Bird Construction Inc. has announced the award of five new projects with a combined value of approximately $470 million. These projects include Bird’s first Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) model in Atlantic Canada, two new buildings for Ontario Power Generation’s (OPG) nuclear program, civil infrastructure work with the Government of B.C., two significant multi-year agreements in the industrial maintenance sector and a recreation centre redevelopment project in B.C. Bird, in a joint venture, secured its first IPD contract in Atlantic Canada. The IPD team will deliver a 100,000 sq. ft. combined office and maintenance depot, designed to achieve Zero Carbon. The $70 million facility will be partially powered by a 260KW solar array, with plans for expansion to 600KW. Through the Indigenous-led Makhos Bird Joint Venture (MBJV), Bird was awarded contracts for the design and construction of two buildings for OPG, supporting ongoing nuclear operations and refurbishment activities. These projects, totaling approximately $120 million, highlight the strength of Bird and MBJV’s relationship with OPG and Bird’s Indigenous partners. Bird’s subsidiary, Jacob Bros Construction, has been awarded the Highway 1 Bus-On-Shoulder Lanes project by the Government of B.C. This $55 million project will widen nearly four kilometres of Highway 1, adding continuous bus-on-shoulder lanes to enhance rapid transit services and reduce congestion. The project also includes a new pedestrian and cyclist bridge, ecological restoration works, and upgraded bus stops. Bird’s industrial maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) team has secured two significant contract awards totaling approximately $100 million. The first award is a five-year MSA renewal with a long-term client, expanding Bird’s general contracting services. The second award is a multi-year agreement with a blue-chip client in Eastern Canada. These awards align with Bird’s strategic plan for MRO, focusing on organic growth with existing clients and expanding into new regions and markets. Bird has completed the validation stage on an IPD project to redevelop a major recreational centre in Kelowna, B.C. The completed facility will increase athletic and aquatic space, offer more programs, and include a dedicated childcare space. Bird’s portion of the project is expected to be approximately $125 million. “Bird continues to win work across our industrial, buildings, and infrastructure businesses in key strategic market sectors that remain economically resilient, building on the Company’s strong client relationships and forging new ones,” stated Teri McKibbon, President & CEO of Bird. “These awards highlight the scope of Bird’s capabilities, adding to the Company’s combined backlog of nuclear, healthcare, horizontal infrastructure, and industrial maintenance work, while expanding Bird’s expertise in collaborative contracts.”
