The objective of the RFP is to award a Professional Services Agreement for Prime Consulting Services to one (1) qualified prime consultant for the provision of design and prime consulting services for the University’s new School of Medicine, to be located in the City of Brampton. The work will be performed in the following three (3) phases:

• Phase One: Site Master Plan, Program Validation, Concept Design and Municipal/AHJ Approvals;
• Phase Two: Detailed Design and modifications for Site Plan Application (Notice of Approval Conditions); and
• Phase Three:  Construction, Commissioning and Warranty Period.

As the development strategy for design and construction is not yet determined, the Successful Proponent’s role in the Project following Phase One may change depending on the method of contract or development decided upon by the University. The evolution of the Project may result in changes to the Successful Proponent’s Work, including but not limited to, the approach of the design assignment, the nature and/or quantity of the deliverables, the form of the final agreement and/or the associated fees.

The University requests that any prospective suppliers not contact the City of Brampton, or other TMU employees about the SoM project.
Expressions of interest in the procurement, questions and/or inquiries regarding the Project may be sent via email, in writing and in English to the NPP Contact listed below:
