A standing offer itself is not a contract. A separate contract is formed each time a call-up for the provision of goods and/or services is made against a standing offer. When a call-up is made, it constitutes an unconditional acceptance by Canada of the supplier's offer for the provision, to the extent specified, of the goods and/or services described in the standing offer. Canada's liability is limited to the actual value of the call-ups made by the identified user(s) within the period the standing offer is valid.
