Description

Employment and Social Development Canada requires secure warehousing, storage, inventory management, relocation, packing, crating, transportation, and distribution services for audiovisual, video conferencing, information technology equipment, and related peripherals. The contractor must operate from a single warehouse in Canada within 150 kilometres of either the CN Tower in Toronto or Parliament Hill in Ottawa, maintain up to 30,000 cubic feet of available capacity, and provide environmental conditions of 0°C to 35°C and 5% to 70% relative humidity with continuous monitoring and alerts. The contractor will relocate approximately 336 pallets and crates, maintain a web-enabled warehouse management system, provide inventory and reporting services, and coordinate tracked shipments throughout Canada, including remote locations. Amendment 002 confirms that this is a new requirement with no incumbent contract, anticipates approximately 26 shipments annually, permits 53-foot tractor-trailer access at the current warehouse, and requires the initial transition to be completed no later than November 30, 2026. The amendment also removes the requirement for warehouse photographs and physical-security details from mandatory criterion M2 while retaining the requirement for the proposed warehouse address and environmental-compliance details.
