SMP CONSULTATION PROCESS
In order to ensure a successful procurement of the Standard Military Pattern (SMP) component of the Medium Support Vehicle System (MSVS), Canada wishes to provide Industry with an opportunity to participate in a consultation process as part of this re-solicitation. The information received during these exchanges will help Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), the Department of National Defence (DND) and Industry Canada (IC) to validate the SMP Vehicles procurement approach.
The consultation process will begin with one-on-one meetings with industry. The main objective of the one-on-one meetings is to validate certain aspects of the SMP procurement approach outlined in RFP #W8476-06MSMP/J (issued in December 2011) and to provide an opportunity for Industry to meet with government representatives to discuss their views. Any solutions, ideas or issues raised during the one-on-one meetings or during any other additional sessions will be analyzed for further consideration by Canada.
The one-on-one meetings will be scheduled to take place between January 17 and January 22, 2013 in the National Capital Region (locations to be confirmed at registration).
These one-on-one meetings will only be available to potential SMP vehicles original equipment manufacturers (OEM), members of a joint venture with a potential SMP vehicle OEM, or a party under license from a potential SMP vehicle OEM. Sub-contractors wishing to attend must do so by registering via a potential SMP vehicle OEM as defined above. Each session will be one hour in duration and will be done in person or through teleconference.
REGISTRATION
Interested parties who wish to participate in the SMP consultation process are requested to register by returning the attached Registration Form (Annex A) to the PWGSC Contracting Authority identified herein along with the enclosed Annex B - Rules of Engagement Agreement signed by each company representative who wishes to attend. A scanned copy sent by e-mail is acceptable.
Upon receipt of a signed Annex B and in advance of the one-on-one meeting, the Contracting Authority will, by e-mail, acknowledge the registration, provide the participants with a date for the one-on-one meeting and provide the participants with a list of specific questions.
1. Although Industry may register as many representatives as required, Canada reserves the right to limit the number of representatives that will be allowed to attend at any given time due to space limitation.
2. Canada will provide participating firms with a list of specific questions that Canada wishes to discuss as part of these one-on-one meetings. Interested participants will be provided the opportunity to proposed discussion topics (suggested format will be provided with registration confirmation).
3. Attendees are responsible for their own transportation, accommodation, meals, parking and all other expenses.
4. Participation is not a mandatory requirement. Not participating in a one-on-one meeting or any other consultation will not preclude an interested firm from submitting a proposal.
5. Media will not be permitted to attend the consultation sessions.
6. Canada does not intend to post additional information through MERX relating to the Consultation process; rather Canada intends to communicate with registered participants only up to the issuance of the RFP.
