DETERMINATION
Financial and related services
Notice is hereby given that, after completing its inquiry, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal made a determination (File No. PR-2019-045) on February 12, 2020, with respect to a complaint filed by AJL Consulting (AJL), of Sherwood Park, Alberta, pursuant to subsection 30.11(1) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, R.S.C., 1985, c. 47 (4th Supp.), concerning a procurement (Solicitation No. 01B68-19-0056) by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC). The solicitation was for the provision of financial expert services in Alberta related to the Farm Debt Mediation Service.
AJL alleged that AAFC erred in failing to award it one of the standing offers resulting from the solicitation, despite its bid being compliant.
Having examined the evidence presented by the parties and considered the provisions of various trade agreements, the Tribunal determined that the complaint was not valid.
