PART 5 - CERTIFICATIONS
Bidders must provide the required certifications to be awarded a
contract. Canada will declare a bid non-responsive if the
required certifications are not completed and submitted as
requested.
Compliance with the certifications bidders provide to Canada is
subject to verification by Canada during the bid evaluation
period (before award of a contract) and after award of a
contract. The Contracting Authority will have the right to ask
for additional information to verify bidders' compliance with
the certifications before award of a contract. The bid will be
declared non-responsive if any certification made by the Bidder
is untrue, whether made knowingly or unknowingly. Failure to
comply with the certifications or to comply with the request of
the Contracting Authority for additional information will also
render the bid non-responsive.
1. Code of Conduct Certifications - Consent to a Criminal Record
Verification
1.1 Bidders must submit with their bid, by the bid solicitation
closing date:
(a) a complete list of names of all individuals who are
currently directors of the Bidder;
(b) a properly completed and signed form Consent to a Criminal
Record Verification (PWGSC-TPSGC 229), for each individual
named in the list.
For information purposes an electronic copy of the Consent to a
Criminal Record Verification can be found at:
http://www.tpsgc-pwgsc.gc.ca/app-acq/forms/documents/…
2. Certifications Precedent to Contract Award
The certifications listed below should be completed and
submitted with the bid, but may be submitted afterwards. If any
of these required certifications is not completed and submitted
as requested, the Contracting Authority will so inform the
Bidder and provide the Bidder with a time frame within which to
meet the requirement. Failure to comply with the request of the
Contracting Authority and meet the requirement within that time
period will render the bid non-responsive.
2.1 Federal Contractors Program - over $25,000 and below $200,000
Suppliers who are subject to the Federal Contractors Program
(FCP) and have been declared ineligible contractors by Human
Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC) are no longer
eligible to receive federal government contracts over the
threshold for solicitation of bids as set out in the Government
Contracts Regulations. Suppliers may be declared ineligible
contractors either as a result of a finding of non-compliance by
HRSDC, or following their voluntary withdrawal from the FCP for
a reason other than the reduction of their workforce to less
than 100 employees. Any bids from ineligible contractors,
including a bid from a joint venture that has a member who is an
ineligible contractor, will be declared non-responsive.
The Bidder, or, if the Bidder is a joint venture the member of
the joint venture, certifies its status with the FCP, as follows:
The Bidder or the member of the joint venture
(a) ( ) is not subject to the FCP, having a workforce of
less than 100 full-time or part-time permanent employees, or
temporary employees having worked 12 weeks or more in Canada;

a workforce of 100 or more full-time or part-time permanent
employees, and/or temporary employees having worked 12 weeks or
more in Canada, but has not previously obtained a certificate
number from HRSDC, having not bid on requirements of $200,000 or
more;
