  • Made-In-Bc Ferries the Economic Benefits of Local Ship Procurement
    MADE-IN-BC FERRIES THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF LOCAL SHIP PROCUREMENT by Blair Redlin and David Fairey March 2014 MADE-IN-BC FERRIES: THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF LOCAL SHIP PROCUREMENT 1 PART 1 Introduction Institutional procurement is a powerful, and often underutilized, economic development strategy that can positively impact “value added” economic sectors. How and where procurement dollars are spent can have important economic effects.1 Beyond the service sector, British Columbia’s economy relies significantly on natural resources, with 7.5 per cent of provincial GDP and 3.1 per cent of provincial employment in those sectors. BC’s value added sector – primary processing beyond hewing wood and drawing water – represents an additional 4.1 per cent of GDP and 3.6 per cent of employment. While 2012 manufacturing GDP was 7.2 per cent of total GDP and manufacturing employment was 7.7 per cent of total employment, BC Statistics tables show overall manufacturing trending downward 12 per cent since 2007.2 In July 2013, BC Ferries announced it will put three new intermediate class ferries into service by 2016/2017. The corporation is seeking a fixed price design/ build contract for the three new ferries and hopes to use liquefied natural gas to fuel the new vessels.3 BC Ferries has an opportunity to contribute to BC’s economic development through its procurement choices. As an institution providing a public service, with public dollars, it can be argued that BC Ferries has an additional responsibil- ity to consider the economic development impact of its procurement spending. Analysis by Stokes Economic Consulting, using the Centre for Spatial Eco- nomics provincial economic model, shows the economic advantage of building these ferries in BC: for every 100 jobs created in a BC shipyard or repair industry, 1 Tony Pringle and Robert Duffy, Buying Local: Purchasing Tools for Forward Thinking Institutions, Columbia Institute, 2013.

  • BC Page1 BC Ferries Departure Bay Passenger Facilities
    BC Ferries Departure Bay Passenger Facilities | Nanaimo, BC Clive Grout Architect Inc. This BC Ferries’ project consists of a 28,000 sq ft building which includes ticketing and arrivals hall, baggage pick up and drop off, departures/arrivals corridor, retail shops, food court, washrooms, waiting lounge and escalator connection to the ship’s load/unload gangway. The project also includes an exterior courtyard and children’s area. Retail and food facilities are accessible to both foot and vehicle passengers. Wood was an excellent choice for ceiling and exterior fascia material as the architects desired to introduce a signature material to the landside facilities symbolic of the land and mountains of coastal B.C. as a contrast to the experience of the sea on the ships. In creating an image for the new passenger facilities, the architects selected the warmth and comfort of wood expressed on the ceiling, leaving the floors for utilitarian finishes and the walls for full glass to integrate visually with the spectacular setting on the edge of the water. The dramatic shape of the building and its roof, dictated by the site planning constraints, is enhanced by the prominence of the wood panels. The architects took two key steps to ensure the long-term durability of the fir veneer in coastal B.C.’s sea air and rain environment. The fascias are designed to slope sharply from the edge, keeping them out of the line of the direct rain. The entire assembly was initially rigorously and successfully tested by Forintek Canada for boiling water emersion, dry peel and room temperature delamination, giving the client and architect confidence in the application.

    July 2, 2020 Mr. Jason Barabash Vice President, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary British Columbia Ferry Services Inc. Suite 500, 1321 Blanshard Street Victoria, BC V8W 0B7 Dear Mr. Barabash: Re: Coastal Class Vessels Quarter-Life Upgrade – Filing for a Capital Expenditure Under the Coastal Ferry Act This refers to your letter dated June 25, 2020 requesting procedural direction from the Commissioners with respect to the Coastal Class vessels’ quarter-life upgrades or refits and the thresholds established by Order 19-03 for submitting an application under Section 55(5) of the Coastal Ferry Act for approval of a major capital expenditure. Order 19-03 states that for purposes of Section 55(5): “1. Any capital expenditure for any new vessel or mid-life upgrade to a vessel (“Vessel Expenditure”) is a major capital expenditure if the expenditure exceeds $50 million inclusive of vessel related component programs and interest during construction; 2. Any capital expenditure for new terminals, terminal upgrades, information technology systems or other non-vessel capital expenditures (“Non-Vessel Expenditure”) is a major capital expenditure if the expenditure exceeds $25 million, inclusive of non-vessel related component programs and interest during construction; 3. In the case where a single project (“Project”) planned by a ferry operator includes capital expenditures of a type referenced in both paragraphs (1) and (2) above, the entire capital expenditure for the Project will be a major capital expenditure if either the Vessel Expenditure or Non-Vessel Expenditure exceeds the applicable threshold;” In your letter you have indicated that BC Ferries intends to take a bundling approach for the procurement of the quarter-life upgrades for the three Coastal Class vessels scheduled for Fiscal 2023, 2024 and 2025 respectively.
