1. Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN)
An ACAN is a public notice indicating to the supplier community that a department or agency intends to award a contract for goods, services or construction to a pre-identified supplier, thereby allowing other suppliers to signal their interest in bidding, by submitting a statement of capabilities. If no supplier submits a statement of capabilitiesthat meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, on or before the closing date stated in the ACAN, the contracting officer may then proceed with the award to the pre-identified supplier.
2.Definition of the requirement The Department of Correctional Services of Canada has a requirement for the purchase of five (5) portable banned substance recovery water closets (WC) or Drugbuggy Ranger from the company ?Drugloo? to search through the discarded bodily fluids of an inmate into a dry water closet (toilet) in an efficient and sanitary manner.
3. Criteria for assessment of the Statement of Capabilities (Minimum Essential Requirements) Any interested supplier must demonstrate by way of a statement of capabilities that its portable banned substance recovery water closets (WC) meets the following requirements: (1) Capable of separating recovered items from human waste without the operator using direct physical contact with the waste. (2) Mobile device that is powered through a battery pack and produced in a compact size capable of being transported to different areas and fitting into a light van or estate vehicle. (3) Captured or separated human waste is stored in a separate, sealed storage tank.
4. Applicability of the trade agreement(s) to the procurement
This procurement is subject to the following trade agreement(s) Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT) North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) World Trade Organization - Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP)
5. Justification for the Pre-Identified Supplier The Drugbuggy Ranger has the following unique technical features not available through other vendors which are required for recovering banned substance from human waste in a secure transport vehicle.
(1) Capable of separating and sanitizing recovered items from human waste without the operator using direct physical contact with the waste.
A method commonly used by inmates to integrate banned substances into federal institutions, is by inserting thesetypes of substances into their body cavity. Once inside, inmates recover them through their own bodily waste. In order to prevent them from doing so, inmates are required to release their human waste prior to them entering the institutional population.Staff members, are then required to search through the human waste and recover any banned substances. For this reason, the equipment is required to be able to perform this action in a sanitary method without the operator being required to have physical contact with the human waste.
(2) Mobile device that is powered through a battery pack and produced in a compact size capable of being transported to different areas and fitting into a light van or estate vehicle.
Frequently, inmates are transported from outside activities back to the institution, during which they attempt to bring back banned substances in their body cavity. In addition, several institutions do not have the infrastructure capabilities of installing one/several permanent banned substance recovery equipment into a specific cell/room. Having equipment that is portable and is capable of performing the necessary tasks by means of being powered by a battery pack is essential in attempting to intercept any banned substances from entering the institutional population. In addition, given that this equipment will be used in light vans or estate vehicles or be moved from one area of an institution to another, it is required to be compact enough to fit into these vehicles or to be easilydisplaced and still perform the desired actions.
(3) Once separated, human waste is stored in a separate, sealed storage tank.
Given that this equipment will be used several times before being emptied and will be placed in vehicles that could be required to travel great distances, it is required that all human waste captured in this equipment and separated from recovered items, be placed in a separate sealed tank from the fresh water tank without the need of physical contact from the operatorto perform this task.
