Regional Individual Standing Offers (RISOs) Hazardous Materials
Assessment- Various Locations (NS, NB, and PEI)

Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) has a
requirement to establish  Regional Individual Standing Offers
(RISOs) for Hazardous Material Assessment at Various Locations
in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island, as per
the Required Services attached.

The services required under these RISOs include: Hazardous
Building Materials Assessment and Inspection, Development of
Hazardous Products Inventories and Management Plans, Development
of Asbestos Abatement Action Plans, Development of Mould
Remediation Action Plans, Development of Scopes of Work and
Contract Specifications for Hazardous Materials
Assessment/Abatement/Disposal Projects, Project Supervision, and
Reporting.  

PWGSC is intending to issue two (2) RISOs in response to this
Request for Standing Offer (RFSO).  Offers will be rated with
regard to the proposed team approach and management of services,
past experience of the Offeror, senior technical specialist
expertise and experience, and project personnel expertise and
experience, as well as the price of the services.    

The two (2) highest ranked offers will be recommended for
issuance of a RISO based on an ideal business distribution
percentage which has been pre-established as follows: 60% of
business volume to the top ranked consultant and 40% of business
volume to the second ranked consultant.  

The total estimated value of these RISOs is estimated to be
$1,000,000.00 (HSTI).  Individual call-up amounts will vary, up
to a maximum of $150,000.00 (HSTI).  A standing offer is an
agreement and not a contract.  Canada does not guarantee that
the full amount, or that any amount, will be called-up on any
resultant standing offer.  

The term for these RISOs will be three (3) years, on an "as and
when required basis." A standing offer is an agreement and  not
a contract.


By submitting an offer, the Offeror certifies that the Offeror
and its Affiliates are in compliance with the provisions as
stated in Section 01 Integrity Provisions - Offer of Standard
Instructions 2006 (2014-06-26).The associated information
required within the Integrity Provisions will assist Canada in
confirming that the certifications are true.
