On 14 October 2014, Public Works and Government Services Canada
(PWGSC) published a Letter of Interest (LOI) on the Government
Electronic Tendering Service (GETS) seeking to engage with
Industry on behalf of the Department of National Defence (DND)
Suffield, acting as AGENT for the British Army Training Unit
Suffied (BATUS).  As part of that engagement, Participants were
asked to provide a written response to questions related to both
the technical aspects of the Work to be undertaken and the
procurement strategy.  

The purpose of the Industry Engagement was to:

a)	initiate discussions with industry on the requirement for a
new contract;
b)	share plans with industry, solicit input and engage in
dialogue regarding the requirements of 		BATC Canada;
c)	understand what Contractors have to offer and leverage their
expertise to develop a 				procurement strategy that achieves
the project's objectives; and
d)	elicit feedback from industry to questions posed.

Participants were encouraged to ask questions, provide comments
and to request a one-on-one session, with the objective to
receive feedback that may be incorporated into the solicitation
document, creating a procurement that is fair and transparent to
suppliers, enhances competition, and results in best value to
Canada. 

Attached are the minutes of the one-one-one sessions that were
conducted on 17 March 2015.

The publication of this document effectively concludes the
Industry Engagement process. The information gathered through
this process will be considered when finalizing the procurement
strategy and should meet the needs of the Government of Canada
and be compatible with Industry standard practices.
