General information:
A Supply Arrangement (SA) is a method of supply used by Public Works and GovernmentServices Canada (PWGSC) to procure goods and services.
A SA is an arrangement between Canada and pre-qualified suppliers that allows identified users to solicit bids from a pool of pre-qualified suppliers for specific requirements within the scope of a SA. A SA is not a contract for the provision of the goods and services described in it and neither party is legally bound as a result of signing a SA alone. The intent of a SA is to establish a framework to permit expeditious processing of "individual bid solicitations" which result in legally binding contracts for the goods and services described in those bid solicitations.
On-going Opportunity for Qualification:
This notice is being issued as the perpetual Notice to the Supply Arrangement (SA) (EE517-150138) to inspect on an as-and-when-requested basis, marine structures throughout the Quebec Region. The objective is to invite additional suppliers to submit arrangements to become pre-qualified Suppliers under Terms and Conditions of Request For Supply Arrangement (RFSA) EE517-150138/D.
Pre-qualified suppliers for which a SA has already been issued under EE517-150138/A, /B, and /C and which is still valid, will not have to submit a new arrangement.
If a supplier would like to qualify for a Supply Arrangement under this RFSA, it must obtain the RFSA documents Number EE517-150138/D.
Evaluation Procedures:
Arrangements will be assessed in accordance with the entire requirement of the RFSA including the technical evaluation criteria. No financial criteria are evaluated under this RFSA. Financial criteria will be requested during "individual bid solicitations" sent directly to pre-qualified Suppliers of EE517-150138.
