Fiber Laser Cutting System Supply and Delivery

The contract specifies the supply and delivery of a high-precision enclosed fiber-laser cutting system designed for processing aluminum and copper components used in battery prototyping. The system must be an off-the-shelf product, with no modifications or customizations permitted, and must be guaranteed as non-counterfeit to ensure compliance with quality and safety standards. Delivery is required under DAP Ottawa terms per Incoterms® 2020, meaning the seller is responsible for all costs and risks until the equipment is placed at the designated destination in Ottawa, Canada, but the buyer assumes responsibility for unloading and local duties or taxes. The solicitation is issued under the NAICS code 333515, which corresponds to machine tool manufacturing, and is classified as a subcontract opportunity by the National Research Council of Canada, acting on behalf of the Government of Canada. The response deadline is set for July 27, 2026, and the contract is open for bidders to submit proposals through the Canada Buys platform. The place of performance is clearly identified as Ottawa, Canada, with no other locations accepted, and the equipment must be fully operational upon delivery to support immediate integration into ongoing battery development workflows.
