Public Services and Procurement Canada, Pacific Region, intends to establish a Supply Arrangement for the provision of portable camp units, including but not limited to washrooms, laundry and associated equipment such as fuel tanks, water storage tanks, waste tanks, piping or plumbing requirement, as well as associated ancillary services including but not limited to supply and delivery of water, waste disposal on an "as and when requested" basis for use by various Federal Government Departments and Agencies located on Vancouver Island, Mainland British Columbia, and the Yukon Territory.  The intent is to develop a pre-qualified vendor list with their associated inventory list so that Canada can respond expeditiously in urgent situations.  It may also be used for non-urgent requirements.

Supply Arrangements include a set of predetermined terms and conditions that will apply to any subsequent contracts. 

On-going Opportunity for Qualification

A Notice will be posted for the duration of the arrangement on the Government Electronic Tendering Service (GETS) to allow new Suppliers to become qualified.  Existing qualified Suppliers, who have been issued a supply arrangement, will not be required to submit a new arrangement.

Due to the resources required to evaluate the arrangements, Canada has reserved the right to conduct the arrangements in cycles, no less than every six months.  The schedule below outlines the closing dates for each evaluation.
