    Title: Pre-Qualified Artwork Inventory for Outdoor Exhibits and Major Events Canada’s Capital Region

    Description of Requirement:

    The Department of Canadian Heritage (PCH) is seeking professional Canadian artists who work with large-scale outdoor formats, including interactive and light installations. PCH wishes to showcase Canadian artistic excellence to enrich the visitor experience in Canada’s Capital Region. This is an opportunity for artists to present their art in highly visible locations in downtown Ottawa and Gatineau. Artists’ artworks that are retained in the inventory may be used for exhibitions at special events (such as Canada Day or Winterlude), or may be displayed at various locations in the National Capital Region for longer term exhibitions.

    Evaluation Process and Selection Methodology

    Evaluation Procedures

    a. Proposals will be assessed in accordance with the entire requirement of the call for proposals (mandatory and rated requirements – see Annex « B »).

    b. An evaluation team (jury) made up of Canadian representatives, arts, culture and artistic programming professionals will select artworks to be pre-qualified for the inventory. The final choice, number, programming and placement of artworks that have been selected for display is at the discretion of PCH.

    Basis of Selection

    To be declared responsive, a proposal must:
    a. comply with all the requirement of the call for proposals;
    b. meet all the mandatory requirements (see Annex « B »); and
    c. meet the minimum required score for each of the point rated criteria (see Annex « B »).

    Proposals not meeting above requirements will be declared non-responsive.

    Responsive proposal obtaining the highest score will not be necessarily selected.

    Artists should note that all contracts are subject to PCH’s internal approvals process, which includes a requirement to approve funding in the amount of any proposed contract. Notwithstanding that an artist may have been recommended for contract award, issuance of any contract will be contingent upon internal approval. If such approval is not given, no contract will be awarded.
