Nature of Requirements:
Canada has a requirement for a commercially available fully
hosted Managed Web Service (MWS), which includes a Content
Delivery Network, Analytics, and Hosting environments. The
Government of Canada (GC) is transforming its web presence to
better serve Canadians by taking advantage of new technology and
making it easier for the public to search and find information
online using any device.
The MWS must meet all the requirements as stated in Annex A -
Statement of Requirements (SOR). The MWS Solution must also
include a warranty, and associated documentation. Training and
professional services must also be provided, on an as and when
requested basis. The bid solicitation is intended to result in
the award of a Contract for 1 year, plus 5 one-year irrevocable
options allowing Canada to extend the term of the Contract. All
parts of the MWS must be available to the Users 24 hours a day,
7 days a week, 365 days a year (as described in the Contract),
and operate at all times in accordance with the SOR in the GC
operational environment described in the bid solicitation. The
Canadian English and Canadian French version of the MWS must be
available at bid closing. There is a security requirement
associated with this requirement. Due to the urgency of this
requirement and the length of the process to obtain the
necessary security clearance, bidders are asked to initiate the
process to obtain a security clearance as soon as possible. Any
delay in the award of a Contract to allow the successful bidder
to obtain the required clearance will be at the entire
discretion of the Contracting Authority.
For additional information, see Part 6 - Security, Financial and
Other Requirements, and Part 7 - Resulting Contract Clauses.
