1. DEFINITION OF REQUIREMENTS

Public Works and Government Services Canada on behalf of the Crown as a whole intends to solicit a bid and negotiate with Gartner Canada Co. to renew the National Master Standing Offer for proprietary information technology research subscriptions, advice, analysis and applied research services related to their products on an as and when requested basis to Canadian government departments, corporations and agencies.

The call-up limitation is $100,000 including GST/HST as applicable. Requirements exceeding $100,000 will be sent to PWGSC for processing and approval.

Products and services offered will consist of proprietary subscriptions for research and advisory services via the internet such as Gartner Core Research (Reference and Advisory level), structured programs such as Gartner Workshops and Gartner Benchmarking and packaged applied research relating directly to the material within the research and advisory service subscriptions.

If other potential suppliers submit statements of capabilities during the fifteen calendar day posting period that meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, the government will proceed to a full tendering process on either the government's electronic tendering service or through traditional means, in order to issue the National Master Standing Offer.

If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a statement of capabilities meeting the requirements set out in the ACAN, a National Master Standing Offer will be issued to the pre-selected supplier.

Suppliers who consider themselves fully qualified and available to meet the specified requirements may submit a statement of capabilities in writing to the contact person identified in this Notice on or before the closing date of this Notice. The statement of capabilities must clearly demonstrate how the supplier meets the advertised requirements.

Security Requirement attached to this National Master Standing Offer: 1.

The Contractor/Offeror personnel requiring access to PROTECTED information, assets or sensitive work site(s) must EACH hold a valid RELIABILITY STATUS, granted or approved by CISD/PWGSC. 3. The Contractor/Offeror MUST NOT remove any PROTECTED information or assets from the identified work site(s), and the Contractor/Offeror must ensure that its personnel are made aware of and comply with this restriction. 4. Subcontracts which contain security requirements are NOT to be awarded without the prior written permission of CISD/PWGSC. 5. The Contractor/Offeror must comply with the provisions of the: a. Security Requirements Check List and security guide (if applicable), attached at Annex _____; b. Industrial Security Manual (Latest Edition).
