Existing Supply Arrangement Holders
This document allows existing SA Holders to submit arrangement to enable them to qualify for Additional Specialty Services and/or additional geographic locations for which they currently do not have a supply arrangement.  

Existing supply arrangement holders are not required to re-quality for any specialty services for which they already have a supply arrangement although they must otherwise comply with the new requirements of the refresh solicitation.

Suppliers must identify the geographic area(s) in which they propose to provide services.

Suppliers are only required to submit one arrangement regardless of their number of proposed Service Streams.  Suppliers may propose a maximum of three out of six streams of service.  Suppliers may choose one or more
geographic regions.

There is no maximum to the number of Supply Arrangements that may be issued as result of this RFSA.

The Supply Arrangements will remain valid for a period of six years or until such time as Canada no longer considers it advantageous to use them.  The period for awarding contracts under the Supply Arrangement begins on the start date of the Supply Arrangement.

There are security requirements associated with this requirement.

The requirement is subject to the provisions of the World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP) and the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
