The Ministry of SaskBuilds and Procurement, in collaboration with the Saskatchewan Health Authority, is inviting proposals for space within Saskatoon. We are particularly interested in submissions from establishments already or previously setup as Family Medicine Clinic Spaces with close proximity to an SHA Primary Health Care Facility.

Required space specifications include:

• Space must be wheelchair accessible, within walking distance of public transit and within Saskatoon city limits.
• Access to a minimum of 3 clinic rooms, 2 offices, a meeting/board room, a reception/waiting area, soiled & clean utility rooms, a staff breakroom, a medical supply closet, a janitorial closet and separate washrooms for clients and staff.
• Proposed space may include SHA dedicated/exclusive use or shared use within an existing clinic with a set number of rooms dedicated to SHA use. Proposals for shared use should include:
  • Full access to existing facilities, including all medical equipment, medical supplies, security services, maintenance provisions, and other necessary amenities.
  • Integration to existing reception areas (including existing provider’s staff) for seamless workflow and patient navigation.
  • Access to a minimum of 2 touchdown work stations with internet access.
• Capacity for a minimum of 9 staff: 3 Nurse Practitioners, 3 Registered Nurses, 1 Physician, 1 Office Admin and 1 Assessor Coordinator
• On-site parking access required.
• Space should be available to public Monday-Friday, 10am – 6pm, with 24/7 staff access.
• Anticipated Start Date: December 1, 2024

As part of the Saskatoon Capacity Action Plan, this clinic aims to offer follow-up care for patients lacking a Primary Care Practitioner, thereby decreasing emergency room revisits and readmissions. Rapid access clinic space is crucial to address the shortage of accessible clinics in Saskatoon's network.

We welcome detailed proposals from parties offering properties that meet or exceed these standards.

The Ministry of SaskBuilds and Procurement will receive secure electronic proposals until 2:00 PM, Saskatchewan Time, on October 16th, 2024. Submissions will be evaluated based on established requirements and instructions. Proposals must be emailed and comply with the instructions provided in the circular.

Each proposal will undergo thorough evaluation, and the Ministry reserves the right to reject any or all proposals at its discretion.

Please direct all secure electronic proposals to csrealtyrfp@gov.sk.ca.
