C-65.1, r. 4 - Regulation respecting certain service contracts of public bodies
Section 40.14
Disposition versions
40.14. The Ministère des Transports and the Société québécoise des infrastructures may, when the procurement requirements are recurrent and the number of requests, the rate or frequency at which they are to be performed is uncertain, enter into a task order contract with one or more service providers for architecture or engineering services relating to construction work. The Ministère and the Société may only request a quality demonstration, which is evaluated in accordance with the evaluation conditions in sections 1 to 7 of Schedule 2, and all tenders that obtain the acceptable level of performance are retained.
The public body concerned must indicate in the tender documents the extent of the services that the public body intends to request or, failing that, the approximate monetary value of the contract, the criteria for distributing performance requests among service providers, as well as the applicable fees. Performance requests are distributed to the service providers retained in a fair manner that takes into account the objectives set out in subparagraphs 2 and 6 of the first paragraph of section 2 of the Act.
Where the Ministère des Transports or the Société québécoise des infrastructures enters into a contract under this section, it must publish, once a year, a notice in the electronic tendering system in order to enable the selection of one or more additional service providers for the purpose of carrying out the performance requests resulting from the contract. The notice must indicate, in addition to the estimated amount of the expenditure for the remaining period of the contract, the information provided for in the second paragraph of section 4, with the necessary modifications. The third paragraph of section 4 applies. In addition, the tender documents are adapted and used again for selecting one or more additional service providers.
Sections 15.1, 17, 18, 26 and 28 apply to a contract awarding process conducted according to the provisions of this section. However, pursuant to section 28, the public body does not send the tenderer its rank according to its quality score.
