Consultant Services, Climate Change Risk Assessment

The Halifax International Airport Authority (HIAA) is seeking consulting services for a Climate Change Risk Assessment project update at Halifax Stanfield International Airport. This procurement opportunity is designed to solicit proposals from qualified consultants who can conduct a comprehensive risk assessment related to climate change impacts on airport infrastructure and operations. Interested proponents must submit detailed proposals that demonstrate expertise in climate risk evaluation, environmental assessment, and airport infrastructure resilience. The solicitation requires consultants to provide a thorough analysis of potential climate-related vulnerabilities, including potential environmental risks, infrastructure challenges, and adaptive strategies. Proposals are due by September 4, 2025, with an initial posting date of August 18, 2025. Prospective bidders should carefully review the full request for proposal documentation to understand the specific technical requirements, submission guidelines, and evaluation criteria for this consulting engagement.

While the provided documentation does not explicitly detail set-aside designations or vendor restrictions, typical government procurements often include provisions for small businesses, local enterprises, or disadvantaged business enterprises. The absence of specific budget range information suggests that pricing and scope will be determined through the competitive proposal process. Potential respondents should be prepared to demonstrate significant technical capabilities in climate risk assessment, airport infrastructure planning, and environmental engineering. The project appears to require advanced analytical skills, detailed reporting capabilities, and a comprehensive understanding of climate change impacts on transportation infrastructure. Consultants with prior experience in airport climate resilience studies, environmental risk modeling, and adaptive infrastructure planning will likely be viewed most favorably in the evaluation process.
