The Government of Canada (GC / Canada) established Shared Service Canada (SSC) on August 4, 2011 with the mandate to operate and transform the government's IT infrastructure. Under the umbrella of that dual authority, SSC is responsible for providing its 43 partner organizations with modern, reliable and secure IT infrastructure services that are cost-effective and which contribute to a greener government. In the process, SSC is building a new organization from the ground up.
SSC operates 50 distinct wide area networks interconnecting 3,580 GC-occupied buildings across the 43 partners served by SSC. These networks have been implemented and managed independently and network infrastructure within GC-occupied buildings is generally not shared between departments resulting in duplication of infrastructure and costs.
On July 9, 2013, Canada will host a half-day event to provide a forum for Canada to engage industry in a presentation on the scope, key requirements and procurement strategy for the competitive procurement of Wide Area Network (WAN) services.
The GCNet WAN Services Industry Engagement Day session is open to interested suppliers and associations from the IT industry, as well as interested public servants, with priority being given to IT industry participants. Participants are cordially invited to attend either onsite at the National Capital Region location, or, via videoconferencing at three remote locations in Dartmouth, Calgary and Toronto.
The half-day Industry Engagement Day session will be followed by three days of one-on-one meetings (45 minutes long each) with pre-registered suppliers and vendors
