Strategic Development Opportunities Analysis Services

The issuing agency is seeking strategic development opportunities analysis services to identify existing and emerging industrial sectors that could generate cargo for the agency and the greater port. The agency requires the analysis to consider energy products, such as oil and oil products, as a potential sector for cargo expansion. Bidders must incorporate the findings of a recently completed study on the potential to tap into containerized trade into this opportunities analysis. The scope of work covers assessing potential cargo types gravitating toward the geographic hinterland and foreland, as well as estimating preliminary cargo volumes and market potential. The agency requires an analysis of synergies between its assets and the assets of the greater port. The final deliverables must include an assessment of opportunity attractiveness versus execution complexity, an assessment of opportunity readiness and likelihood, and a high-level roadmap for implementation and next steps. Eligibility is restricted to onshore Canadian organizations only. The agency requires the performance of the work to take place offsite. Bidders must submit their responses digitally via email or online, and the agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget.
