The District School Board of Niagara is building a roster of roofing contractors for future capital projects. - Government buyer: District School Board of Niagara (DSBN), Capital Project Division. - Procurement: Prequalification of roofing contractors for future project quotations and tenders in two categories: - Category A: Medium projects estimated at $100,001–$600,000. - Category B: Large projects estimated above $600,000. - Requested services: Roof replacements, additions, roofing for new schools, major repairs, and removal and replacement of reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC); other roofing repairs and services may also be requested. - Expected roster: DSBN anticipates qualifying approximately 15–20 contractors per category, but may adjust that number. Prequalification does not guarantee work. - Future awards: For Category A projects estimated at $100,001–$200,000, at least three suitable prequalified contractors will be invited to quote. For projects above $200,000, all prequalified firms in the applicable category will be invited to tender. Awards are generally planned for the lowest-cost bidder. - Notable requirements: Bonding is required for Category B work and may be required for Category A work. Contractors may be asked to demonstrate available labour, equipment, supervision, and scheduling resources within three business days. DSBN may limit awards based on contractor capacity or use other procurement processes for specialized work. - OEMs and vendors: No OEMs, manufacturers, or vendors are named; this opportunity is for roofing contractor services.

Representative work includes roof replacements, additions, new schools, major repairs, and RAAC removal and replacement. The prequalification term is January 1, 2027 to December 31, 2030; the stated project budget threshold is greater than $100,001.
