A.1 Background of this RFI PWGSC is committed to develop and implement strategies and initiatives that meet the acquisition requirements and expectations of clients departments. The goods and services managed and acquired are diverse and include the management of real property contracts. PWGSC procures services for modernization and subsequent maintenance of elevators in federal buildings.
The modernization of elevators requires contractors/suppliers to furnish all necessary tools and labour to fit-up the elevators to comply with current code requirements and up to date equipment standards. The Maintenance Services requires contractors/suppliers to furnish all necessary tools and labour to maintain, inspect, test and provide software updates and/or upgrades and service the elevating devices. When modernization of elevating devices is required, PWGSC will regularly combine both modernization and maintenance services into one Request for Proposals.
For the last several months, PWGSC has noticed varying degrees of interest from the industry and higher than anticipated bid prices for federal government opportunities in the National Capital Region (NCR) for Modernization of Elevators and subsequent Maintenance Contracts and wants to understand why. PWGSC is currently gathering information from the Industry to improve their procurement strategies and practices for future requirements.
A.2 Purpose of this RFI This RFI is to request suppliers to provide answers to attached questions and also comments to allow Canada to develop a strategy that responds to the needs of client departments, existing and potential suppliers, as well as all Canadians.
