PART 5 - CERTIFICATIONS

Bidders must provide the required certifications and associated
information to be awarded a contract.

The certifications provided by bidders to Canada are subject to
verification by Canada at all times. Canada will declare a bid
non-responsive, or will declare a contractor in default in
carrying out any of its obligations under the Contract, if any
certification made by the Bidder is found to be untrue whether
made knowingly or unknowingly, during the bid evaluation period
or during the contract period.

The Contracting Authority will have the right to ask for
additional information to verify the Bidder's certifications.
Failure to comply and to cooperate with any request or
requirement imposed by the Contracting Authority may render the
bid non-responsive or constitute a default under the Contract.

1. Certifications Required Precedent to Contract Award

1.1 Integrity Provisions - Associated Information
By submitting a bid, the Bidder certifies that the Bidder and
its Affiliates are in compliance with the provisions as stated
in Section 01 Integrity Provisions - Bid of Standard

the Integrity Provisions will assist Canada in confirming that
the certifications are true.

any of the Bidder's members if the Bidder is a Joint Venture, is

(http://www.labour.gc.ca/eng/standards_equity/eq/emp/f…
lig.shtml) available from Employment and Social Development
Canada (ESDC) - Labour's website.

Canada will have the right to declare a bid non-responsive if
the Bidder, or any member of the Bidder if the Bidder is a Joint
Venture, appears on the "FCP Limited Eligibility to Bid " list
at the time of contract award.

2. Additional Certifications Required Precedent to Contract Award
