Government of Canada Seeks Innovative Service to Modernize Procurement

(firmenpresse) - GATINEAU, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 04/12/16 -- Public Services and Procurement Canada

Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) today released a Request for Proposal for a web-based procurement service for federal government departments as part of the government's procurement modernization.

This new, modern service will replace the current 20-year-old technology. Moving from a largely paper-based service to an online business model will contribute to greening the Government of Canada's operations. The new procurement service will also speed up and simplify how the government does business and will make it easier for suppliers to find opportunities. The service will allow users to search electronic catalogues for goods and services from pre-qualified suppliers. It will also allow the government to review bids electronically.

The new Government of Canada e-procurement service will be implemented over two years. The contract is expected to be awarded in the fall of 2016.
