Project anatomy

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Fisheries and Oceans Canada, procured by Public Services and Procurement Canada
Delivery parties
R.J.G. Construction Limited - prime wharf-reconstruction contractor, Marine subcontractors, timber suppliers, concrete suppliers and electrical installers - not publicly identified
Contract route
Solicitation WS4890179101 was issued through CanadaBuys for construction services. The federal contract-history record identifies CW2381330, R.J.G. Construction Limited, a 14 January 2025 award and CAD 3,016,938.75 value. It does not name subcontractors, disclosed amendments, a completion certificate or an accepted final value.
Execution window
CanadaBuys gives 14 January 2025 as the award date and 14 April 2026 as the contract expiry. That period has passed, but no cited owner source establishes physical completion, commissioning, handover or the date on which harbour users could return to the reconstructed workfront.
Works package
The tender scope covers demolition and removal of the existing wharf and associated ladders, structural timbers, reinforced-concrete deck, old concrete foundations, creosote cribwork, cleats, jib-crane foundations and electrical components. The replacement is a treated-timber crib wharf with new structural timber, reinforced-concrete deck and slab, and related fixtures shown in the contract drawings.
Marine interfaces
Delivery depends on demolition sequencing within an operating fishing harbour, marine access, timber-crib founding and ballast, concrete placement, electrical reinstatement and mooring-hardware alignment. The public award does not disclose temporary berthing arrangements, design water level, bathymetry, load criteria, environmental controls or as-built survey and load-acceptance results.
Commercial evidence boundary
The CAD 3.02 million figure is the reported federal contract value for CW2381330, not a harbour-wide investment estimate. No public source reviewed names package-level subcontractors or confirms the final paid value. Follow-on opportunities would require an owner notice for variations, unresolved defects, separate dredging, fendering, electrical work or lifecycle maintenance.
