Tendered Contracts
With
a projected construction cost of over $1 billion, the Wuskwatim
Generating Station and related Transmission Project is one of
the largest construction projects currently underway in Manitoba.
Most of the work will be awarded through open tenders to qualified
contractors. A variety of tendering opportunities will be available
for bid as they are required over the six-year project life span.
Some contracts needed for initial parts of the project have already
been awarded.
WPLP
has no direct role for issuing contracts, since these are being
handled by Manitoba Hydro. Information on Wuskwatim contract
tendering is available on the Manitoba
Hydro Tendering Opportunities web page, including a designated
contact for each tender.
Direct-negotiated Contracts with NCN
In
addition to open tenders, there are a number of direct-negotiated
contracts valued at about $100 million for qualified NCN businesses
or joint-venture partnerships.
These include:
- Access road contract
- Security contract
- Catering contract
- Cross-cultural training and on-site counselling contract
- Main camp sewer and water contract
- Site preparation contract
- Transmission-line clearing contract.
