Public Services and Procurement Canada requires a Request for Supply Arrangement (RFSA).

The work under this Supply Arrangement includes construction services related to environmental remediation, abatement and storage tank work, on an "As and when requested basis".

The Supply arrangement is intended to last for three (3) years and covers all 4 provinces within Atlantic Canada.

The Supply Arrangement will remain valid for a period of three years or until such time as Canada no longer considers them to be advantageous to use them.

The period for awarding contracts under the Supply Arrangement begins on the start date of the Supply Arrangement.

A supply arrangement is a non-binding arrangement between Canada and pre-qualified suppliers that allows departments to award contracts and solicit bids from a pool of pre-qualified suppliers for specific requirements within the scope of the supply arrangement.

The intent of a supply arrangement is to establish a framework to permit expeditious processing of individual bid solicitations, which result in legally binding contracts for the services described in those bid solicitations.
