PART 2 - BIDDER INSTRUCTIONS 2.1

Standard Instructions, Clauses and Conditions

All instructions, clauses and conditions identified in the bid solicitation by number, date and title are set out in the Standard Acquisition Clauses and Conditions Manual (https://buyandsell.gc.ca/policy-andguidelines/standard-acquisition-clauses-and-conditions-manual) issued by Public Works and Government Services Canada. Bidders who submit a bid agree to be bound by the instructions, clauses and conditions of the bid solicitation and accept the clauses and conditions of the resulting contract. The 2003 (2016-04-04) Standard Instructions - Goods or Services - Competitive Requirements, are incorporated by reference into and form part of the bid solicitation. 2.2

Submission of Bids

Bids must be submitted only to Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) Bid Receiving Unit by the date, time and place indicated on page 1 of the bid solicitation. 2.2.1

Improvement of Requirement During Solicitation Period

Should bidders consider that the specifications or Statement of Work contained in the bid solicitation could be improved technically or technologically, bidders are invited to make suggestions, in writing, to the Contracting Authority named in the bid solicitation. Bidders must clearly outline the suggested improvement as well as the reason for the suggestion. Suggestions that do not restrict the level of competition nor favour a particular bidder will be given consideration provided they are submitted to the Contracting Authority at least 5 days before the bid closing date. Canada will have the right to accept or reject any or all suggestions. 2.3

Enquiries - Bid Solicitation

All enquiries must be submitted in writing to the Contracting Authority no later than 5 calendar days before the bid closing date. Enquiries received after that time may not be answered. Bidders should reference as accurately as possible the numbered item of the bid solicitation to which the enquiry relates. Care should be taken by Bidders to explain each question in sufficient detail in order to enable Canada to provide an accurate answer. Technical enquiries that are of a proprietary nature must be clearly marked "proprietary" at each relevant item. Items identified as "proprietary" will be treated as such except where Canada determines that the enquiry is not of a proprietary nature. Canada may edit the question(s) or may request that the Bidder do so, so that the proprietary nature of the question(s) is eliminated, and the enquiry can be answered to all Bidders. Enquiries not submitted in a form that can be distributed to all Bidders may not be answered by Canada. 2.4

Applicable Laws

Any resulting contract must be interpreted and governed, and the relations between the parties determined, by the laws in force in Manitoba. Bidders may, at their discretion, substitute the applicable laws of a Canadian province or territory of their choice without affecting the validity of their bid, by deleting the name of the Canadian province or territory specified and inserting the name of the Canadian province or territory of their choice. If no change is made, it acknowledges that the applicable laws specified are acceptable to the Bidders.

ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS .1

Provide electronic submittals (excluding samples) for information and review in electronic format using the following guidelines: .1

.2

.3

Provide in Portable Document Format (*.pdf) with selectable text and graphics that are readable. Generally, merge documents into one bookmarked document up to 10 mb. Use hierarchical bookmarks to form a table of contents and provide hyperlinks to the subject topic. Include final ratings, parameters, specifications, options, and other pertinent information. In the case where Project Authority returns submittal “Approved As Noted” and includes mark-ups or comments that change originally submitted ratings, parameters, specifications, options, and other pertinent information, correct the documents in the original electronic document prior to submitting the final electronic documents. Highlight specific rating, parameter, specification, option, and other pertinent information when original document includes multiple alternatives. For instance when a range of performance parameters is given, or various sizes are shown, or various options are listed, the applicable item shall be indicated by highlight, circle, or pointer.



.4

.5

1.4

Do not include generalized direction that does not relate to ordering and purchasing the equipment. For instance, notes like, “Coordinate with xxx for final motor horsepower” are not to be transferred to the electronic submittal. In that example only the final coordinated sizes would be indicated. References within this specification that indicate sheet size will refer to electronic sheet (printing) size.

SHOP DRAWINGS AND PRODUCT DATA .1

The term "shop drawings" means drawings, diagrams, illustrations, schedules, performance charts, brochures, product data, and other data which the Contractor provides to illustrate details of a portion of the Work.

.2

When requested for delegated-design, submit shop drawings bearing stamp and signature of qualified professional engineer registered or licensed in the Province of Manitoba.

.3

Indicate materials, methods of construction and attachment or anchorage, erection diagrams, connections, explanatory notes and other information necessary for completion of Work. Where articles or equipment attach or connect to other articles or equipment, indicate that such items have been co-ordinated, regardless of Section under which adjacent items will be supplied and installed. Indicate cross references to design drawings and specifications.

.4

Project Authority will endeavour to review each submission within 10 Working Days.

.5

Adjustments made on shop drawings by Project Authority are not intended to change Contract Price. If adjustments affect value of Work, state such in writing to Project Authority prior to proceeding with Work.

.6

Make changes in shop drawings as Project Authority may require, consistent with Contract Documents. When resubmitting, notify Project Authority in writing of revisions other than those requested.

.7

Accompany submissions with transmittal letter, containing: .1 .2 .3 .4 .5

.8

.9

Submit electronic copy of shop drawings for each requirement requested in specification Sections and as Project Authority may reasonably request.

.10

Submit electronic copy of product data sheets or brochures for requirements requested in specification Sections where shop drawings will not be prepared due to standardized manufacture of product.

.11

Delete information not applicable to project.

.12

Supplement standard information to provide details applicable to project.

.13

If upon review by Project Authority, no errors or omissions are discovered or if only minor corrections are made, copy will be returned and fabrication and installation of Work may proceed. If shop drawings are rejected, noted copy will be returned and resubmission of corrected shop drawings, through same procedure indicated above, must be performed before fabrication and installation of Work may proceed.

.14

Review of shop drawings by Project Authority is for sole purpose of ascertaining conformance with general concept. .1

.2

Review shall not mean that Project Authority approves detail design inherent in shop drawings, responsibility for which shall remain with Contractor submitting same, and such review shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for errors or omissions in shop drawings or of responsibility for meeting requirements of construction and Contract Documents. Without restricting generality of foregoing, Contractor is responsible for dimensions to be confirmed and correlated at job site, for information that pertains solely to fabrication processes or to techniques of construction and installation and for co-ordination of Work of sub-trades.
