Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Fisheries and Oceans Canada, procured through Public Services and Procurement Canada
Delivery parties
Superior Contracting Ltd. - prime contractor under EB144-222071/001/PWA, Dredging, disposal, floating-dock, steel, concrete, rock, electrical, survey and marine-plant lower tiers - not named in the cited federal records
Contract route
PSPC ran solicitation EB144-222071/A as a two-phase competitive procurement: Phase One qualified suppliers and Phase Two sought financial bids from the qualified list. CanadaBuys records lowest-price selection, an award to Superior Contracting Ltd. on 14 October 2022 and a CAD 1,264,230 total under contract EB144-222071/001/PWA.
Execution window
CanadaBuys records the contract award on 14 October 2022 and expiry on 31 March 2023. Those dates define the published contract window but do not establish site possession, continuous marine access, substantial completion, final inspection, harbour release or owner acceptance.
Works package
The tender covers demolition and removal of the existing timber-pile wharf; harbour-bottom dredging and disposal at designated sites; repair of the breakwater end; raising the breakwater with new fill and slope protection; upland filling, grading and slope protection; floating docks, strongarms and gangways; concrete abutments and retaining walls; and replacement electrical power, lighting and associated equipment. Public records reviewed do not quantify dredged volume, disposal route, dock modules, gangways, strongarms, concrete, armour stone, fill or electrical assets.
Marine interfaces
Delivery couples dredging and disposal in a working small harbour with demolition of a timber marine structure, breakwater elevation works, shoreline grading, new floating access and electrical reinstatement. The unresolved marine chain includes dredging plant, sediment controls, disposal acceptance, temporary berthing, bathymetric surveys, breakwater geometry, dock anchoring and flotation checks, gangway gradients, concrete inspection, electrical commissioning and navigation reopening.
Commercial evidence boundary
CanadaBuys reports CAD 1,264,230 as the total contract value. No public value split separates demolition, dredging, disposal, breakwater rock and fill, floats, strongarms, gangways, concrete, electrical work, mobilisation or survey. Amendments, certified progress, lower-tier awards, claims, retention and final payment remain undisclosed.
