Buses, Electric
Public summary
Generated or condensed from imported source text. Verify before bidding.
This appears to be an ongoing Government of Canada opportunity to qualify suppliers of electric buses through a Supply Arrangement, managed by Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC). It is not itself a purchase contract. Suppliers that meet the technical requirements may be placed on the Supply Arrangement and could then be invited to bid on future, specific bus contracts. The opportunity covers three possible product groups: - Group 1: Electric shuttle buses - Group 2: Electric school buses - Group 3: Electric commuter coach buses A supplier may submit an arrangement for one, two, or all three groups. Buses could be delivered across Canada, including the listed provinces and territories, generally excluding the National Capital Region in Quebec and Ontario. The notice indicates that qualification is ongoing and that the arrangement has no defined end date. It also states that Amendment 007 modifies the Supply Arrangement Authority. Key points for a potentially interested Canadian business: - Technical capabilities and product specifications will be evaluated by Canada. - Only suppliers awarded a Supply Arrangement may bid on later individual solicitations under it. - Joining the arrangement alone does not create a legally binding purchase contract or guarantee future work. - Documents may be submitted in English or French. - Electronic submission through epost Connect is strongly encouraged. - The listed contacts are Jacques Legault and Donna Serra at PWGSC: (819) 360-2140 or (613) 297-2635; [email protected] and [email protected]. The supplied closing date is April 16, 2046 at 3:00 p.m., which should be checked carefully because it may reflect the ongoing nature of the opportunity or a data-entry issue. Review the official tender notice, all specifications, amendments—including Amendment 007—and submission instructions before deciding whether to prepare an arrangement. Bid Maple is not affiliated with the Government of Canada, and the business should verify all details on the official Canada Buys/GETS notice before submitting.

A supply arrangement is a method of supply used by Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) to procure goods and services. A supply arrangement is an arrangement between Canada and pre-qualified suppliers that allows identified users to solicit bids from a pool of pre-qualified suppliers for specific requirements within the scope of a supply arrangement. A supply arrangement is not a contract for the provision of the goods and services described in it and neither party is legally bound as a result of signing a supply arrangement alone. The intent of a supply arrangement is to establish a framework to permit expeditious processing of individual bid solicitations which result in legally binding contracts for the goods and services described in those bid solicitations. All arrangements submitted under this Request for Supply Arrangement (RFSA) will be evaluated by Canada. Suppliers meeting the technical capabilities will be placed on the SA. Only suppliers who have been pre-qualified and have been awarded an SA will be allowed to submit bids for individual RFPs. The Supply Arrangement has no defined end-date and will remain valid until such time as Canada no longer considers it to be advantageous to use it. Suppliers will have an on-going opportunity for qualification. A continuous Notice will remain on the Government Electronic Tendering Service (GETS) to allow new Suppliers to become qualified. Existing qualified Suppliers, who have been issued a supply arrangement, will not be required to submit a new arrangement. The existing qualified Suppliers will have an on-going opportunity during the SA to qualify new products.Delivery Date: Above-mentioned The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any procurement. Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
