of:

	ISO 9001:2008 - Quality management systems - Requirements,
published by the International Organization   for  
Standardization   (ISO),   current   edition   at   date   of
submission of the Contractor's bid with the exclusion of the
following requirement:

	7.3   Design and development.

	It is not the intent of this clause to require that the
Contractor be registered to the applicable standard; however,
the Contractor's quality management system must address each
requirement contained in the standard.

Insurance: The Contractor must obtain Ship Repairer's Liability
Insurance and maintain it in force throughout the duration of
the Contract, in an amount usual for a contract of this nature,
but for not less than $10,000,000 per accident or occurrence.

but for not less than $10,000,000 per accident or occurrence.

Applicability of the trade agreement(s) to the procurement

	This procurement is subject to the Agreement on Internal Trade
(AIT) and exempt from NAFTA [see Chapter 10, Annex 1001.2b,
paragraph 1 (a)] and from the WTO-AGP (see Annex 4).  

Justification for the Pre-Identified Supplier

	The shipyard, operated by Northern Transportation Company
Limited (NTCL) in Hay River, is currently the only known
facility in the area capable of docking the CCGS Dumit and
moving the vessel into an enclosed structure for the duration of
the work period.

	PWGSC Policy allows for the work to be directed to one shipyard
if certain conditions exist. In this case, special operational
considerations of the client limit movement of the vessel beyond
a specified location.

	This vessel's primary operational role is the installation and
removal of navigational buoys in the Mackenzie River system in
the NWT. The vessel is based at the Coast Guard base in Hay
River. At the close of the navigational season the vessel works
its way down the river picking up the buoys to avoid them being
damaged by ice and ends its trip in Hay River. The vessel cannot
navigate in ice conditions in the river as it is not ice
strengthened. (i.e. it is not an icebreaker). Given the vessel's
operational requirements, it cannot be moved to another location
for work to be carried out.

Government Contracts Regulations Exception(s)

	The following exception(s) to the Government Contracts
Regulations is (are) invoked for this procurement under
subsection 6(d) - "only one person is capable of performing the
work").

Exclusions and/or Limited Tendering Reasons

	The following limited tendering reason is invoked under the
section of the trade agreement specified:
	Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT) - Article 12 b.:
	"where there is an absence of competition for technical reasons
and the goods or services can be supplied only by a particular
supplier and no alternative or substitute exists;"

Period of the proposed contract or delivery date

	Work must commence on 28 October 2014 and be fully complete by
01 June 2015.
