PROJECT IDENTIFICATION:
Title: Construction Management Services - Laboratories Canada - Ontario Projects
Address: 2620 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), commonly known as Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC), will retain the services of a construction management entity, the Construction Manager (CM), to modernize laboratory facilities as part of its Laboratories Canada (LC) program of work.  
Science Facility laboratories in Mississauga, Sudbury, Guelph and Ottawa may form part of the overall Contract as determined by the priorities of PWGSC’s LC program.  The CM’s base Contract is the laboratory expansion and fit-up of a joint National Research Council (NRC) and Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) facility in Mississauga, Ontario. 
PWGSC will add incremental CM Work and Construction Services to the Contract through Contract option(s) as its Science Partner clients determine their location-specific scope of laboratory modernization.  
PWGSC will retain one design firm, led by a prime consultant, who will provide Architectural and Engineering Services and prepare design solutions for the Work of this Contract.  The Design Team will work collaboratively with the CM and PWGSC’s Departmental Representative (DR).  The CM is required to support the Design Team’s development and analysis of implementation options of the initial Mississauga mandate and each sub-Project, managing the Work sequencing, Cost, and construction of approved design solutions.
Fundamentally, this is a services Contract.  The CM is NOT to behave like a general contractor.  Rather, acting as the Constructor at the Place of the Work, the CM is required to provide the comprehensive services described in the TOR on an ongoing basis and respect PWGSC’s high quality standards throughout all aspects of Cost and time planning, estimating, scheduling, Monitoring and control.  Moreover, the CM is required to provide comprehensive design management services to ensuring ongoing and timely identification and prioritization of the Design Team’s DP production to optimize overall delivery of Project Work.

Construction Management Services Time: Base Contract (Mississauga): The Contractor must perform the services and achieve Substantial Performance of the Work within 28 months following contract award.
Options: Additional time will be granted based on the construction durations for each optional project and when they are exercised.  Projects are to be constructed concurrently and additional time will only be granted if the construction duration for the option to be exercised extends past the construction time already granted under the contract.

This procurement contains a mandatory security requirement.  At bid closing, the Bidder must, at all times during the performance of the Contract/Standing Offer, hold a valid Designated Organization Screening (DOS), issued by the Canadian Industrial Security Directorate (CISD), Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC).
