What is the typical contract value for New Brunswick snow tenders?
New Brunswick municipal snow contracts range from small-municipality (50–200 km routes at $250,000–$1.2M annual) to mid-size municipality (200–800 km at $1.2M–$6M) to large urban (800–3,000 km at $6M–$28M). Total New Brunswick annual procurement is approximately $16M+ across 3 live opportunities. Larger contracts typically require multi-year terms (3–5 years), performance bonds at 10 % of annual value, and demonstrated multi-season operating history.
What insurance is required to bid New Brunswick snow tenders?
Standard minimums are $5M general liability + $2M commercial vehicle for small-and-mid municipalities, scaling to $10M GL for large urban municipalities. Most tenders also require a performance bond at 10 % of annual contract value, issued by a licensed surety. Wage compliance under provincial prevailing wage statutes is typical. For contractors building toward municipal work, the path is to first hold $5M GL on commercial accounts, build a 2–3 year documented operating history, then pursue performance bonding through a specialty surety broker.
When do New Brunswick snow tenders post?
Most New Brunswick tenders post between March and August for the following winter (Nov–Apr) contract year. Early bird tenders for large multi-year contracts can post as early as January. Award decisions typically issue between June and October. Performance dates: Dec 1 → Mar 31. snow.ca flags posting dates and award decision dates for every active listing on the tender board.
