Hazardous Waste Disposal Services, PWGSC, National

This requirement is to establish multiple Supply Arrangements to provide all labour, materials, equipment, tools and supervision necessary for the identification, labelling, packaging, reparation of profile documentation sheets, loading, transportation and disposal/destruction of user-generated hazardous waste products for various Federal Government Departments and Agencies within Canada.  These Supply Arrangements are meant for the procurement of professional and commercial services under those approval authorities.

Suppliers must be licensed and permitted to provide hazardous waste disposal services within one or more provinces or territories.

The Supply Arrangements have no defined end-date and will remain valid until such time as PWGSC no longer considers it to be advantageous to use them.  They will replace the Supply Arrangements currently in place under EW479-150546 & EW479-162880/B Hazardous Waste Disposal.

Two streams of Supply Arrangements may be issued pursuant to this solicitation, as follows:

1)  Any supplier, including Indigenous suppliers, wishing to submit an arrangement not pursuant to the Procurement Strategy for Aboriginal Business (PSAB). For the purpose of the RFSA, this stream is titled “General” or “General Suppliers” or “General stream.”  General Suppliers must be able to provide the services either across Canada (nationally) or in at least one region of Canada.

i)  Requirements in the general stream have three tiers with separate instructions, as defined in Part 6 (B), Section 2 - Bid Solicitation of this RFSA:

For bid solicitations valued at $25,000.00 or more (including applicable taxes), if, and only if, the requirement covered by the bid solicitation of any resulting supply arrangement is administered by PWGSC, the requirement will be subject to a preference for Canadian goods and/or services or will be limited to Canadian goods and/or services.

Otherwise, the requirement is subject to the Government Contracts Regulations (GCRs) 
b.  For requirements estimated at $40,000.00 to $100,000.00 (applicable taxes included):
