The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has a requirement for provision of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) Surveillance and Sampling Services in the province of Ontario.
The purpose of this Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) is to signal the government's intention to award a contract for these services to Sanimax APB Inc, located at 9900, boulevard Maurice Duplessis, Montreal, QC, H1C 1G2. Before awarding a contract, however, the government would like to provide other suppliers with the opportunity to demonstrate that they are capable of satisfying the requirements set out in this Notice, by submitting a statement of capabilities during the fifteen (15) calendar day posting period.
If other potential suppliers submit a statement of capabilities during the fifteen (15) calendar day posting period that meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, the government will proceed to a full tendering process on either the government's electronic tendering service or through traditional means, in order to award the contract.
If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a statement of capabilities meeting the requirements set out in the ACAN, a contract will be awarded to the pre-selected supplier.
