As a schedule II and V of the Financial Administration Act (FAA), POLAR has the authority to develop their own classification and compensation models which may differ from the core public administration.

The proposed model will support Canada’s knowledge of the Arctic, strengthening Canadian leadership in polar science and technology, and promote the development and distribution of knowledge of other circumpolar regions, including Antarctica. Proposals should demonstrate how stakeholder and community consultation will be integrated as a core element of the approach and provide a Full Life Cycle cost estimate of implementing and operating such model. The initial contract period will be from contract award to May 31st, 2024.
