The two responsive bids with the lowest and second lowest total
aggregate price will proceed to Phase 2 which is the evaluation
of prototype cards.

M.1 For Phase 2, the Bidder must provide ten (10) prototype
cards of Card B with the "chip" activated and ten (10) prototype
cards of Card C printed as per the artwork supplied and as
specified in the Annex A Statement of Work. The PWGSC
Contracting Authority will provide the Bidder with the artwork
for these prototypes as either PDF or EPS files as well as a the
artwork for the holographic* image to be used for the basis to
produce the required prototype cards.

• Due to the timeframe requirement for these prototypes, the

Bidder may use a generic holographic image that contains the
same properties of the one required for the CBSA ID Cards for
this stage however all holograms must meet the size and
placement and other specs set out in the Annex A Statement of
work and artwork.

The Bidder must deliver the completed prototype cards for
evaluation to the PWGSC Contracting Authority within fifteen

been completed, CBSA will pay for the prototypes based on the
pricing submitted in Annex B (section B.M.2) using an
acquisition card.

If any of the prototype cards for Card "B" submitted by the
Bidder fail to operate because the "chip" was not activated and
will not permit CBSA to program the card to work on the CBSA
Tyco/ADT card readers, then the submitted card(s) that are non
operational will be returned to the Bidder.

The Bidder will be permitted to activate these cards and return
them to the PWGSC Contracting Authority within three (3)
business days of receiving the returns in order to permit the
evaluation team to continue with the evaluation. The prototype
cards will only be returned once to permit the Bidder to be
corrected for this "chip" activation problem.

If the submitted cards from either of the two lowest responsive
Bidders do not meet the requirements as specified in Table 1,
then the next Bidder with the lowest (3rd) aggregate price will
proceed to Phase 2.
