    Description
    Diplomatic Courier Transportation Services
    
    Transportation Services are required to transport Canada’s diplomatic courier along with the diplomatic bags or crates which can count in the hundreds and reach volumes in excess of 2500kg. Although the courier is responsible for the material there is a requirement to transport the material to either an airport or to an identified destination or to pick up a courier from one of these locations. This service is essential to ensure that the material is secured and monitored throughout its journey. 
    
    The objective of this requirement is to obtain a reliable transportation services provider to support the Diplomatic Courier and Transportation Service activities and other transportation requirements of the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT). The service provider must be prepared to perform these services as required and in confidence. 
    
    The Offeror will provide transportation services within the National Capital Region (NCR) as well as to several other Canadian cities and the United States of America.
