The project duration is specified as 60 months. Qualified proponents must sign and submit a Confidentiality Agreement to gain access to the entire bid package and additional project details. The solicitation is restricted to hard copy submissions only, submitted via email to the specified contact.

This RFP is subject to the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA) and North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

All submissions must be in English unless otherwise specified in the bid document.
