National Energy Board prepares projections of energy supply and demand requirements, publishing its findings from time to time in periodic reports. The projections are undertaken in support of its mandate to monitor energy markets and provide an outlook for Canadian supply and demand of all major energy commodities.
ENERGY 2020 is being used to undertake energy demand and electricity analysis for the Energy Futures Report as well as other energy demand focused work. For its next piece of analysis, the model needs to be updated to include 2016 energy data as well some on-going modeling support.
The purpose of this ACAN is to provide public notice indicating to the supplier community that NEB intends to award a contract for these services to Systematic Solutions Inc. (herein after, SSI). Before awarding the contract however, the government would like to allow other potential suppliers to signal their interest in bidding and demonstrate they are capable of satisfying the requirements by submitting a Statement of Capabilities within the 15 calendar day posting period.
If no other potential supplier submits a Statement of Capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, on or before the closing date stated in the ACAN, the contracting officer may then proceed with the award to the pre-identified supplier.
