Standing Offer will be for a period of three (3) years. Canada

controls, signage, lighting, etc.
The criteria used in the evaluation process will relate to
previous achievements and experience of the firm; understanding
of the scope of services; approach and methodology; and cost of
service, and is more fully detailed in the Solicitation document.
The RFSO will be a single submission process. Proposals will be
evaluated for both technical content and price. The proposal
rankings will be based on 90 % for technical evaluation and 10 %
for price. Standing Offer particulars are described in the RFSO.
Firms should be able to demonstrate successful delivery of these
services for a broad variety of projects over the last ten (10)

on the basis of their demonstrated understanding of the scope of
services, their approach and methodology to providing those
