BRIEF DESCRIPTION

The Centre de services scolaires des Grandes-Seigneuries (CSSDGS) wishes to mandate a firm offering professional services in building architecture to produce a building condition report and/or plan asset maintenance work at École primaire des Moussaillons, École primaire Notre-Dame-Saint-Joseph - Pavillon Saint-Joseph and École primaire Piché-Dufrost.

For École des Moussaillons, a building condition report was completed in 2023 by architectural professionals only. The various interventions are grouped together in the present call for tenders, with the aim of carrying out the work in phases. The work currently being evaluated includes various interventions affecting the building's exterior envelope, roofing, interior finishes, and mechanical and electrical components. The exact scope and scale of the work will need to be confirmed by a complementary building condition report. The various interventions are grouped within this call for tenders in order to proceed with the work in phases.

For École Notre-Dame-Saint-Joseph - Pavillon Saint-Joseph, no building condition report has recently been completed. The exact scope and scale of the work will therefore have to be confirmed by a full building condition report. The project currently calls for a package of work to rehabilitate the building envelope and replace the mechanical and electrical systems. The project also includes site rehabilitation work (drainage, pavement replacement, etc.) The various interventions are grouped together in this call for tenders with a view to phasing the work.

For the Piché-Dufrost school, no building condition report has been carried out recently. The exact scope and scale of the work will therefore have to be confirmed by a full building condition report. At present, the project calls for repairs to the roof, building envelope and interior finishes. In addition, the project includes asbestos removal, replacement of the boiler and removal of the existing oil tank, and replacement of the electrical inlet. Site rehabilitation work is also planned (drainage, pavement replacement, etc.). The various interventions are grouped together in the present call for tenders with a view to phasing the work.

The selection process will lead to the choice of a multidisciplinary team in architecture, mechanical/electrical engineering and civil/structural engineering, with whom the CSSDGS will enter into a contract to carry out the present mandate.

In summary, the SERVICE PROVIDER must first produce a building condition report (BCR), followed by an asset maintenance master plan (AMMP) to confirm the scope of the work based on the BCR and the program established by the CSSDGS, and plan the sequence of the various phases of work to be scheduled. It then draws up plans and specifications, and carries out services during construction, applying best practices in project planning and execution.

Depending on the PDMA's planning, it is possible that the SERVICE PROVIDER will carry out the plans and specifications and perform the services during construction for only a portion of the planned work, since the totality of the work may be spread over a period longer than the duration of this contract. The scope and value of the work that may be carried out during the term established in the SERVICE PROVIDER'S contract will be confirmed by the CSSDGS based on the phasing established in the PDMA.

CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE

Services are required from the issuance of the purchase order, expected around November 2024, until final acceptance of the works covered by this contract by the CSSDGS.

DURATION OF CONTRACT

The Contract expires after a period of FIVE (5) year(s) from the date of its entry into force.

OPTION

The Contract does not include a renewal option.

TENDER GUARANTEE

No bid security is required for this call for tenders.

PERFORMANCE BOND

No performance bonds are required for this invitation to tender.

PANDEMIC-RELATED MODIFICATIONS - CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)

By submitting its bid during the COVID-19 period, the TENDER is aware of the government measures and economic context in effect on the day of submission. It will therefore not be possible for it to invoke these measures as a case of force majeure in order to avoid its obligations.

It is possible, however, that additional government measures or new unforeseeable events may occur after the contract has been awarded, and thus affect completion times.

In such a case, the PUBLIC BODY and the SERVICE PROVIDER will negotiate in good faith.
