Regulations Respecting Government Contracts SOR/87-402 (6.d) and Supply Manual (SM 3.15 (b) iv)), only one supplier (person or firm) is capable of performing the contract. Limited Tendering (SM 3.25.b.iii), a process that allows for deviations from the above procurement practices. In situations, where a specific limited tendering justification can be applied, limiting the number of suppliers, to one or more suppliers, is allowed. While limited tendering is often used for sole source procurements, it can also be used in competitive procurements.
Estimated Cost: $5,945,000.00 tax in.
