Public summary

Generated or condensed from imported source text. Verify before bidding.

PSPC is seeking suppliers for a Software Licensing Supply Arrangement (SLSA). This arrangement appears intended for off-the-shelf software licences, plus related software maintenance and support services. It does not cover IT professional services, hardware, appliance solutions, hosted solutions, or cloud services such as SaaS, IaaS, or PaaS. An arrangement would not itself guarantee work or create a contract. It would provide a procurement vehicle through which future software requirements may be competed; a contract would arise only if Canada later awards one. The notice lists Canada-wide work, with Gatineau, Quebec shown as the location. Offers are directed to [email protected], and the RFSA document islinked through the official Ariba source: http://discovery.ariba.com/rfx/16043971. The tender record shows an open status and a closing date of September 29, 2028 at 10:00 a.m., but the description refers to an earlier SLSA and says existing arrangements expire September 30, 2023. This apparent inconsistency should be clarified using the current official tender documents before relying on the deadline or submitting an offer. Review the RFSA for mandatory requirements, eligible software categories, submission instructions, security or supplier conditions, and any amendments. This opportunity potentially matches a business that supplies commercial off-the-shelf software and related maintenance, but the official notice must be verified before bidding.
