NATURE OF THE LETTER OF INTEREST (LOI) - Improved Trail Snowshoe
(ITS)
The purpose of this Letter of Interest (LOI) is to inform
industry that the Department of National Defence (DND) intends
to introduce a new item of winter mobility equipment, namely the
Improved Trail Snowshoe (ITS).
This LOI seeks to investigate the following:
What products are commercially available and suitable for use
with the military that may be feasible for procurement and
delivery within the next two(2) years.
The performance and specific characteristics (and design) of
currently available commercial snowshoes; and
An indication of production capabilities and potential unit costs
The results of this LOI shall be to revise the current product
performance specification, bid evaluation plan and aid in the
purchase of an approximate quantity of 10,000 - 20, 000 pairs of
snowshoes (ITS) for military use.
This Letter of Interest (LOI) is not a bid solicitation. This
LOI will not result in the award of any contract; therefore,
potential suppliers of any goods or services described in the
LOI should not earmark stock or facilities, nor allocate
resources as a result of any information contained in this LOI.
Nor will this LOI result in the creation of any source list;
therefore, whether or not any potential supplier responds to
this LOI will not preclude that supplier from participating in
any future procurement. Also, the procurement of any of the
goods and services described in this LOI will not necessarily
follow this LOI. This LOI is simply intended to solicit
information from industry with respect to the contents of this
LOI.
Enquiries regarding this LOI shall be directed to the LOI
Authority. Enquiries received after 15 days before the closing
date of this LOI may not be answered. Because this is not a bid
solicitation, the Government of Canada will not necessarily
respond to all enquiries in writing, nor circulate all answers
to Industry.
Delivery Date: Above-mentioned
The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any
procurement.
Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
