Requirement

Canada has a requirement to establish Regional Master Standing
Offer(s) for the supply of various Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM); Compatible; and Remanufactured imaging
consumables such as toner cartridges, maintenance kits, drums
and fusers etc., for use by all Federal Government Departments
and Agencies, on an "as and when requested" basis.  An Offeror
may offer either OEM, Compatible or Remanufactured imaging
consumables, or any combination thereof.  Resulting RMSOs will
be valid for 12 months from the date of issuance (unless PWGSC
determine in its sole discretion, to set aside this procurement
vehicle), with Canada retaining the right to request up to two
extensions of up to 12 months each.  

There are two (2) separate solicitation documents published on
GETS for this requirement; one (1) solicitation document
EZ107-120002/A aimed at the general industry and one (1) under
the aboriginal set-aside EZ107-120002/B. If Offerors are
eligible and choose to make an offer on both requirements, they
must submit separate proposals for each solicitation.

During the Standing Offer Period, Offerors will have the
opportunity to refresh their prices every two months, providing
that refreshes offer equal or better value to Canada.  Canada
reserves the right to revise this time period if necessary.

This procurement is set aside from the international trade
agreements under the provision each has for set-asides for small
and minority businesses.

The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any
procurement.

Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
