Notice is hereby given that, after completing its inquiry, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal made a determination (File No. PR-2019-060) on June 29, 2020, with respect to a complaint filed by Valley Associates – Global Security Corporation (Valley Associates), 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. W8476-195904/A) by the Department of Public Works and Government Services on behalf of the Department of National Defence. The solicitation was for high-risk search equipment and multi-threat detection tools.
