    Firms intending to submit tenders on this project should obtain tender documents through the Buyandsell.gc.ca TMA services provider.

    1. MANDATORY SITE VISIT

    It is mandatory that the bidder attends one of the site visits at the designated date and time. At least one representative from proponents that intend to bid must attend. The site visits will be held onAugust 25th and August 26th, 2022 at 9:00am. Meet Allan Smith at Building S-77, Main Entrance, 100 Sussex Drive, Ottawa, ON. Bidders who, for any reason, cannot attend one of the specified dates and time will not be given an alternative appointment to view the site and their tenders, therefore, will be considered as non-responsive. NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE.

    * Due to COVID-19, we are taking additional measures to protect you and our employees at the site visits.

    • At the site visit, to limit contact and risks:
    • The proponents will sanitize their hands at the hand sanitizing station.
    • The proponents will be asked to sign the Attendance Form. It is the responsibility of all proponents to verify information on the Attendance Form.
    • The site visit will proceed with a maximum of four (4) proponents at a time. Each group will have approximately 20 minutes to review the site. The site visit will continue with the next group of four (4) proponents until each one has had a chance to review the site.
    • The site visits could take longer than usual, therefore anticipate a longer meeting duration.
    • Physical distancing: keeping a distance of at least 2 arms-length (approximately 2 metres) from others may not be possible at all times, therefore the use of NRC issued disposable face coverings to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19 is mandatory.
    • The proponents shall not impede safe access to and from the facility.
    • Depending on the anticipated amount of pre-registration, the NRC may decide to schedule time slots for every group of four (4) proponents. The time slot for your site visit will be confirmed by the NRC Departmental Representative by email upon pre-registration. That time will supersede the site visit meeting time specified above.
    • Proposals submitted by bidders who have not attended the site visit or failed to submit their identification and contact information at the site visit will be deemed non-responsive.
