This bid solicitation is being re-issued to adjust the solicitation to better reflect Canada’s operational requirements. Bidders submitting a proposal are advised that they must not rely on any information previously provided in the context of bid solicitation number 21120-164184/A dated 2017-01-11 with a bid closing date of 2017-03-21 at 14:00 EDT. Please Note: Interested suppliers are encouraged to attend the Bidders’ Conference and Site Visit, during which suppliers will be provided information and an opportunity to ask questions about the requirement and the procurement process. Attendance is optional, but recommended, to ensure suppliers will fully understand the proposed procurement. Bidders are also encouraged to submit any enquiries they may have in accordance with Section 2.4 - Enquiries - Bid Solicitation. Description of the Requirement This bid solicitation is being issued to satisfy the requirement of Correctional Service Canada (the "Client") for a centralized Point of Sale Solution (the "POS Solution"). The bid solicitation is intended to result in the award of a Contract for 1 year, plus 5 one-year irrevocable options allowing Canada to extend the term of the contract. The required POS Solution may be comprised of any combination of commercial-off-the-shelf software ("COTS"), Pre-Existing software or custom software required for the POS Solution to operate at all times in accordance with the Statement of Work in the Client's technical environment described in the bid solicitation. The POS Solution must include the Licensed Software, the custom software, a 12-month warranty, software maintenance and support, and Software Documentation. Training and professional services must also be provided, if requested. The first work under the resulting contract will be for the successful Bidder to develop and implement the custom software functionalities required for the POS Solution to operate at all times in accordance with the Statement of Work in the Client's technical environment described in the bid solicitation. As software maintenance will be for the POS Solution as a whole, Canada requires a direct relationship with the software developer, to avoid internal solution incompatibility. Suppliers who will not themselves perform the custom software development must bid as a joint venture with the entity who will perform that work; a Bidder will not be permitted to subcontract this work. Term of the Contract It is intended to result in the award of a Contract for 1 year, plus 5 one-year irrevocable options allowing Canada to extend the term of the Contract.
