    Description

    By means of the RFP, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is seeking proposals from bidders for technical science editing, translation and formatting of the Canada-Nunavut Geoscience Office (CNGO) Summary of Activities volume (SoA).

    NRCan requires specialized services of a contractor who is experience in all aspects of geology focused geoscience publishing, including geoscience knowledge, technical scientific editing, technical scientific English/French translation and formatting papers based on established CNGO Summary of Activities design and layout standards.

    The Canada-Nunavut Geoscience Office (CNGO) Summary of Activities (SoA) is an annual peer reviewed scientific publication that disseminates field observations, project syntheses and new geoscience discoveries and research in an expedient manner. Established in 2012, each volume is a collection of individual science papers primarily covering geoscience topics such as bedrock geology, surficial geology (including marine), geophysics, geochemistry, geochronology, sedimentology, permafrost and carving stone.

    As the only annual geoscience volume of its kind pertaining to Nunavut, it provides valuable and current CNGO supported geoscientific information to industry, scientists and local decision makers.

    As of 2021, the Summary of Activities is now available in both French and English.

    CNGO requires Technical science editing, translation and formatting of the Canada-Nunavut Geoscience Office (CNGO) Summary of Activities volume (SoA).

    CNGO may also require the occasional editing and/or translation of non-SoA geoscience papers (and accompanying tables and figures), maps and other materials for the duration of the contract.

    This procurement is subject to the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement.
