C-65.1, r. 5.1 - Regulation respecting contracting by public bodies in the field of information technologies
Section 61
Disposition versions
61. A public body may require a quality assurance system, including an ISO standard, or a specification relating to sustainable development and the environment for the carrying out of a contract in the field of information technologies. The public body must specify the requirement in the tender documents.
If such a requirement unduly reduces competition, the public body must allow any supplier or any service provider to submit a tender and grant to the one that fulfils the requirement referred to in the first paragraph a preferential margin not exceeding 10%. In the latter case, the price submitted by such a supplier or such a service provider is, for the sole purpose of determining the successful tenderer, reduced by the preferential margin, without any effect on the price for contract awarding purposes.
The percentage of the preferential margin to be applied must be indicated in the tender documents.
