Printing Polling Division Maps

Elections Canada (EC) requires high-speed, high-volume, just-in-time reprographic services to support electoral events.  Although many requirements may arise, the requirement currently consists of the reproduction under Scenario A (as defined in section 5) of the following maps and documents (estimated quantities):
•	340,000 square feet of large PD maps (B&W)
•	50,000 square feet of large PD maps (colour)
•	370,000 copies of PD documents / 8½"x11" (B&W)
•	9,550 copies of small PD Maps (B&W)

The polling division maps and documents are updated continually, so they must be printed as close as possible to an electoral event.  An election announcement stipulating a vote in 36 days can be made with no warning; hence, the polling division maps and documents must be obtained and processed ahead of time. The printing, collation and packaging must be completed and received at the EC facilities in Ottawa and/or Gatineau within 7 calendar days of official notification of requirement.
