About this tender

The City of Vancouver intends to enter into an agreement with the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) to partner on the development and deployment of a web-based platform and a centralized embodied carbon database for construction projects. The NRC is leading the public procurement process and has posted the requirements and solicitation documents on CanadaBuys. The platform and database are intended to provide the infrastructure needed to streamline and align project data collection, analysis, and quality control across jurisdictions. They are also meant to support industry innovation and access to data, and to help identify barriers to more material- and cost-efficient construction. The notice does not state the contract duration; it refers readers to the full solicitation documents, which are held on a third-party site. The detailed deliverables, technical requirements, and schedule are therefore not visible on this page.
