Bid Opportunities

If you would like to provide goods and services to the District, please review How to do Business with Us. To purchase a printed copy of a Bid Document you must contact the specific department that has issued the documents, and some Bid Opportunities may also be available on Biddingo.

The District purchases a variety of goods and services, many of which are purchased through a competitive procurement process. As a municipal government it is our responsibility to ensure that tax dollars are spent in a transparent, responsible, and fair manner while ensuring the maximum benefit for each tax dollar spent.

The District proudly operates The Pines Long-Term Care Home, located in Bracebridge. A variety of services are offered to the residents by qualified providers who are contracted by The Pines.  These services may be paid directly by the resident, covered by OHIP,  the Ontario Drug Benefit (ODB) and/or the LTC Facility Funding Formula.  Opportunities for contractors for services such as Hairstylist, Foot Care Provider, Physician, Dental Hygiene, Optometrist, and others may be posted to this web page when available.  For more information on The Pines, visit The Pines Long-Term Care Home webpage.      

Closed and Awarded Tenders, RFQs and RFPs will remain posted for two months at which time they are available to view in Awarded and Closed Tenders, RFQs, and RFPs.

Please note:  there may be fees associated with the provision of documents by the District as outlined in our General Fees and Charges By-law 2017-31, effective January 1, 2018.
