Recent decisions relating to procurement from the Canadian
International Trade Tribunal (CITT) include the following:
ADR Education
In this case, PWGSC issued a request for a standing offer
(RFSO). The closing date was changed by addendum - first to
December 19, 2011. ADR posted its bid on December 13, 2011 in order
to ensure that it met this closing date. The next day, PWGSC issued
a further amendment, extending the closing date to January 6,
2012.
ADR was not successful in one of the categories it had applied
for. It appeared that the reason for this was that a project that
would have been eligible when the closing date was in December, was
no longer eligible when the closing date was in January. The
decision is not clear, but presumably there was a requirement for
projects completed within a certain number of years from the
closing date.
