TITLE
Creation of a Canadian incident database
DESCRIPTION
Public Safety Canada requires a Canadian incident database.
The specific objective of this contract is to support the
creation of a free-access resource to provide unclassified
information to national security researchers, which can be used
to identify patterns and trends in order to improve our
understanding of terrorist/extremist crime in Canada.
This involves creating and hosting an incident database that
would:
(1) be accessible to the public at no cost to the user on a web
site,
(2) be maintained by the host institution without any assumption
of ongoing funding from DRDC or PS,
(3) house source materials in both official languages, as long
as legal and copyright requirements are not violated, and that
housing source materials can be accomplished within the
constraints of time and funding;
(4) find and code English and French language source materials,
(5) build as much as possible on existing data collection work
to avoid duplication of efforts,
(6) involve a collaborative effort between scholars and graduate
students at multiple universities, and
7) focus on data needs relevant to contemporary issues for
Canadian national security pertaining to terrorism and extremist
crime within a changing Canadian legal context (e.g. Canadian
laws concerning terrorism and hate crime) while taking into
account issues of international comparability.
Services are to be provided on an "as and when requested" basis
in accordance with the Task
Authorization process detailed in Article 1.1, Part 7, of the
Resulting Contract.
The period of the is from date of contract award until March 31,
2015.
There is not a security requirement associated with this
requirement.
Pursuant to section 01 of Standard Instructions 2003, a Consent
to a Criminal Record Verification form, must be submitted with

who is currently on the Bidder's Board of Directors.
The requirement is limited to Canadian goods and/or services.
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the Agreement on
Internal Trade (AIT).

Attachment 2 of the bid solicitation.
BASIS OF SELECTION -- BEST OVERALL PROPOSAL WITHIN A STIPULATED
BUDGET
1. To be declared responsive, a bid must:
(a) comply with all the requirements of the bid solicitation;
(b) meet all mandatory technical and management evaluation
criteria;
(c) obtain the required minimum points for each criterion with a
pass mark;
Bids not meeting (a) or (b) or (c) will be declared
non-responsive. Neither the responsive bid that receives the
highest number of points nor the one that proposed the lowest
price will necessarily be accepted. The responsive bid with the
lowest evaluated price per point will be recommended for award
of a contract. The evaluated price per point will be determined
by dividing the evaluated price of the bid by the number of
points obtained for the point rated technical and management
evaluation criteria.
In the event that two or more responsive bids have the same
overall score, the responsive bid with the lowest evaluated
price will be recommended for award of a contract.
