Canada has an initial requirement for a commercially available for Enterprise Backup and Restore Software Solution (the "Software Solution") for approximately 70 Terabytes (TB). The required Software Solution must include the Licensed Software, a 12-month warranty, software maintenance and support, and documentation. Training and professional services must also be provided, if requested. The bid solicitation is intended to result in the award of a contract for 1 year, plus 6 one-year irrevocable option(s) allowing Canada to extend the term of the contract.
All parts of the Software Solution must be available to the Client Users 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, in English, and operate at all times in accordance with the Statement of Requirements in the Client's operational environment described in Annex 'A' - Statement of Requirements. The Software Solution must work within the technical environment described in the Annex 'A' - Statement of Requirements. The term "Client User" refers to the employees of the Government of Canada, the Minister's office and staff, and other individuals authorized by the Client to perform services in relation to the business and affairs of the Client, including contractors or consultants performing work for the Client from time to time. Although Canada may make the Software Solution available to any or all the Clients, this bid solicitation does not preclude Canada from using another method of supply for entities of the Government of Canada with the same or similar needs.
Passport Canada is the Initial Client that will use the Software Solution. However, this bid solicitation will also allow Canada to make the Software Solution available to any Government Department, Departmental Corporation or Agency, or other body of the Government of Canada (including all those described in the Financial Administration Act, as amended from time to time) or any other party for which the Department of Public Works and Government Services is authorized to act from time to time under section 16 of the Department of Public Works and Government Services Act (each a "Client").
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP), the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Canada-Chile Free Trade Agreement (CCFTA), the Canada-Colombia Free Trade Agreement, the Canada-Peru Free Trade Agreement and the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT).
There is a security requirement associated with this procurement. For additional information, see Part 6 - Security, Financial and Other Requirements, and Part 7 - Resulting Contract Clauses. Bidders should consult the "Security Requirements on PWGSC Bid Solicitations - Instructions for Bidders" document on the Departmental Standard Procurement Documents: (http://www.pwgsc.gc.ca/acquisitions/text/plain/plain-e.html#top) Website.
