LETTER OF INTEREST (Sponsorship) FOOD SERVICES - VALCARTIER
Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), on behalf of the Department of National Defence (DND), is issuing this letter of interest to inform the food service industry - catering services that requests for proposal (RFP) are in preparation for catering services for cadet camps and reservists in the DND facilities at Valcartier. Security requirements will be associated with these needs.
Among other things, the Contractor must, at all times during the performance of the Contract/Standing Offer, hold a valid Designated Organization Screening (DOS), issued by the Canadian Industrial Security Directorate (CISD), Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC). And, the Contractor personnel requiring access to sensitive work site(s) must EAC hold a valid RELIABILITY STATUS, granted or approved by CISD/PWGSC.
The main intent of this letter of interest is therefore to encourage potential suppliers to be proactive when they approach the Canadian Industrial Security Directorate (CISD) by completing the organization and personnel forms prior to the issuance of any invitation to tender.
SPONSORSHIP:
As it takes a relatively long time for firms to obtain security clearance, we invite suppliers to apply for organization and security screening, as described on the CISD website.
You can now email M••••••••@••••••••.••.ca with the subject «Application for sponsorship of organizations and eligibility for safety investigation Project W0106-17R282 Catering Service- Valcartier», and provide the required information, according to the CISD website.
More information about obtaining security clearance for your organization and applying for a security investigation for your staff is available at: https://www.tpsgc-pwgsc.gc.ca/esc-src/enquete-screeni…
