The Québec government is seeking a progressive design-build partner to deliver a new courthouse in Rouyn-Noranda. - Government buyer: Société québécoise des infrastructures (SQI), acting as project manager for the Québec government, for the benefit of the Ministère de la Justice (MJQ), Ministère de la Sécurité intérieure (MSI), and Directeur des poursuites criminelles et pénales (DPCP). - Requested service: Design-build partnership for courthouse construction in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region; no product part numbers or quantities are specified. - Delivery approach: SQI and the selected contractor will work together during a validation phase to assess technical and financial parameters and project risks, then produce a validation report for SQI's consideration. - Notable requirements: Proposals include specified firm monetary commitments rather than a single overall lump-sum price. SQI may accept or reject the validation report and decide whether to proceed. - OEMs and vendors: No OEMs, contractors, or other vendors are named in the notice.
Description
The Société québécoise des infrastructures (SQI) is seeking candidates for a progressive design-build partnership to construct the Rouyn-Noranda courthouse in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region. This is a qualification call, with the four highest-scoring candidates invited to a subsequent call for proposals; one proponent will ultimately be selected. The selected contractor and SQI will collaboratively validate technical and financial parameters and risks, and submit a validation report that SQI may accept or reject. The estimated contract amount is CAD 100,000,000, though the notice states that the amount is not displayed; submissions must be delivered physically to SQI by December 15, 2026.
