available Stakeholders Management System (the "Solution") for
approximately 500 Client Users. The required Solution must
include any licenses, software maintenance and support, and
documentation. Training and professional services must also be

irrevocable options allowing Canada to extend the term of the
contract. All parts of the Solution must be available to the
Client Users 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, in

office and staff, and other individuals authorized by the Client
to perform services in relation to the business and affairs of
the Client, including contractors or consultants performing work
for the Client from time to time. Although Canada may make the
Solution available to any or all the Clients, this bid
solicitation does not preclude Canada from using another method
of supply for entities of the Government of Canada with the same
