| Work Detail |
Infrastructure Ontario, on behalf of the Ministry of the Solicitor General, has issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for teams to deliver the Quinte Detention Centre Expansion project.
The RFQ is the first step in the process to select a team to deliver the project. Submissions will be reviewed to shortlist teams with the required construction experience applicable to this project, as well as the financial capacity to deliver a project of this size and complexity. Shortlisted teams will then be invited to respond to a Request for Proposals, which is expected to be released in the summer of 2025.
The Quinte Detention Centre Expansion Project is being delivered using a Design-Bid-Build model. The architect and engineers of record, under contract to Infrastructure Ontario, are completing the design documents. This RFQ is to select a contractor to deliver the project based on these designs.
