Legal text for SACC item

The benefits that apply to this procurement are contained in: Section 10, Co-operation Agreement between the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation (IRC) and the Department of National Defence (DND) concerning the restoration and clean-up of DEW sites within the Inuvialuit Settlement Region, clauses:

  • 6.1 DND and the IRC will identify and advise the Inuvialuit of actual and potential business opportunities arising from the Work, and facilitate Inuvialuit involvement in such activities by following the procedures set out in this paragraph.
    1. DND shall include as a term in all contracts between DND and a Contractor for Work that, where the Contractor intends to subcontract or procure goods for Work, the Contractor will first solicit bids from qualified businesses on the list of Inuvialuit Businesses referred to in paragraph 5.2. This process shall not limit other qualified Inuvialuit businesses from bidding as well. At the same time, solicitation documents shall also be provided to the IRC. DND and its Contractors shall be held blameless if qualified Inuvialuit Businesses were not solicited because their name did not appear on the list provided by the IRC.
