Academic Programs and Support Services

The government authority located in Calgary, Alberta, requires a comprehensive review and strategic alignment of its college's academic programs and support services. The agency is seeking to solve operational inefficiencies and align its offerings with current educational demands. To achieve this, the selected contractor must analyze post-secondary trends, program supply, enrolment demand, and operational models that support academic success and service efficiency. The scope of work requires the development of a services alignment plan ensuring that seventy percent of expenses for non-academic activities directly support the student journey. Additionally, the agency requires a program and services optimization plan detailing which programs and services to launch, revise, consolidate, or suspend and terminate based on the initial review. The performance of these services may occur onsite or offsite over a contract period of two years. Only organizations based in Canada are eligible to bid on this opportunity. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is currently looking for proposals to determine the cost. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this procurement no later than June 22, 2026.
