Description
The overall objective is to update the Natural Resources Canada database on Trees, Insects and Diseases of Canada's Forests (TIDCF). Within the scope of this work, about 450 individual pest fact sheets will need to be written for individual insects and pathogens that feed on or otherwise damage trees in Canadian forests, plantations, or urban or horticultural environments. The intended audience for the fact sheets is a more sophisticated one, including forest management and protection staff, pest extension personnel, arborists and tree care specialists, park naturalists, students of post-secondary institutions, and educators, although the general public will also be able to make use of the information.
NRCan is seeking to establish up to eight (8) Standing Offers for the writing of individual pest fact sheets for the Trees, Insects and Diseases of Canada's Forests (TIDCF) database. There will be two (2) streams, with a maximum of four (4) standing offers per stream:
Stream 1 – Insects,
Stream 2 – Pathogens (i.e., fungi, bacteria, viruses, parasitic plants, nematodes).
The period of the Standing Offer will be from the date of the Standing Offer to April 30, 2024. It also includes three (3) option years.
Contract duration
The estimated contract period will be 12 month(s), with a proposed start date of 2023/04/30.
