RFSA - PINTLE TRAILERS

The Government of Canada is seeking to establish SAs to procure Pintle Trailers. The Pintle Trailers are divided in 8 different configurations as follows:

Pintle Trailers, Between Wheels Configurations (BW-A, BW-B and BW-C), including various sub-configurations, related features and accessories in accordance with Annex “A” - Purchase Description - Pintle Trailer.
 
Pintle Trailers, Over Wheels Configurations (OW-A, OW-B, OW-C, OW-D and OW-E), including various sub-configurations, related features and accessories in accordance with Annex “A” - Purchase Description - Pintle Trailer.

Suppliers may submit an arrangement for a specific configuration (i.e.: BW-B only or OW-C only). Suppliers must however submit an arrangement for all sub-configurations within the configuration for which an arrangement is submitted. Suppliers must ensure that all features and accessories within the configuration for which an arrangement is submitted are available upon request in the contract. 

These trailers are for delivery to destinations across Canada.

The period of the SAs will be valid from the date of issue to March 31, 2020 inclusively.

An SA is a non-binding arrangement between Canada and a pre-qualified supplier that allows departments and agencies to award contracts and solicit bids from a pool of pre-qualified suppliers for specific requirements within the scope of the SA.  An SA is not a contract for the provision of the goods and services described in it and neither party is legally bound, as a result of signing a supply arrangement alone. The intent of a supply arrangement is to establish a framework to permit expeditiousprocessing of individual bid solicitations, which result in legally binding contracts for the goods and services described in those bid solicitations.

All arrangements submitted under this Request for Supply Arrangements (RFSA) will be evaluated by Canada. Suppliers meeting the technical capabilities will be placed on the SA.  Only supplierswho have been pre-qualified and have been awarded an SA will be allowed to submit bids for indiviudal RFPs.

Suppliers will have an on-going opportunity for qualification during the SA validity period. A continuous Notice will be posted on the Government Electronic Tendering Service (GETS) to allow new Suppliers to become qualified. Existing qualified Suppliers, who have been issued a supply arrangement, will not be required to submit a new arrangement. The existing qualified Suppliers will have an on-going opportunity during the SA validity period to qualify new products.
