Summary
Every inmate shall be provided, in accordance with the current
CSC directives, with the essential medical and dental care that
he requires.  (Corrections and Conditional Release Act)

This Contract is for the provision of essential medical services
to inmates incarcerated in a Federal Institution.  For security
reasons it is impractical to take each inmate to a private
physician's office in the community.  To meet the obligation as
stipulated in the Corrections and Conditional Release Act, Her
Majesty enters into a personal service contract for the
provision of medical service in the Health Service Centre of the
institution.

The Contractor is responsible for the provision of general
medical services to the inmates and to establish preventative
medicine programs as per Annex A Statement of Work.

Physicians are required for the following institutions:
Regional Treatment Centre;  Rehabilitation Centre;  Matsqui
Institution; Kent Institution; Mountain Institution; Mission
Institution and William Head Institution.   (Addresses to found
in Annex A) 

Multiple contracts may be issued.  Assuming a sufficient number
of bids determined to be fair value to the Crown are received,
up to seven contracts may be awarded to seven different
suppliers that are determined to be fair value to the Crown. 
Each bidder may bid on one institute or more than one institute.

There is a security requirement associated with this
requirement.  For additional information, consult Part 4 -
Evaluation Procedures and Basis of Selection, and Part 6A -
Standing Offer.  Offerors should consult the "Security
