2.5  Promotion of Direct Deposit Initiative

The following information is not related to the solicitation process:

Corporate Accounting is promoting the registration of RCMP suppliers for the upcoming change in the
payment process.

register with the RCMP for direct deposit.  Please contact RCMP Corporate Accounting by email to
receive a form entitled Recipient Electronic Payment Registration Request along with instructions for
completion of the form.

Should you have any questions regarding the Cheque Standardization Project or if you want to
register, please contact the following email: corporate_accounting@rcmp-grc.gc.ca

Section I:  Technical Offer
a. The technical offer consists of the following:
i. Offer Submission Form: Offerors are requested to include the Offer Submission Form –
Attachment 1 to Part 3 with their offers. It provides a common form in which Offerors can
provide information required for evaluation and Standing Offer issuance, such as a
contact name, etc. If Canada determines that the information required by the Offer
Submission Form is incomplete or requires correction, Canada will provide the Offeror
with an opportunity to do so.
ii. Substantiation of Technical Compliance:
a. Mandatory Technical Criteria: The technical offer must substantiate the
compliance with the specific articles of Attachment 1 to Part 4, which is the
requested format for providing the substantiation.  The substantiation must not
simply be a repetition of the requirement(s), but must explain and demonstrate how
the Offeror will meet the requirements and carry out the required Work. Simply
stating that the Offeror or its proposed solution or resources comply is not sufficient.
Where Canada determines that the substantiation is not complete, the Offeror will
be considered non-responsive and disqualified. The substantiation may refer to
additional documentation submitted with the offer - this information can be
referenced in the "Substantiation" column of Attachment 1 to Part 4, where Offerors
are requested to indicate where in the offer the reference material can be found,
including the title of the document, and the page and paragraph numbers; where the
reference is not sufficiently precise, Canada may request that the Offeror direct
Canada to the appropriate location in the documentation.
iii. Previous Similar Projects: Where the offer must include a description of previous
similar projects: (i) a project must have been completed by the Offeror itself (and cannot
include the experience of any subcontractor or any affiliate of the Offeror); (ii) a project
must have been completed by the offer closing date; (iii) each project description must
include, at minimum, the name and either the telephone number or e-mail address of a
client reference; and (iv) if more similar projects are provided than requested, Canada
will decide in its discretion which projects will be evaluated. A project will be considered
"similar" to the Work to be performed under any resulting contract if the project was for
the performance of work that closely matches the tasks and deliverables identified in the
Statement of Work or Statement of Requirement at Annex A.
iv. For Proposed Resources: The technical offer must include résumés for the resource(s)
as identified in Attachment 1 to Part 4. The Technical offer must demonstrate that each
proposed individual meets the qualification requirements described (including any

 Solicitation No. – Nº de l’invitation :
202504062

11

educational requirements, work experience requirements, and professional designation
or membership requirements). With respect to the proposed resources:
(A) Proposed resources may be employees of the Offeror only.
(B) For educational requirements for a particular degree, designation or certificate,
Canada will only consider educational programs that were successfully completed
by the resource by the time of offer closing.  If the degree, designation or
certification was issued by an educational institution outside of Canada, the Offeror
is requested to provide a copy of the results of the academic credential assessment
and qualification recognition service issued by one of the members of the Alliance of
Credential Evaluation Services of Canada (ACESC). If the Offeror has not included
the copy of the results in its offer, the Standing Offer Authority will provide an
opportunity to the Offeror to submit it during the evaluation period.  If the Offeror has
not submitted the copy of the results within 2 working days of the request by the
Standing Offer Authority, its offer will be declared non-responsive. Offerors should
note that in addition to providing a copy of the results of the academic credential
assessment and qualification recognition service, Offerors are also required to
provide a copy of the original degree, designation, certificate or any other document
required as per the offer solicitation as proof of education.
(C) For requirements relating to professional designation or membership, the resource
must have the required designation or membership by the time of offer closing and
must continue, where applicable, to be a member in good standing of the profession
or membership throughout the evaluation period and Standing Offer Period.  Where
the designation or membership must be demonstrated through a certification,
diploma or degree, such document must be current, valid and issued by the entity
specified in this solicitation.  If the entity is not specified, the issuer must have been
an accredited or otherwise recognized body, institution or entity at the time the
document was issued.  If the degree, diploma or certification was issued by an
educational institution outside of Canada, the Offeror is requested to provide a copy
of the results of the academic credential assessment and qualification recognition
service issued by one of the members of the Alliance of Credential Evaluation
Services of Canada (ACESC). If the Offeror has not included the copy of the results
in its offer, the Standing Offer Authority will provide an opportunity to the Offeror to
submit it during the evaluation period.  If the Offeror has not submitted the copy of
the results within 2 working days of the request by the Standing Offer Authority, its
offer will be declared non-responsive. Offerors should note that in addition to
providing a copy of the results of the academic credential assessment and
qualification recognition service, Offerors are also required to provide a copy of the
original degree, designation, certificate or any other document required as per the
offer solicitation as proof of professional designation or membership.
(D) For work experience, Canada will not consider experience gained as part of an
educational program, except for experience gained through a formal co-operative
program at a post-secondary institution.
(E) For any requirements that specify a particular time period (e.g., 2 years) of work
experience, Canada will disregard any information about experience if the technical
offer does not include the relevant dates (month and year) for the experience
claimed (i.e., the start date and end date). Canada will evaluate only the duration
that the resource actually worked on a project or projects (from their start date to
end date), instead of the overall start and end date of a project or a combination of
projects in which a resource has participated.
(F) For work experience to be considered by Canada, the technical offer must not
simply indicate the title of the individual's position, but must demonstrate that the
resource has the required work experience by explaining the responsibilities and
work performed by the individual while in that position. Only listing experience
without providing any supporting data to describe responsibilities, duties and
relevance to the requirement, or reusing the same wording as the qualification
requirements, will not be considered "demonstrated" for the purposes of the
assessment. The Offeror should provide complete details as to where, when, month
and year, and how, through which activities/responsibilities, the stated qualifications
/ experience were obtained.  In situations in which a proposed resource worked at
the same time on more than one project, the duration of any overlapping time period
will be counted only once toward any requirements that relate to the individual's
length of experience.

v. Client reference Contact Information:
(A) The Offeror must provide client references.  The client reference must each
confirm, if requested by Canada, if the information required by mandatory criteria
M3 of Attachment 1 to Part 4.
(B) The form of question to be used to request confirmation from client references is
as follows:
Sample Question to Client reference: “Has the Offeror provided your
organization with CCTV installation services, within the last 5 years?
___ Yes, the Offeror has provided my organization with the services described
above.
___ No, the Offeror has not provided my organization with the services
described above.
___ I am unwilling or unable to provide any information about the services
described above.
(C) For each client reference, the Offeror must, at a minimum, provide the name and
e-mail address for a contact person. If only the telephone number is provided, it
will be used to call to request the e-mail address and the reference check will be
done by e-mail.
Offerors are also requested to include the title of the contact person. It is the sole
responsibility of the Offeror to ensure that it provides a contact who is
knowledgeable about the services the Offeror has provided to its client and who
is willing to act as a client reference. Crown references will be accepted.
vi. Corporate Profile: The Offeror is requested to provide a corporate profile, which should
include an overview of the Offeror. The Offeror is requested to provide a brief description
of its size, corporate structure, years in business, business activities, major clients,
number of employees and their geographic presence. This information is requested for
information purposes only and will not be evaluated.
Section II:  Financial Offer

a. Offerors must submit their financial offer in accordance with the Pricing Schedule
provided in Attachment 2 to Part 3. The total amount of Applicable Taxes must be
shown separately, if applicable. Unless otherwise indicated, Offerors must include a

Canada may hire any independent consultant, or use any Government resources, to
evaluate any offer. Not all members of the evaluation team will necessarily participate in all
aspects of the evaluation.

4.1.1 Technical Evaluation

4.1.1.1 Mandatory Technical Criteria

a. Canada will review each offer for compliance with the mandatory technical
criteria of the solicitation of offers. Any element of the technical criteria
identified specifically with the words “must” or “mandatory” is a mandatory
requirement.

b. For the mandatory technical criteria see Attachment 1 to Part 4.

4.1.1.2  Reference Checks

a. Whether or not to conduct reference checks is discretionary. However, if
Canada chooses to conduct reference checks for any given mandatory
requirement, it will check the references for that requirement for all
offerors who have not, at that point, been found non-responsive.
b. For reference checks, Canada will conduct the reference check in writing
by email. Canada will send all email reference check requests to contacts
supplied by all the Offerors within 48-hour period day using the email
address provided in the offer. An offeror will not meet the mandatory
experience requirement (as applicable) unless the response is received
within 5 working days of the date that Canada's email was sent.
c. On the third working day after sending out the reference check request, if
Canada has not received a response, Canada will notify the Offeror by
email, to allow the Offeror to contact its reference directly to ensure that it
responds to Canada within 5 working days. If the individual named by a
Offeror is unavailable when required during the evaluation period, the
Offeror may provide the name and email address of an alternate contact
person from the same client and/or project. Offerors will only be provided
with this opportunity once for each client, and only if the originally named

the original contact person indicates that he or she is unwilling or unable
to respond). The 5 working days will not be extended to provide
additional time for the new contact to respond.
d. Wherever information provided by a reference differs from the information
supplied by the Offeror, the information supplied by the reference will be
the information evaluated.
e. An offeror will not meet the mandatory experience requirement (as
applicable) if (1) the reference client states he or she is unable or
unwilling to provide the information requested, or (2) the client reference
is not a client of the Offeror itself (for example, the client cannot be the
client of an affiliate of the Offeror instead of being a client of the Offeror
itself). Nor will a mandatory be met if the client is itself an affiliate or other
entity that does not deal at arm's length with the Offeror.
