The Department of National Defence is soliciting bids for 100 inflators for diver’s buoyancy compensators, part number BC911117, manufactured by APEKS MARINE EQUIPMENT LTD, with an NCAGE code of U5360, under GSIN 4220. The items are to be delivered in quantities of 50 KT each to CFB Halifax and CFB Esquimalt, with all deliveries required under DDP Incoterms® 2020, meaning the contractor bears all costs and risks until the goods are delivered to the final destination. Bidders may propose equivalent or substitute products but must provide complete brand, model, part number, and NCAGE details. All items must conform to the latest specifications in effect at bid closing, retain at least 75% of their authorized 60-month shelf life upon delivery, and comply with Canadian Forces packaging, marking, and preservation standards including D-LM-008-036/SF-000 and D-LM-008-002/SF-001. Packaging must be in 1 KT units per package with UCC/EAN-128 barcodes using AI 241 or AI 7001 for item and package identification, accompanied by human-readable text below the barcode, and all markings must include specification number, manufacturer name, cure date, manufacture date, and expiration date as specified in D2000C and D2001C. Bids are evaluated using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) process where technical compliance is a mandatory threshold and price determines award among responsive bids. Technical acceptability requires correct part number and NCAGE, provision of full specifications and literature for substituted products, and assurance that warranties remain unaffected. Financial evaluation occurs only after technical acceptability is confirmed, assessed on an item-by-item basis under SACC Clause A0222T. The contract requires adherence to Canadian Content Certification, with records retained for six years; prohibits asbestos unless no feasible alternative exists; mandates compliance with ISO 9001:2015 quality standards through D5540C and supporting documents; and governs all terms under Ontario law. Payment processing is handled electronically via email to designated accounts in Halifax and Esquimalt using invoice codes W010B and W0103, with no use of federal invoicing platforms. All submissions
