The purpose of this Notice of Proposed Procurement (NPP) (T8493-140035/B) is to reinstate this process. The consultation process with industry will be donethrough the review and analysis of the draft Request for Supply Arrangement (RFSA).
The attached draft RFSA has been prepared as a vehicle to gather industry input, comments and recommendation for the development of the final RFSA. The purpose of the consultation is to provide industry a clear understanding of TC’s requirement and obtain feedback with regard to the best commercial practices. All solutions, ideas or issues provided further to the review of the draft RFSA will be analyzed for further consideration.
This is an opportunity for suppliers to review the current version of the RFSA, the associated Annexes and Appendices and to provide input for consideration in the development of the final RFSA. These are PWGSC standard instructionson how proposals are to be submitted.
Industry feedback is a crucial component of the success of this SA and as such, Canada requests that all comments and feedback be provided using an organized and consistent format. When responding with input regarding the draft RFSA, Annexes and Appendices, please clearly indicate the section number and paragraph, in chronological order, together with any comments or feedback.
A review team, composed of representatives from TC and PWGSC, will review all responses.
