What do we buy
Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) is to establish a NMSO for government departments, agencies, Crown corporations listed in Schedules I, I.1, II, III of the Financial Administration Act, R.S., 1985, c. F-11, and organizations participating in the Canadian Collaborative Procurement Initiative (CCPI).
This procurement tool is for the supply and delivery of aviation fuel into aircraft at identified airports in Canada to any authorized user.
How do we buy
- Into-plane aviation fuel is procured through the National Fuel Procurement Program (NFPP), which provides a structured approach for procuring bulk fuels to the Federal Government
- The standing offer (SO) is retendered biannually, with prices that require regular refreshes, as they are allowed to fluctuate with the petroleum markets
- Authorised users can issue call-ups up to $1M The PSPC SO authority may issue the call-up for amounts exceeding $1M
- Each requirement is consolidated by airport and fuel type. Only 1 SO is issued for each consolidated requirement
- Award by lowest price per consolidated requirement ensures maximum competition and promotes multiple SOs
- There are 12 suppliers that service 63 airports in every province and territory except Nunavut
- Authorised users are clearly identified in the SOs, but the addition of new users is permitted under the SO
Socio-economic aspects
Enhance competition and facilitate opportunities for small, medium and niche suppliers to do business with the Government of Canada
Value / Savings / Considerations
Economies of scale are generated through the use of SOs, which ease the administrative burden of ordering fuel.
