Request for Prequalification (RFPQ) to establish a Standing Offer (SO) for Technical Reviews for the Digital Museum of Canada’s (DMC) online projects.
The Museum is seeking Proposals from potential Contractors who have knowledge of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and experience in providing quality assurance reviews and technical reports for online products. This is a one-step two-envelope submission process (Technical and Financial) to select the overall highest ranked Proponent who may then be invited to be included on a Standing Offer (SO) for eventual work required for the Digital Museum of Canada (DMC) managed by the Canadian Museum of History (The Museum), located at 100 Laurier, Gatineau, Quebec.
The online products are produced by the organizations that have been awarded DMC investments. Reviews are done in accordance with the latest official W3C recommendation for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) to level AA or better, and the DMC Technical Requirements (included in the RFPQ documents as Annex C).
The selected Contractor will be required to deliver the Services described in the procurement documents for the following discipline:

Information provided by the Proponents will be evaluated using the established criteria in the RFPQ.
This procurement is subject to Chapter 5 of the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA).
The objective of this RFPQ is to prequalify one (1) Contractor who will be placed on an SO to provide services on an “as and when required” basis for a period of one (1) year from the date of establishment. If mutually agreeable between the Contractor and the Museum, this SO may be extended for up to four (4) additional one-year periods with the same terms and conditions.
Firms that consider themselves qualified to provide these services are invited to submit their Proposals on the forms that are available through MERX or as directed in the procurement documents.
The Museum retains the right to negotiate with the Proponents on any aspect of the procurement.
