CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL

INQUIRY

Educational and training services

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) has received a complaint (File No. PR-2010-087) from Kelowna Flightcraft CATS Limited Partnership (Kelowna CATS), of Kelowna, British Columbia, concerning a procurement (Solicitation No. W636A-09CATS/E) by the Department of Public Works and Government Services (PWGSC) on behalf of the Department of National Defence. The solicitation is for airborne combat support training. Pursuant to subsection 30.13(2) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act and subsection 7(2) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Procurement Inquiry Regulations, notice is hereby given that the Tribunal has decided to conduct an inquiry into the complaint.

Kelowna CATS alleges that PWGSC indirectly subsidized the incumbent’s proposal by installing equipment in the incumbent’s existing aircraft fleet but not providing other bidders with any offset to reflect this advantage.

Further information may be obtained from the Secretary, Canadian International Trade Tribunal, Standard Life Centre, 15th Floor, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G7, 613-993-3595 (telephone), 613-990-2439 (fax), secretary@citt-tcce.gc.ca (email).
