MOTOR, ALTERNATING CURRENT

The Department of National Defence is procuring six alternating current motors, part number 801621-163, manufactured by RELIANCE ELECTRIC COMPANY, for delivery to CFB Halifax, Nova Scotia, and six identical units for delivery to CFB Esquimalt, British Columbia, under solicitation W8482-275188/A. The requirement falls under NAICS code 335312 and is subject to a preference for Canadian goods and services. Bidders must specify the exact part number and NCAGE 71956 in their proposal; failure to do so renders the bid non-compliant. Equivalent or substitute products are permitted but must be fully documented with brand, model, part number, and NCAGE for evaluation, and Canada may request samples to verify equivalency in form, fit, function, quality, and performance. All items must comply with Canadian Forces Packaging Specification D-LM-008-036/SF-000, be marked per MIL-STD-129 or NATO TL8100-0100 standards depending on the contractor’s region, and include clear, legible barcodes positioned according to D-LM-008-002/SF-001. Each item must have the manufacturer’s name and part number stamped or etched directly on it. Packaging and labeling must adhere to all hazardous materials regulations under the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act and Hazardous Products Act, with bilingual Safety Data Sheets provided that include the NATO Stock Number. The contract is evaluated on a Lowest Evaluated Price basis, with delivery duty paid, and all offers must be submitted in Canadian dollars inclusive of customs duties and excise taxes but exclusive of applicable taxes. Delivery must occur on or before the dates specified in the Statement of Requirement, and all shipments must include a packing slip and quality assurance documentation. Invoices can only be submitted after delivery and acceptance, supported by a packing slip or waybill, and must be sent to designated payment addresses in Halifax and Victoria, with Canada paying undisputed amounts within 30 days of receipt in acceptable form. The Contractor must maintain a quality management system based on ISO 9001:2015, though registration is not mandatory, and must retain all inspection, test, and quality control records for three years post-contract termination. Canada retains the right to inspect and accept goods at the destination and may terminate for convenience or default, with
