with a possible option for one camera.

3.	Sourcing Strategy
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the World Trade
Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP), the

4.	Enquiries - Bid Solicitation
All enquiries must be submitted in writing to the Contracting
Authority no later than five (5) working days before the bid
closing date.  Enquiries received after that time may not be
answered.

Bidders should reference as accurately as possible the numbered
item of the bid solicitation to which the enquiry relates. Care
should be taken by bidders to explain each question in
sufficient detail in order to enable Canada to provide an
accurate answer. Technical enquiries that are of a proprietary
nature must be clearly marked "proprietary" at each relevant
item. Items identified as "proprietary" will be treated as such
except where Canada determines that the enquiry is not of a
proprietary nature. Canada may edit the question(s) or may
request that the Bidder do so, so that the proprietary nature of
the question(s) is eliminated and the enquiry can be answered to
all bidders. Enquiries not submitted in a form that can be
distributed to all bidders may not be answered by Canada.
	
5.	Debriefings
Bidders may request a debriefing on the results of the bid
solicitation process. Bidders should make the request to the
Contracting Authority within 15 working days of receipt of the
results of the bid solicitation process. The debriefing may be
in writing, by telephone or in person.
