NATURE OF REQUIREMENTS
This is not a bid solicitation. This Request for Information
(RFI) will not result in the award of any contract; therefore,
potential suppliers of any goods or services described in this
RFI should not earmark stock or facilities, nor allocate
resources, as a result of any information contained in this RFI.
This RFI will not result in the creation of any source list;
therefore, whether or not any potential supplier responds to
this RFI will not preclude that supplier from participating in
any future procurement. Also, the procurement of any of the
goods and services described in this RFI will not necessarily
follow this RFI. This RFI is simply intended to solicit feedback
from industry with respect to the contents of this RFI. This
RFI has excerpts that may or may not be used in the Request for
Proposal (RFP) at a future date. This RFI has also provided a
Draft Statement of Work (SOW), which may be used in a future
procurement, for information purposes. The Government of Canada
will not reimburse any respondent for expenses incurred in
responding to this RFI.

BACKGROUND
PWGSC's Alternative Forms of Delivery Directorate (AFD) is
preparing to issue two or more Real Property Requests for
Proposals (RFP). Two initially planned RFPs are named and
referred to as:

-Real Property 1 (RP-1), which represents the solicitation for
Contracts across Canada that provide a range of Property
Management Services, Project Delivery Services and Optional
Services

-Real Property 2 (RP-2), which represents the solicitation for
Property Management Services, Project Delivery Services and
Optional Services related to the Carling Campus, Tunney's
Pasture and Graham Spry Building within the National Capital
Region.

Note that PWGSC reserves the right to change the scope and
number of facilities to be included in RP-2. The AFD Directorate
will make an effort to ensure there is consistency in the
language used for both solicitations. Due to the size and
complexity and timing, RP-2 will be released before RP-1. As
such, we seek industry feedback for RP-2. Feedback, if
appropriate, may also be considered in the development of the
RP-1 strategy and procurement documents.

OBJECTIVE OF RFI
PWGSC has released this RFI to elicit feedback from industry by
sharing some draft content of the upcoming RFP for RP-2 Property
Management Services, Project Delivery Services and Optional
Services related to the Carling Campus Tunney's Pasture and
Graham Spry Building within the National Capital Region. The
RFP will be structured in the same way as this RFI. Respondents
who wish to comment on any aspect of the "Draft RFP content"
provided are asked to please ensure they use specific references
to the article numbers and paragraphs and address all comments
to the Contracting Authority via email
(t••••••••@••••••••.••.ca).

PWGSC will consider all comments from industry in determining
the final RFP. All comments are required by the closing date of
this RFI, however, respondents are encouraged to send comments
to the Contracting Authority as early as possible to expedite
the release date of the RFP. PWGSC anticipates the release of
the RFP in August 2012.

The RFP content remains under development. Sections as indicated
below are provided for information and to obtain feedback.

1) Security requirements for an ensuing RFP will require
"Secret" at bid closing. If you do not currently hold a
Designated Organization Screening (DOS) or Facility Security
Clearance (FSC) at "Secret" level and wish to participate in
bidding, you are asked to contact Canadian Industrial Security
Directorate (CISD) at
http://ssi-iss.tpsgc-pwgsc.gc.ca/ssi-iss/org/org-eng.…

2) Contract Financial Security - Consider the amounts shown and
comment accordingly.

3) Bid Instructions - Bid submission requirements. The dollar
amount required for bid security. This amount will be required
to submit a bid.

4) Basis of Payment - Basis of Payment - A summary is presented
for comments.

5) Evaluation Criteria - Please note the different approach to
evaluation from previous similar RFPs and the consideration
given to Scenarios. It is anticipated that proposals will be
evaluated against criteria based on both technical merit and
financial merit. Bidders will be asked to provide a technical
response to a criterion without cost data and subsequently the
same technical criterion with cost data. This approach will
allow PWGSC to evaluate the bidder's ability to demonstrate how
they will provide best value to Canada. The Scenarios will
allow PWGSC to evaluate the bidder's ability to demonstrate
their approach to situations.

6) Insurance Requirement - Consider the forms of policy required
for Wrap-Up General Liability and Blanket Builder's Risk and
comment accordingly.

Please note that PWGSC will consider all comments, but reserves
the right to do what is in the best interest of Canada.
