General Contractor - Prequalification

Ottawa Community Housing (OCH) build and preserve strategic priority includes the delivery of 300 – 500 residential units per year.  To support delivery of this strategy, OCH requires the services of many external consultants and contractors within the architecture, engineering and construction fields including qualified General Contractors (GC’s).

This Request for Prequalification (RFPQ) is issued by OCH to establish a roster of up to twelve (12) GCs who will be eligible to respond to subsequent Request for Tenders or Request for Proposals (RFxs) on an as-and-when required basis for new developments of multi-residential affordable housing. 

The resulting prequalifications will remain in effect for an initial two-year term after which they will renew automatically and indefinitely for subsequent 12-month terms until such time that the GC withdraws or OCH provides notice of termination.

Although the prequalification will be valid for any construction method, the anticipated form of construction contract and project delivery method is typically CCDC2‑2020 Stipulated Price Contract with OCH supplementary conditions.

This is a prequalification only; there is no commitment or obligation from OCH to proceed with any projects.
