The contract requires the production of 25,000 units of the English-text-first variant (EC 50121) and 10,000 units of the French-text-first variant (EC 50121-1), with optional quantities available for both variants. All items must be packed flat in bundles of 25 per non-returnable shipping skid measuring 48” by 42”, with a maximum stacking height of 54”, and must be accessible via handheld hydraulic pallet movers.

The Final Delivery must be completed in a single shipment no later than September 22, 2026, with the overall contract period running from the effective date until March 31, 2027.

All pricing must be firm, all-inclusive, and in Canadian dollars, covering materials, labor, overhead, profit, printing plates, skids, and transportation. Bidders must submit technical and financial proposals separately, with financial details only appearing in the financial proposal section, and must provide a Fair Price Certification upon request, along with supporting evidence such as invoices or price lists. Proposals must be submitted either electronically via Canada Post’s Connect service, by mail, or in person during specified business hours in Gatineau, Quebec; email and fax submissions are prohibited. Offers must remain valid for 90 business days post-deadline, and only bids submitted in English or French will be accepted. The Government of Canada applies reciprocal procurement policies, limiting eligibility to Canadian suppliers and suppliers from applicable trading partners. There are no security requirements for this contract, but contractors must comply with all applicable laws, obtain and maintain all necessary permits and licenses at their own expense, and ensure confidentiality and warranties survive contract termination. Payment will be made monthly
