Solicitation number RFQ - RC01-2024
Publication date
Closing date and time 2024/03/29 19:30 EDT
Description
The Ministry of Forests, BC Timber Sales (BCTS) Stuart-Nechako Business Area is establishing a Select List of prequalified contractors specializing in Forest Road Construction Contracts who may be invited to participate in subsequent direct invitation or select invitation solicitations on upcoming Road Construction, Deactivation, Maintenance, and Bridge Installation contracts. Only prequalified contractors will be invited to participate on these contract solicitations.
Subsequent agreements may have the potential of being multi-year contracts of up to seven years or option-to-renew contracts whereby the Ministry reserves the right to renew but is under no obligation to renew to a maximum of five terms. Where a multi-year or option-to-renew contract is to be tendered, all contractors on the list or within a specified, pre-disclosed category of eligibility will be invited to submit offers; contractor names will not be rotated from the Select List.
Contractors interested in being evaluated for inclusion on the Select List are invited to obtain a prequalification information package available under Supplier Attachments Exist. The package contains details of the proposed project types, the mandatory prequalification requirements, and complete instructions for submission of a response.
Submissions must be submitted in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the RFQ package.
Be aware that BCTS has made changes to its EMS and SFM programs to meet the updated 2022 Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) Forest Management Standard. Changes impacting BCTS clients include new training requirements (Table 008-1, 008-1A, Tailgate Training, SFI Awareness documents, and new Indigenous rights awareness training, as well as changes to training frequency and a new continuing education component). In addition, note changes to EMS/SFM Environmental Field Procedures and Incident Reporting Procedures which occurred June 1, 2022.
Supervisors and workers will need to be familiar with these changes prior to commencement of operations. These documents are posted on our external EMS/SFM website at BC Timber Sales - Business Area Environmental Management System (EMS) and Sustainable Forest Management (SFM) - Province of British Columbia (https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/forestry/bc-timber-sales/forest-certification/ems-sfm). More information on SFI available at www.forests.org.
Unverified bid results will be posted to BC Bid after tender opening and once awarded the contract award results will be available on BC Bid.
