Media Monitoring Services

The agency is seeking a vendor to provide comprehensive media monitoring, analysis, and reporting services. This initiative solves the agency's need for systematic tracking of print, digital, and broadcast sources across Canada, alongside major United States sources and international online news. The requested scope includes complete, full-text, and unpaywalled access to all major Toronto and national daily newspapers, as well as full-text or auto-transcribed content from major English-language Canadian broadcast networks. The selected vendor must provide access to a media monitoring and analysis tool featuring a keyword-based archival search function, exportable metadata, and analytical capabilities. This tool will support keyword-based searches that differ from the keywords used to generate the daily deliverables. The agency requires a daily email newsletter from Monday to Friday containing clippings, media monitoring results, a table of contents, and links to coverage with the title, outlet, byline, reach, and a short summary. Eligibility is restricted to onshore vendors located in Canada, and the performance of the work must take place onsite. The agency is establishing a contract period of one year. Bidders must submit any questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 24, 2026. Responses may be submitted digitally via email or online, and the agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget.
