1. Statement of Work
To provide janitorial services for approximately 157 buildings
at the Canadian Forces Base located in Petawawa, Ontario (2 ASG
Garrison Petawawa) in accordance with the Statement of Work in
Annex A.
The Contractor must provide scheduled and unscheduled (when
authorized by the Technical Authority) janitorial services and
provide sanitary supplies to all buildings listed in the
attachment entitled "Space Inventory by Sector" which will be
provided at the Mandatory Site Visit.
The period of the resulting Contract will be for three years
from 1 May 2014 with Canada having an irrevocable option to
extend the term by two (2) additional one year periods.
2. Mandatory Site Visit
It is mandatory that the Bidder or a representative of the
Bidder visit the work site. Arrangements have been made for
site visit to be held on May 7, 2013 at 9:00 a.m. local time at
2 ASG Garrison Petawawa building S-111 Base Construction
Engineers' Conference Room.
The duration of the site visit will be a minimum of two 8 hour
days and a maximum of three 8 hour days. Bidders or their
representatives must attend the entire mandatory site visit to
comply with Canada's Mandatory Requirement for attendance.
Bidders must communicate with the Contracting Authority no later
than 3 days before the scheduled visit to confirm attendance and
provide the names of the person(s) who will attend. Bidders
will be required to sign an attendance form. Bidders should
confirm in their bids that they have attended the site visit.
Bidders who do not attend or do not send a representative will
not be given an alternative appointment and their bids will be
rejected as non-compliant. Any clarifications or changes to the
bid solicitation resulting from the site visit will be included
as an amendment to the bid solicitation.
3. Technical Evaluation
Mandatory Technical Criteria
The mandatory technical evaluation criteria are:
(a) The Bidder or their representative must attend the entire
Mandatory Site Visit as specified in Part 2, clause 5 entitled
"Mandatory Site Visit".
(b) The Bidder must provide with their bid, the completed
janitorial experience form located in Annex G that must explain
how the legal entity which is submitting the bid has a minimum
of 24 months janitorial experience within the past 5 years (from
the bid closing date) cleaning a minimum of 92,000 square meters
of floor space a minimum of 5 days per week during all 24 months
of the Contract, or up to a maximum of two separate contracts.
i. If the bid includes descriptions of more than two contracts,
Canada will decide which ones to evaluate. The Contract (s)
must have been performed by the Bidder itself (and does not
include the experience of any proposed subcontractor or any
affiliate of the Bidder). However, several entities may combine
their experience by submitting a bid as a joint venture; in that
case, the bid must describe the previous experience of one or
more joint venture members, to meet the experience requirement.
For example, one similar Contract could be described for one
joint venture member and another Contract could be described for
another joint venture member. If two members of the joint
venture worked on the same work site at the same time, the areas
cleaned by each joint member will be combined and considered to
be one Contract.
4. Financial Evaluation
Mandatory Financial Criteria
(a) The Bidder must complete all required yearly usages, unit
pricing, lot pricing and percentages indicated by empty unshaded
cells in the tables in the Bid Pricing form in Annex B. The
Bidder must not change the format or the units of issue in
Tables 1, 2, and 3 of Annex B. All pricing must be firm in
Canadian currency.
(b) The Yearly Usage (hours) entered by the Bidder under Item
number 1A, Routine Work - Janitorial Personnel in Table 1 of
Annex B, must exceed 68.47 minimum Yearly Full Time Equivalent
(FTE) personnel x 1992 hours per year x 1.05 (5%) = 143,212
hours per year.
5. Basis of Selection - Mandatory Technical Criteria
A bid must comply with the requirements of the bid solicitation
and meet all mandatory technical evaluation criteria to be
declared responsive. The responsive bid with the lowest
evaluated price will be recommended for award of a Contract.

must be met:
