CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL

INQUIRY

Radar equipment, except airborne

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal has received a complaint (File No. PR-2019-060) from Valley Associates – Global Security Corporation (Valley Associates), of Ottawa, Ontario, concerning a procurement (Solicitation No. W8476-195904/A) by the Department of Public Works and Government Services (PWGSC) on behalf of the Department of National Defence. The solicitation is for high-risk search equipment and multi-threat detection tools. Pursuant to subsection 30.13(2) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act and subsection 7(2) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Procurement Inquiry Regulations, notice is hereby given that the Tribunal made a decision on February 20, 2020, to conduct an inquiry into the complaint.

Valley Associates alleges that the winning bidder was non-compliant, that the procurement process gave rise to an apprehension of bias, and that it was denied a reasonable opportunity to react to modifications to the tender specifications.
