Nature of Requirements:
Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) intends to
retain a professional engineering firm in the capacity of an
Environmental Consultant (EC). This firm will be supported by a
team of sub-consultants and specialists in the abatement and
geotechnical requirements for the Government Conference Centre
(GCC) Rehabilitation Project. Construction will be implemented
by a Construction Manager (CM) contracted separately by PWGSC.
The EC must work closely and collaborate continuously with the
A&E Consultant, who is responsible for the overall building
rehabilitation design. The EC shall prepare and actively manage
all aspects of the geotechnical and abatement design and
implementation associated with this Project and prepare a
Consolidated Waste Inventory and Reduction Plan in conjunction
and coordination with the A&E Consultant and the CM. Services
shall be provided in accordance with "Doing Business with
NATIONAL CAPITAL AREA", as detailed in an annex to this RFP.
The Project schedule is extremely compressed, with an overall
Completion date of December 2017. As such, the geotechnical,
demolition and abatement work is critical to the subsequent
building fit-up. The proactive delivery and management of
Services will be one of the key factors in the overall success
of this Project.
The GCC is a 101 year old classified heritage building that
requires major rehabilitation. The building currently functions
as a conference facility. The GCC has not undergone major work
since the 1970s. The need to preserve this heritage building
coincides with the need to find an interim accommodation for the
Senate of Canada.
While PWGSC has obtained Project Approval and partial funding
from Treasury Board (TB), TB has not granted complete Project
expenditure authority. PWGSC anticipates that full Project
expenditure authority will be obtained in September 2014. As
such, the Contract related to the Project Brief shall be split
into two parts. Part one shall be for the anticipated Required
Services from Contract award to September 2014. Part two shall
be for optional Required Services for the remainder of the
Project. Part two of the Contract shall be exercised via formal
Contract amendment. Refer to the Price Proposal form.
