Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) is issuing a Call for Proposals (CFP) on behalf of the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS).
TBS has a requirement for innovative proposals in support of the Open by Default Pilot Portal. The challenge for which pre-commercial open source solutions will be sought is described below.
Further information on the Open by the Default Pilot Portal can be found at the following website: http://pilot.open.canada.ca/en/open-by-default-pilot.
CHALLENGE
For this CFP, Canada is seeking innovative concepts for pre-commercial open source solutions (“Solution”) to enhance and improve the user’s experience in finding and retrieving information housed on the Open by Default Pilot Portal. Proposed Solutions must also be able to be integrated into the Open Government website’s existing digital infrastructure. The Solution must enhance the user experience of the Open by Default Pilot Portal but given common infrastructure, it is also expected to yield particular improvements to the Open Government website as a whole.
Following the evaluation process, one or more contracts may be awarded to responsive Bidders to develop their concepts into Solutions.
TRADE AGREEMENTS:
This requirement is subject to Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA).
The requirement is excluded from the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) as per Annex 1001.1b-2 Research and Development, all classes, and excluded from the application of the World Trade Organization – Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP) under Appendix 1, Annex 4.
This procurement is limited to Canadian services. The Bidder must also be a Canadian Supplier. A Canadian Supplier means a supplier that has a place of business in Canada.
MANDATORY AND POINT RATED EVALUATION CRITERIA:
The mandatory and point rated evaluation criteria are included in Attachment 3 of the CFP.
