option periods. The annual budget for these services is estimated not to exceed $400,000.00 plus applicable taxes; However, there is no minimum work guarantee.
The bidder must identify a minimum of sixteen (16) personnel that are available to perform work under a resulting contract, as indicated in Mandatory Requirement M2. Of the proposed personnel:
- at least eight (8) personnel must hold, at a minimum, a valid SECRET security clearance, granted and approved by CISD/PWGSC; and
- the remainder of the personnel must hold a valid RELIABILITY STATUS security clearance, granted and approved by CISD/PWGSC.
At the date of bid closing, the security requirement MUST be met. The Bidder MUST submit evidence of security requirements with their bid submission, as indicated in Mandatory Requirement M4.

By the end of the initial contract period, it will be necessary for all personnel (Contractor must maintain the minimum of sixteen (16)) who will perform work within the optional period(s), to hold at a minimum, a valid SECRET security clearance granted and approved by CISD/PWGSC. Security clearances will be verified before the option to extend the contract is exercised. Only those personnel whose clearance is verified at a minimum of SECRET will be able to continue performing work under the contract. If the Contractor cannot supply the minimum sixteen (16) resources all with a valid SECRET clearance, the optional period will not be exercised. The same process will be followed upon exercising the second option to extend the contract as well.
