Summary of Feedback and Outcomes from the Industry Engagement Process for Letter of Interest K8A45-160866/B which was published on 2 June 2016 and closed 14 June 2016. The Engagement was undertaken following the cancellation of solicitation K8A45-160866/A.
The purpose of the Industry Engagement was threefold:
a) to provide Participants with general information about the requirement;
b) solicit feedback from Participants about their capability to undertake the requirement based on the draft Request for Proposal; and,
c) consult with Participants on ways to improve the solicitation, and increase accessibility and fairness to all potential suppliers.
Participants were encouraged to ask questions and provide comments with the objective to receive feedback that may be incorporated into the solicitation document, creating a procurement that is fair and transparent to suppliers, enhances competition, and results in best value to Canada.
The publication of this document and resulting RFP effectively concludes the Industry Engagement process. The information gathered through this process was considered when finalizing the procurement strategy and should meet the needs of the Government of Canada and be compatible with Industry standard practices.
