Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) for the Cyber Security Procurement Vehicle (…

This Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) is the first two phases of the CSPV. It continues the agile procurement process started by Shared Services Canada (SSC) on behalf of the Government of Canada in 2019. Suppliers are invited to pre-qualify in accordance with the terms and conditions of this ITQ, described in Phases 1 and 2, in order to become “Qualified Respondents or QRs” for any later phases of the CSPV, including Phases 3 and 4. Only Qualified Respondents will be permitted to bid on any subsequent solicitations issued under the CSPV.
This ITQ is not a solicitation of bids or tenders. No contract will be awarded as a result of the activities during the ITQ phase of the CSPV.
The ITQ submission deadline is included on the front page of the ITQ document and is detailed in the P2P portal.
In 2016, SSC adopted a new system called Procure-to-Pay (P2P) to electronically manage procurement to payment processes. P2P integrates accounts payable and procurement processes, allows for automated work routing and email notifications, provides end-to-end electronic approvals and enables SSC to move towards paperless processing. SSC's Suppliers will be required to interface with the SSC P2P portal for this Invitation to Qualify (ITQ).
Bidders may register on the SSC P2P Portal for this Invitation to Qualify (ITQ).
