Parks Canada Visitor Experience Strategy – Request for Supply Arrangement
REQUIREMENT
Provide planning, facilitation, and writing services for site-specific Visitor Experience Strategies (VES) at National Parks, National Historic Sites, National Marine Conservation Areas or National Urban Parks either in part or in full. The VES planning, facilitation, and writing service will:
Help the client create a compelling visitor experience offer for its target markets.
Enable the client to meet revenue targets, attendance targets, and measurable performance outcomes.
Be based on Parks Canada’s established VES methodology.
Contracts resulting from the SA will typically range anywhere between $1,000.00 up to a maximum of $500,000.00 (HST included).
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA).
The Request for Supply Arrangements (RFSA) is to establish supply arrangements for the delivery of the requirement detailed in the RFSA to the Identified Users across Canada, excluding locations within Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Quebec, and Labrador that are subject to Comprehensive Land Claims Agreements (CLCAs). Any requirement for deliveries to locations within CLCAs areas within Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Quebec, or Labrador will have to be treated as a separate procurement, outside of the resulting supply arrangements.
