Amendment 1
This amendment is raised to revise the Request for Standing Offers
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Government of Canada requires the provision of a full range of graphic design services including printed and imprinted design, digital design, and exhibit and display design to meet the needs of the Government of Canada on an "as and when requested basis".
These services will be provided to any Government of Canada department, agency or Crown corporation listed in Schedules I, I.1, II, and III of the Financial Administration Act, R.S., 1985, c. F-11 and any other identified users added to the Standing Offer through amendment. This may include Provinces, Territorial Governments. As a result of this competitive process, Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) will authorize National Master Standing Offers (NMSOs).
Standing Offers are offers from potential Offerors to provide services at prearranged prices, under set terms and conditions, on an "as and when requested basis". No contract exists until a call-up against a Standing Offer is issued by the Identified User specified herein. Individual call-ups against this NMSO cannot exceed $25,000.00. (applicable taxes included)
PWGSC anticipates issuing Standing Offers to all fully qualified non-Aboriginal Offerors, and all fully qualified Offerors under the Set-Aside Program for Aboriginal Business for each Category of service.
Two (2) lists of qualified Offerors (one for Non-Aboriginal and Aboriginal firms, and another for solely Aboriginal firms) will be established for the provision of printed and imprinted design, digital design, and exhibit and display design services.
If the Offeror is either a joint venture consisting of two or more Aboriginal businesses or a joint venture between an Aboriginal business and a non-Aboriginal business, the Offeror will only be considered for both lists if the Offeror meets all of the conditions of the Set Aside Program for Aboriginal Business and none of the firms in the joint venture have also submitted an offer as a single entity.
The period for making call-ups against the Standing Offer is from April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020. If the Standing Offer is authorized for use beyond the initial period, the Offeror Agrees to extend its offer for two (2) additional two (2) year periods, under the same conditions and at the same rates specified in the Standing Offer.
The scope of the services covered by the Standing Offers are detailed in the attached Annex "A" - Statement of Work.
