C-27.1 - Municipal Code of Québec

Full text
936.0.14. If, in any of the situations mentioned in the second paragraph, a municipality requires certain technical specifications, it must describe those specifications in terms of performance or functional requirements rather than in terms of descriptive characteristics. If unable to do so, the municipality must provide that any description containing what is equivalent to descriptive characteristics will be considered compliant, and may define how equivalency to such characteristics will be evaluated.
The situations concerned are those
(1)  where, in a call for tenders under article 935 or under a regulation made under article 938.0.1 or 938.0.2, or in any document referred to in such a call for tenders, a municipality requires technical specifications with regard to goods, services or work;
(2)  where, under article 936.0.1 or 936.0.1.1, a municipality evaluates tenders submitted after a call for tenders under article 935 or under a regulation made under article 938.0.1 or 938.0.2 on the basis of the technical specifications of the goods, services or work; and
(3)  where, under articles 936.0.2 and 936.0.3, a municipality establishes a qualification, certification or registration process that takes into account the technical specifications of the goods, services or work.
Technical specifications of goods, services or work include, in particular, their physical or, as applicable, professional characteristics and attributes.
