General Description of Requirement
This Request for Proposals (the “RFP”) provides an opportunity to submit proposals for review by the VPD and, depending on the VPD’s evaluation of proposals, among other factors, to potentially negotiate with the VPD to enter into a contract. EXCEPT WHERE EXPRESSLY STATED OTHERWISE IN APPENDIX 1 TO PART C OF THE RFP: (I) NO PART OF THE RFP CONSISTS OF AN OFFER BY THE VPD TO ENTER INTO ANY CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIP; AND (II) NO PART OF THE RFP IS LEGALLY BINDING ON THE VPD.
The RFP concerns the VPD’s interest in procuring physical rehabilitation services for Vancouver Police Department members, sworn and civilian, at VPD facilities. Details of the VPD’s objectives and requirements to which the RFP relates are set out in Part B of the RFP. The VPD welcomes proposals that are responsive to this RFP (“Proposals”) respecting innovative or novel approaches to the VPD’s objectives and requirements.
Only the following entities, which responded to the VPD’s Request for Expressions of Interest No. VPD2020924 are qualified to participate in the RFP:
(a) Coast Performance Rehabilitation Inc.
(b) Physiofocus Health Services Corp.
(c) Valour Physiotherapy and Health Inc.
The VPD is interested in selecting an entity, which is not, by the terms hereof, barred from submitting a Proposal, and which does submit a Proposal (each such entity, a “Proponent”) with the capability and experience to efficiently and cost-effectively meet the objectives and requirements described in the RFP. The VPD currently expects to select such a Proponent and then enter into negotiations with that Proponent, which will conclude in the execution of a contract between the Proponent and the VPD (such a contract, an “Agreement”). However, the VPD may: (i) decline to select any Proponent; (ii) decline to enter into any Agreement; (iii) select multiple Proponents for negotiation; or (iv) enter into one or more agreements respecting the subject matter of the RFP with one or more Proponents or other entities at any time. The VPD may also terminate the RFP at any time.
