TITLE: REMINGTON GUN PARTS, REGINA, SK
REQUIREMENT
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police has a requirement for the
supply and delivery of Remington
gun parts for the Armourer Section in Regina, Saskatchewan.
SOLE SOURCE JUSTIFICATION
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police use these parts for law
enforcement applications and are subject to use and abuse not
generally encountered with standard hunting/commercial products.
As such, only factory law enforcement parts are used to
alleviate malfunctions and wear that can adversely affect the
performance and safety of the firearm.
Currently the RCMP has approximately 5000 Remington Shotguns in
service and must use factory law enforcement parts to repair
these firearms, to eliminate potential liability issues from
after market parts. The RCMP only purchased genuine factory law
enforcement parts where available.

competitive soliciting of bids before any contract is entered
into. However, contracts may be entered into without soliciting

An Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) allows departments and
agencies to post a notice, for no less than fifteen (15)
calendar days, indicating to the supplier community that it
intends to award a good, service or construction contract to a
pre-identified contractor. If no other supplier submits, on or
before the closing date, a Statement of Capabilities that meets
the requirements set out in the ACAN, the contracting authority
may then proceed with the award. However, should a Statement of
Capabilities be found to meet the requirements set out in the
ACAN, then the contracting authority will proceed to a full
tendering process.
Suppliers who consider themselves fully qualified and available
to provide the services/goods described herein, may submit a
statement of capabilities in writing to the contact person
identified in this Notice on or before the closing date of this
Notice. The statement of capabilities must clearly demonstrate
how the supplier meets the advertised requirements.

transmission, on the covering page.

procurement.
