Canada is seeking to establish Supply Arrangements (SA) to procure to procure Agricultural Tractors, various configurations and ancillary items in accordance with Annex A - Purchase Description.
Suppliers may submit an arrangement for a specific configuration. Suppliers must however submit an arrangement for all items within the configuration for which an arrangement is submitted.
The Request for Supply Arrangements (RFSA) is to establish supply arrangements for the delivery of the requirement detailed in the RFSA to the Identified Users across Canada, excluding locations within Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Quebec, and Labrador that are subject to Comprehensive Land Claims Agreements (CLCAs). Any requirement for deliveries to locations within CLCAs areas within Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Quebec, or Labrador will have to be treated as a separate procurement, outside of the resulting supply arrangements.
An SA is a non-binding arrangement between Canada and a pre-qualified supplier that allows departments and agencies to award contracts and solicit bids from a pool of pre-qualified suppliers for specific requirements within the scope of the SA. An 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 an SA alone. The intent of an 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.
All arrangements submitted under this Request for Supply Arrangements (RFSA) will be evaluated by Canada. An arrangement must comply with the requirements of the RFSA and meet all mandatory technical evaluation criteria to be declared responsive. All responsive arrangements will be recommended for issuance of a supply arrangement. Only suppliers who have been pre-qualified and have been awarded an SA will be allowed to submit bids for individual Request for Proposals (RFPs).
The period of the RFSA will be for three (3) years from the date of issuance.
Suppliers will have an on-going opportunity for pre-qualification during the RFSA validity period. A continuous Notice will be posted on the Government Electronic Tendering Service (GETS) to allow new Suppliers to become pre-qualified. Existing pre-qualified Suppliers, who have been issued a SA, will not be required to submit a new arrangement. The existing pre-qualified Suppliers will have an on-going opportunity during the RFSA validity period to qualify new products.
Delivery Date: 10/10/2018
The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any procurement.
Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
