Automated Pharmacy Medication Packager / Labeller systems for Correctional Service Canada (CSC).

CSC Regional Pharmacies are introducing automation to their prescription filling processes. Automated packager / labelers will allow the pharmacies to tailor the filling / packaging processes and assist federal institutions in operating in a more efficient manner. The purpose of this RFP is to purchase autopackers for the remaining 2 regions (Ontario and Pacific) and allow the ability for the other 3 regions to replace their current autopackagers if they so choose.  

The goal is to automate much of the dispensing process of solid oral dosage medications at all of the regional pharmacies with the use of two large packagers / labelers. 

The packager / labeler system must be turnkey and include all design, labor and equipment including materials, cables, tools, transportation services, supervision, coordination, documentation, and integration and necessary instruction to complete all installations required.

The delivery of the two automated pharmacy medication packager /labeller systems, including operator instructions / training manuals in both official languages is requested to be received on or before 31 March 2019.  

Following successful bid and implementation of the contract, CSC may wish to purchase the same auto packager for other locations (Prairie Region - Saskatoon; Quebec Region - Laval; and Atlantic Region - Moncton) as part of this contract.  This option to purchase additional packagers will be valid until 31 March 2024. 

The requirement is subject to the provisions of the World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP), the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), and the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA).
