HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS (W3931-13KM01/D)
This PWGSC office provides procurement services to the public in English or French.
The Department of National Defence (DND), Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), and Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) require the services of a contractor to provide and manage Health Care Providers (HCPs) on an "as-and-when requested" basis to supplement their workforces in delivering health care and health care support services. Most HCPs needed to supplement DND’s workforces are currently provided through a contract expiring on March 31, 2018. For RCMP and VAC, the provision of HCPs is currently decentralized to regional offices and the services are obtained through departmental individual contracts.
It is expected that the Request For Proposal (RFP) will result in the awarding of three separate contracts (one for each department) to one sole contractor. The contractor will be selected based on its ability to achieve the highest combined rating of technical merit (70%) and price (30%).
The contracts will include options to acquire the services for additional locations in any Canadian region or territory, as well as an option to acquire additional services that are within the scope of the work.
The duration of the contracts will be for an initial period of four years plus a six-month estimated transition period, and options to extend the contract by additional periods up to a maximum of eight years.
The portion of this requirement where service deliveries are in Yellowknife, NT, is subject to the Tlicho Land Claims Agreement andfor service deliveries to Whitehorse, YT, the Ta’an Kwach’an Council Final Agreement and the Kwanlin Dun First Nation Final Agreement apply.
This procurement is Conditionally Limited (Code 0-4) as defined by the Canadian Content Policy.
This procurement is not subject to Trade Agreements as Health Services are excluded from the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the World Trade Organization - Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP), the Canada-Chile Free Trade Agreement (CCFTA), the Canada Peru Free Trade Agreement (CPFTA) and the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT).
There are security requirements associated with this requirement. For additional information, consult Part 6 - Security, Financial and Other Requirements, and Part 7 Resulting Contract Clauses.
This requirement is the third generation of its kind for DND. Under the first procurement process in 2000, a contract was awarded to provide and manage HCPs from March 1, 2001 to March 31, 2005. The subsequent (and incumbent) contract was issued by PWGSC on behalf of DND in December 2004 for the provisioning and management of a workforce of health service providers tosupplement internal health service resources at thirty-six military installations located across Canada.
Due to the nature of work and the high number of resources required on a recurring basis (around 500 resources) from the contractor, there will bea need for a transition period that will consist of a gradual ramp-up approach that allows the future contractor to hire the HCPs and provide the necessary training. During the transition period, the demand for services provided by the outgoing contractor will be gradually reduced and the number of HCPs and requirements related to the new contract will gradually increase until the maximum contract capacity is reached at the end of the transition period.
