SA SHIP REPAIRS HALIFAX HARBOUR
E6HAL-160002/A
Public Services and Procurement Canada has a requirement, to establish a list of pre-qualified suppliers that will be used by the Halifax office of PWGSC to permit processing of individual bid solicitations and award subsequent for ship repair contracts within the limits of Halifax Harbour, Nova Scotia.
A supply arrangement (SA) is a non-binding arrangement between Canada and a pre-qualified supplier that allows departments and agencies to awardcontracts and solicit bids from a pool of pre-qualified suppliers for specific requirements within the scope of the SA.
An SA is not a contract for the provision of the goods and services described in it and neither party is legally bound, as a result of signing a supply arrangement alone. The intent of a supply arrangement is to establish a framework to permit expeditious processing of individual bid solicitations, which result in legally binding contracts for the goods and services described in those bid solicitations.
For the purpose of this SA; alongside ship repairs/maintenance projects are described as PWGSC contracted ship repair activities/maintenance periods of a specified duration that will be undertaken at the user’s selected locationwithin the boundaries of Halifax Harbour, in Nova Scotia. It is expected that the majority of the contracts awarded from this Supply Arrangement will be on behalf of the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) and that the work will be undertaken at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography in Bedford, Nova Scotia.
Exclusion
The SA will not be used by PWGSC to enter into contract for any Department of National Defense requirements within the boundaries of HMC Dockyard.
The Supply Arrangement has no defined end-date and will remain valid until such time as Canada no longer considers it to be advantageous to use it.
This requirement is subject to the provisions of the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT).
