supersedes previous RFSO number W8486-136127/D dated February

Any work performed in Canada involving the care and use of
experimental animals must be carried out in compliance with the
Canadian Council on Animal Care (CCAC) programs and only by an
institution holding a CCAC Certificate of Good Animal Practice.
If the work is performed outside of Canada, the work must be
done in a facility and under animal use protocols that meet or
exceed the standards set out in the policies and guidelines of
the CCAC.
The RFSO is intended to result in the issuance of a National
Individual Standing Offer (NISO). A NISO is a Standing Offer
(SO) generally issued for the use of a single client.
This requirement contains two streams: Stream 1 is when
training must be provided at a DND/CF site and Stream 2 contains
a minimum monthly average temperature of 32°F/0°C for each month
of the year. The intent is to issue up to two NISOs, one per
stream; a NISO for Stream 1 was issued to Canadian Tactical and
Operational Medical Solutions (CTOMS) Inc. on January 20, 2014.
The period for making call-ups against the SO is from date of
issuance to February 16, 2016 with an irrevocable option to
extend the term of the SO by up to two additional one-year
periods.
For services requirements, Offerors in receipt of a pension or a
lump sum payment must provide the required information as
detailed in article 3 of Part 2 of the RFSO.
There is no security requirement associated with this
requirement.
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the North
American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Agreement on
Internal Trade (AIT).
The SO is not to be used for deliveries within a Comprehensive
Land Claims Settlement Area (CLCSA). All requirements for
delivery within a CLCSA are to be processed individually.
Delivery Date: 24/03/2014
