http://www.competitionbureau.gc.ca/eic/site/cb-bc.nsf/eng/home for further information.

A bidder must obtain official bid documents from a distribution service, authorized
by the Minister of Service New Brunswick, in order to submit a bid. The current
authorized distribution services are the
New Brunswick Opportunities Network (NBON) (operated by Service New Brunswick, Province of NB),
BIDS (operated
by Tendering Publications Ltd.) and
MERX (operated by Mediagrif Interactive
Technologies). Failure to submit the official bid documents or provide proof
that the
official bid documents were properly obtained will result in rejection of the

Where the estimated value of the goods or services to be procured is below
the lowest applicable threshold value of any relevant trade agreement, Service
New Brunswick reserves the right to give preferential treatment to a prospective
supplier from New Brunswick or the Atlantic Region. Should this right be exercised,
the following order of priority will apply: a) firstly, New Brunswick manufacturers
if the goods to be procured are manufactured in New Brunswick; b) secondly, New
Brunswick vendors; and c) thirdly, Atlantic Suppliers. The preference will be
applied based
on the price differential
between the lowest acceptable bid and the bid receiving preferential treatment.
Unless otherwise indicated, there shall be no limit on the price differential
under which a preference may be applied. The decision to apply a preference will
be at the sole discretion of Service New Brunswick.

All discounts quoted will be considered to be without limitations.

Payment of invoices is the responsibility of the department or organization to
whom the goods are shipped or services are supplied.

Award of contracts: no contract shall be awarded and no payment shall be made to
a vendor unless authorized by the Minister or his delegates. The Minister may
make an award to the preferred vendor conditional on the negotiation and acceptance
of a detailed contract between the Province and the vendor. In such cases, should
the detailed contract negotiations not be completed in a reasonable period of
time, the Province reserves the right to discontinue negotiations with the vendor
and
subsequently enter into negotiations with the second preferred vendor.

No right or duty, in whole or in part, of the vendor under a contract issued may
be assigned or delegated without the prior consent of the Strategic Procurement
Branch.

Unless the Strategic Procurement Branch has determined otherwise prior to tender
closing, all prices must be extended and totaled.

The province of New Brunswick reserves the right to negotiate pricing, value added
and other savings opportunities with the successful proponent at time of award
and throughout the contract.
