    Overview

    The CRA is seeking to set up “as and when requested” contracts for graphic design services, including creative concept development, corporate identity and graphic standards and copywriting for the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). The services required are for the development of marketing-communications products in a variety of formats: social media, web, and print products.

    The CRA intends to enter into a three (3) year contract with two (2) irrevocable, twelve (12) month options.

    The Agency will include a minimum spend commitment of $25,000.00 Canadian over the entire period of the resulting primary contract, which includes any exercised option periods.

    The Canada Revenue Agency’s (CRA) e-commerce solution for ordering, receiving and reconciling goods and services is an Ariba tool which has been branded internally as “Synergy”. Synergy is being used in this requirement in order to expedite the ordering process under any resulting contract.

    The highest-ranked Bidder(s) must become a member of the ASN prior to Contract award, and maintain membership in the ASN throughout the period of any resulting Contract. All costs associated with this membership shall be borne by the Bidder.

    TRADE AGREEMENTS

    Only AIT is applicable to this requirement.

    Contractor Selection Methodology

    The Bidder must meet all mandatory criteria applicable to this solicitation. Only the bids meeting the mandatory criteria will be evaluated and scored in accordance with the point rated evaluation criteria. Any proposal that does not achieve the identified minimum point requirements for the technical evaluation criteria will be considered non-compliant and will receive no further consideration.

    To determine an overall score for each proposal, technical and price will each be given a rating value; in this case, 70% for technical and 30% for price, and then combined to derive a total combined rating.

    The Bidder recommended for award of the Contract will be the compliant Bidder achieving the highest combined rating.
