BACKGROUND The previously posted Sleeping Bag System (SBS) Request for Proposal (RFP), W8486-151419/A, was intended for the procurement of a man-portable Sleeping Bag System for the Canadian Armed Forces, to be used by personnel operating in consistently changing terrain in tropical, subtropical, temperate and polar conditions. The RFP W8486-151419/A was cancelled 12 May, 2015.
NATURE OF LETTER OF INTEREST
The purpose of this Letter of Interest (LOI) is to invite industry members from all sectors of the supply chain, relevant to this product, to seek appointments for individual meetings with members of the SBS Project Team. The intended purpose of these 'one-on-one' meetings is to solicit feedback from industry on the previously posted and cancelled SBS RFP W8486-151419/A. Meetings are not limited to prime contractors. Meetings are not limited to Canadian Suppliers.
In light of the number of bidder questions and concerns raised during the course of the RFP posting on Buy and Sell, DND would like to examine Industry's perspective on any issues with respect to the requirements outlined in the previously posted Specification, Statement of Work and Bid Evaluation Plan for the Sleeping Bag System.
Resulting from the one-on-one industry meetings, DND may release a 2nd LOI with a draft Specification and/or list of specific questions for review and formal response by Industry. The objective of which is to develop a new RFP.
This Letter of Interest (LOI) is not a bid solicitation. This LOI will not result in the award of any contract; therefore, potential suppliers of any goods or services described in this LOI should not earmark stock or facilities, nor allocate resources, as a result of any information contained in this LOI. Nor will this LOI result in the creation of any source list; therefore, whether or not any potential supplier responds to this LOI will not preclude that supplier from participating in any future procurement. Also, the procurement of any of the goods and services described in this LOI will not necessarily follow this LOI. This LOI is simply intended to invite industry representatives to meet with DND for the purpose of soliciting information.
Enquiries regarding this LOI shall be directed to the LOI Authority. Enquiries received after 15 days before the closing date of this LOI may not be answered. Because this is not a bid solicitation, the Government of Canada will not necessarily respond to all enquiries in writing, nor circulate all answers to Industry. Delivery Date: Above-mentioned
