EREP: Portable Multi-Cassette Skimmer Package (Small)

On behalf of the CCG, Public Works and Government Services (PWGSC) is procuring small portable multi-cassette skimmer packages and associated products and services. The skimmer constitutes a portable, buoyant device that uses oleophilic cassette modules to recover spilled oil from water. These cassette modules are easily interchangeable to allow the response effort to be optimized according to the type(s) of spilled oil (i.e., oils ranging in viscosity from diesel to heavy fuel oil). The CCG regularly uses small portable skimmers in sheltered and protected waters to fulfill their ER obligations. The entire requirement and the evaluation criteria details can be found in the Solicitation.

This procurement is part of the Environmental Response Equipment (ERE) Program for the CCG, and forms part of the Oceans Protection Plan announced in November 2016. Under the ERE Program, CCG is renewing its suite of environmental response (ER) equipment, ensuring a robust and strategic national response capability. The ERE Program will replace aging ER equipment and potentially introduce new response technologies to over 80 locations across Canada; this objective will be realized through approximately 50 to 100 unique equipment procurements.

This procurement is subject to the Nunavut Agreement (also referred to as Nunavut Land Claims Agreement), Inuvialuit Final Agreement, and Gwich’in Comprehensive Land Claim Agreement. 
The Federal Contractors Program (FCP) for employment equity applies to this procurement; refer to Part 5 - Certifications and Additional Information, Part 6 - Resulting Contract Clauses and the annex titled Federal Contractors Program for Employment Equity - Certification.
