The Department of National Defence is procuring two R&S Handheld Spectrum Analyzers, identified by part number FSH13.23/FSH-K41 and MMR 1314.2000.23-1304.5612.02:D0894, under solicitation W8486-270868/A, issued against the Supply Arrangement series E60HN-16ELEC. Only pre-qualified suppliers holding this specific supply arrangement are eligible to bid, and submissions must be made electronically via email to [email hidden] by June 11, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST. Bids must be structured in four mandatory sections: Technical Bid, Financial Bid, Certifications, and Additional Information, with pricing included exclusively in the Financial Bid and presented in firm Canadian dollars on a Delivered Duty Paid basis to the designated Montreal address. The contract requires delivery of all items no later than August 17, 2026, with each unit needing a Certificate of Calibration dated within 90 days of delivery, accompanied by the MMR and the complete serial number provided to the Department prior to shipment. Packaging must comply with environmentally preferable standards, using reusable, returnable, or recyclable materials, excluding packaging tape, while specialized packaging is permitted only if technical performance is essential. Payment will be made at a firm unit price via direct deposit or electronic data interchange, with customs duties included and applicable GST or HST charged separately. All bidders must meet mandatory technical criteria outlined in Annex G, and failure to comply at any stage renders the bid non-responsive. The contract is governed by Ontario law, subject to the Access to Information Act, and incorporates general conditions for medium complexity goods. Disputes are to be resolved through open communication, cooperation, and, if necessary, alternative dispute resolution. Environmental certifications like ISO 14001 or ENERGYSTAR are encouraged but not mandatory, and bids may be challenged through the Office of the Procurement Ombudsman or the Canadian International Trade Tribunal.
