The closing date of the Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) has been changed from March 30, 2021 at 2:00 PM EDS to April 6, 2021 at 2:00PM EDS.
Canada has a requirement to establish a procurement process to help modernize the delivery of security screening equipment, detection technologies and related services for Government of Canada (GC) client departments. The objective of this Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) is to create a list of Qualified Respondents (QR) which Canada intends to use to establish solicitations for contracts, standing offers and/or supply arrangements in two (2) streams:
a) Stream 1: Conveyor-Style baggage x-ray machines (X-ray); and
b) Stream 2: Walk-Through Metal Detectors (WTMD)
This Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) is the first phase of a procurement process by Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC). Suppliers are invited to pre-qualify in accordance with the terms and conditions of this ITQ in order to become a Qualified Respondent (QR) for the later phases of the procurement process. Respondents who meet all the mandatory criteria will be considered QR. The mandatory criteria includes: a Designated Organization Screening and a Supply Chain Integrity Verification. It is Canada’s intent to permit QR only to bid on any subsequent solicitation issued as part of this procurement process.
This ITQ is neither a call for tenders nor a solicitation. No contract will result from this ITQ. The issuance of this ITQ is not to be considered in any way a commitment by the Government of Canada (GoC) or as authorization to potential participants to undertake any work, which could be charged to Canada. This ITQ may be partially or completely cancelled by Canada at any time, and therefore there is no guarantee of a subsequent procurement phase. Because the ITQ is not a tender, Respondents and QR may withdraw from this procurement phase at any time.
