All required supporting documentation and bid submission must be submitted on August 12, 2022 by 14h EDT. In order to meet our federal commitments toward a more sustainable approach to producing, using and managing plastics, including reducing plastic waste and marine litter, PSPC is taking concrete steps to address packaging waste in procurement. Canada uses many kinds of plastic and non-plastic packaging material including corrugated fibreboard products, shipping sacks, envelopes, polyethylene bags, cushioning materials, straps and tape that are procured through a National Master Standing Offer (NMSO), E60HS-20PACK/001/HS, which is available to all government departments for delivery across Canada. The intent is to develop an environmentally preferable packaging NMSO. The results of this RFI will inform the requirements to establish the new NMSO, which is expected in 2024. https://service.ariba.com/Discovery.aw/ad/viewRFX?id=…
