-----------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------

A supply arrangement is a non-binding arrangement between Canada
and pre-qualified suppleirs that allows departments to award
contracts and solicit bids from a pool of pre-qualified
suppliers for specific requirements within the scope of the
supply arrangement.  The intent of a supply arrangement is to
establish a framework to permit expeditious processing of
individual bid solicitations, which result in legally binding
contracts for the services described in those bid solicitations.

The supply arrangement is not in itself a contract, but rather a
base document that forms part of the future Request for
Quotation (RFQ) and resulting contract.  When issued a supply
arrangement, the supplier accepts the obligation to provide
specified services in accordance with the supply arrangement,
under any resulting contract that may be awarded.  Any resulting
contract will be established as a result of a RFQ.  These RFQs
will specify the specific requirements, and may contain
additional terms and conditions that the supplier must meet.

See the bid solicitation section of the RFSA for further details
on this procurement process.

The period of this supply arrangement is until September 30,
2016.
