SUMMARY DESCRIPTION

The Centre de services scolaire des Grandes-Seigneuries wishes to award a contract for the on-demand acquisition of construction materials for the supply of lumber.

The PUBLIC ORGANIZATION wishes to conclude the contract with a maximum of three (3) SUPPLIERS.

DURATION OF CONTRACT

The contract expires after a period of one (1) year from the date of its entry into force, scheduled for January 2025.

More specifically, the contract comes into force on the date mentioned in the notice of award or, failing that, on the day the notice of award is issued to the SUPPLIER by the PUBLIC BODY, without further notice or formality.

SUBSTITUTION OR EQUIVALENCE

The bidder must submit to the PUBLIC BODY any proposal for substitution or equivalence of materials or equipment no later than November 4, 2024 at 4:00 p.m. in accordance with the procedure set forth in the bidding documents.

PANDEMIC-RELATED MODIFICATIONS - CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)

By submitting its bid during the COVID-19 period, the TENDER is aware of the government measures and economic context in effect on the day of submission. It will therefore not be possible for it to invoke these measures as a case of force majeure in order to avoid its obligations.

It is possible, however, that additional government measures or new unforeseeable events may occur after the contract has been awarded, and thus affect completion times.

In such a case, the PUBLIC BODY and the SERVICE PROVIDER will negotiate in good faith.

RECEIPT OF BIDS

Bids will be received electronically by SEAO or at the owner's premises in hard copy at 1325, rue Industrielle, La Prairie Québec J5R 2E4, before 11:00 a.m., local time, on November 14, 2024.

As of June 1, 2019, the transmission of the same bid electronically and on paper constitutes the filing of multiple bids and will result in the automatic rejection of all bids so filed. If a SUBMITTER wishes to submit a bid electronically, it must transmit a single bid via the SEAO. This may no longer be accompanied by a paper bid, on pain of automatic rejection.

TENDER OPENING

Bids shall be opened publicly, in the presence of a witness, at the place indicated above, immediately after the time and date fixed for the receipt of Bids. BIDDERS may physically attend the Bid opening.

The PUBLIC ORGANIZATION also broadcasts the Bid opening live on the web. Instructions for attending this broadcast are provided below:
