    Description

    Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) – Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Solution

    About Farm Credit Canada (FCC): FCC is Canada’s leading agriculture lender, with a healthy portfolio of more than $31 billion. Our employees are dedicated to the future of Canadian agriculture and its role in feeding an ever-growing world. We provide flexible, competitively priced financing, management software, information and knowledge specifically designed for the agriculture and agri-food industry. Our profits are reinvested back into agriculture and the communities where our customers and employees live and work. For more information, visit www.fcc.ca.

    ITQ Scope: FCC is releasing this ITQ as the first phase in a non-binding, competitive procurement process, which will enable FCC to identify the different CRM technology solutions currently available in the market, and determine the solutions that provide the best opportunity for improvement to FCC’s current CRM capabilties, and the best fit with its potential future CRM needs. The expected outcome of the ITQ is to develop a short-list of qualified vendors that will be invited to participate in subsequent phases of the procurement process. 

    Vendors are advised that FCC’s objective is to assess CRM software products only, and is not seeking consulting or implementation services at this time.

    ITQ Schedule:

    • ITQ issue date: January 18, 2018
    • Vendor question and answer session (via conference call): February 5th, 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm CST
    • ITQ closing date and time: February 20th at 12:00 PM (noon) CST
