Germany, for the TEODOR RVO's Manipulator Vehicle Simulation
TEODOR SIM 2.0 as they have the exclusive rights to develop the

The Department of National Defence has a requirement to procure
a special purpose Simulator for the TEODR ROV, procured under
contract W8476-05AM03/001/BK awarded in January 2006.
The Simulator requested is a one-of-a kind item that is
specifically designed for the TEODOR ROV currently in service

The procurement of the remote operated vehicle (ROV) was by
competitive tender. Now CF is ordering the simulator which has
recently been developed by Telerob, who have the exclusive
rights.
This procurement is subject to limited tendering in accordance
with Supply Manual Article 5.002(d): where only one supplier or
firm is capable of performing the contract; and AIT chapter 5,

meet the requirements of a procurement, an entity may use
procurement procedures that are different from those described
in paragraph 1 though 10 in the following circumstances: (b)
where there is an absence of competition for technical reasons
and the goods or services can be supplied only be a particular
supplier and no alternative or substitute exists.
A sole source RFP will be sent to Telerob, Germany, requesting a
formal quote with the required price support.
Approval for this requirement is being sought at the appropriate
levels.

paragraph 2 and Section B; from the World Trade Organization -
Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP) Annex 1.
Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT) applies. Comprehensive Land

applicable to this requirement.

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
