CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL
DETERMINATION
Professional, administrative and management support services
Notice is hereby given that, after completing its inquiry, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) made a determination (File No. PR-2016-042) on March 2, 2017, with respect to a complaint filed by Colliers Project Leaders Inc. and Tiree Facility Solutions Inc. in Joint Venture (Colliers/Tiree), of Ottawa, Ontario, 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. EP863-170787/A) by the Department of Public Works and Government Services (PWGSC). The solicitation was for the supply of project management support services for the major Crown projects sector.
Colliers/Tiree alleged that PWGSC erred in the financial evaluation of Colliers/Tiree's proposal, resulting in its rejection.
Having examined the evidence presented by the parties and considered the provisions of the Agreement on Internal Trade, the North American Free Trade Agreement and the Agreement on Government Procurement, the Tribunal determined that the complaint was valid.
Further information may be obtained from the Registrar, Canadian International Trade Tribunal Secretariat, 333 Laurier Avenue West, 15th Floor, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G7, 613-993-3595 (telephone), 613-990-2439 (fax), citt-tcce@tribunal.gc.ca (email).
