    Description
    The Province invites Respondents to submit Responses to qualify resources to provide services on Fallers Coach, Faller Supervisor, Qualified Faller Trainer, Qualified Faller Assessor, and Helipad Construction Trainer. 

    Services will be provided to the Ministry of Forests, BC Wildfire Service (“BCWS”) at BCWS specified venues and may also be provided at Contractor supplied Timber Sites. The Services will prepare BCWS staff to perform their duties as fallers by helping them to develop the skills and training they require to safely perform their duties. The Services are not being provided in the context of active wildfires.


    Respondents may propose any number of resources for each of the five lists and may propose the same resource for any number of lists (e.g., all five lists). Respondents are invited to apply to qualify recourses for either Faller Coach or Faller Supervisor, or may apply to qualify resources for both, and may, but are not required, to also apply to qualify resources for Qualified Faller Trainer, Qualified Faller Assessor and Helipad Construction Trainer. For greater clarity, Respondents are not required to apply to qualify resources for all five lists, but if submitting a Response, Respondents are required at a minimum to apply to qualify resources for either the Faller Coach or Faller Supervisor lists.

    The Province intends to enter into Standing Arrangements with the 20 top highest scoring Respondents who meet all mandatory criteria, qualification criteria and minimum scores. The Services are to be provided on an as, if and when requested basis and no representations, commitments or guarantees are made with respect to the timing, number or value of Service Requests that may be requested from a Contractor over the term. A Standing Arrangement established pursuant to this RSA does not confer an exclusive right to provide the Services to the Province. The Province reserves the right to procure the Services by any other means, including use of other agreements, or by other procurement or contracting methods.

    The anticipated term of each Standing Arrangement is from July 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024 in the first year and April 1 to March 31 in subsequent years. Each Standing Arrangement will contain an option to extend whereby the Ministry reserves the right, at its sole option, to extend the Standing Arrangement for two one-year terms.
