PROJECT BACKGROUND: The Canmore Nordic Centre is nestled at the foot of Mount Rundle in Alberta's Bow Valley and holds a significant place in Canada's winter sports history. Constructed in 1986, it was developed to host the cross-country skiing, biathlon, and Nordic combined events for the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary. The facility officially opened in 1987, setting a new standard for Nordic ski venues at the time. The existing concrete sidewalks and patios have settled over time and are now uneven and have created tripping and other safety hazards. PROJECT OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this RFQ is to invite vendors who have the necessary qualifications and experience relative to the scope and nature of this project to provide quotes for the purpose of restoring level and safe walking surfaces and filling large cracks in the concrete. This process will eliminate tripping hazards, improve drainage, and restore functionality and aesthetics without the need for full slab replacement. An arrangement with the successful proponent will be established by means of a Contract based on the quotation form attached to this RFQ. 1. All work shall be in accordance with all local and provincial codes and regulations. All work shall be performed by a qualified tradesman, tested and under warranty for a period of one year from acceptance date of work. 2.
