ADVANCE PROCUREMENT NOTICE - NORAD NORTHERN BASING INFRASTRUCTURE
Defence Construction Canada - Atlantic Region
Advance Procurement Notice NORAD NORTHERN BASING INFRASTRUCTURE (NNBI) DEPLOYED OPERATING BASE (DOB) GOOSE BAY (with Security Requirements) Purpose of this Advance Procurement Notice This is not a request for proposals. In the context of the major investments announced by the Government and to foster a proactive partnership with industry, DCC is issuing this Advance Procurement Notice (APN) to inform Design-Builders of an upcoming contract opportunity at the Deployed Operating Base Goose Bay, NL. The purpose of this APN is to allow Design-Builders to assess their capacity and interest in participating, and to prepare adequately for the potential solicitation process, notably by initiating any necessary steps. This is a preliminary notice regarding a potential contract, which includes security requirements. The purpose of this APN is to allow interested Design-Builders to initiate, if required, the sponsorship process to obtain the necessary clearances or security clearances (if applicable). Please note that there is no guarantee that this contract will proceed or that security clearances will be granted within the anticipated timelines or at all as part of the sponsorship process. Description of the Project and Services The Department of National Defence (DND) is investing in infrastructure developments for the North American Aerospace Defence Command (NORAD) Modernization and Continental Defence at the Deployed Operating Base (DOB) Goose Bay (5 Wing Goose Bay), located in Happy Valley–Goose Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador. This infrastructure investment aims to ensure that the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) have the tools they need to achieve their security and sovereignty objectives. These improvements will enable advanced aircraft operations and quick mobilization in the North for NORAD missions. The infrastructure requirements for the DOB Goose Bay (5 Wing Goose Bay) will include the following but are not limited to: • Airfield improvements; • Hangars with aprons and taxiways; • Ammunition compounds; • Fuel facilities; • Accommodations, warehousing, planning, multi-purpose facilities, and support equipment; • Robust IT, Cyber, and Logistics infrastructure. Areas for Elements in GB for the various facility components are as follows. Approximate Areas for Elements in GB Total hangar space - 40,000 m2 Ops Centre - 1,000 m2 Munitions Storage - 600 m2 Security Force Facility - 1,000 m2 Accommodations - 5,000 m2 Admin & Storage facilities - 11,500 m2 Aprons & Taxiways (Rehabilitation/Resurfacing) - 615,000 m2 Aprons & Taxiways (New) - 225,000 m2 Runways (Renewal/Resurfacing) - 275,000 m2 Roads - 50,000 m2 Fire Hall - 2,000 m2 Note: these Areas for Elements are approximate and will be validated further as the project develops. The delivery method for this infrastructure will be a Modified Design Build (MDB) contract, with one MDB contract for the site and an estimated total contract value that may exceed $5B. This multi-year contract consists of the following sequential and/or concurrent phases and are not limited to: • Requirements validation, concept development, market analysis and planning activities. • Design Phase activities. • Construction Phase activities. It is anticipated that the Request for Proposal (RFP) will include detailed evaluation criteria; however, these remain subject to change and will be finalized and fully described in the RFP documentation upon release. At a high level, it is expected that the RFP will assess proponents on demonstrated experience across a range of factors, including northern design and construction experience, experience delivering similar asset types (both within and outside of northern environments), and the integration of design and construction capabilities within a single team. Key personnel requirements will include demonstrated northern experience for certain roles. The evaluation of approach and methodology is expected to consider how proponents plan to successfully deliver projects in northern environments, including logistics, climate, and constructability considerations, as well as their approach to Indigenous participation based on principles of meaningful participation and mitigation of potential adverse effects. In addition to the technical evaluation, a formal interview process will be conducted to further assess team capability to successfully deliver the project in a northern environment. The terms and conditions of the contract will allow for self-performed work by the design-build team. The infrastructure work for Goose Bay is projected to be procured in February 2027. This is conditional on receiving approval to proceed by DND. The Government of Canada is committed to advancing reconciliation and fostering meaningful engagement with Indigenous Peoples. In support of these commitments, DND aims to create opportunities for Indigenous businesses and communities through meaningful subcontracting, employment, and training related to the proposed project. To align with these objectives, the successful proponents will be required to develop an Indigenous Benefits Plan (IBP) as part of the MDB contract. The IBP will outline proposed initiatives and opportunities for Indigenous participation, including subcontracting, employment, and training activities. Contract Award and Anticipated Security Requirements To be eligible for contract award, a Design-Builder will be required to, among other things, actively hold or obtain all required security clearance(s) prior to the date of the award, as further detailed in the solicitation documents. The anticipated security clearance level for this contract is Facility Security Clearance at the level of SECRET Industrial Security Program Sponsorship Defence Construction Canada (DCC) is providing Design-Builders early access to the security clearance application process through sponsorship under its Industrial Security Program (ISP).
