ITQ – Goods Template

How to use this template

1
Complete the Timetable (Issued On and Respond By dates), and the Requesting Department contact information.

Complete the Product Requirements section with all the necessary goods to be purchased.

2
Email an identical copy to each supplier, noting in the email the Respond By date.
3
After the Respond By date, evaluate all received quotations, giving Ontario Businesses a 10% preference using either Price Only or Rated Criteria:

Notes:

  • Keep on file any “no quotation” responses from suppliers who decline to quote. Make sure the reason for the decline is included.
  • There is no obligation to make a purchase resulting from any quotation solicitation.
  • If a non-Ontario business is awarded, a Non-Ontario Business Justification Form (NOBJ) must be completed.
4
Ensure the Supplier Acknowledgement is completed and signed by the supplier to confirm:

  • They understand and comply with the specified General Instructions and Conditions.
  • Their status as an Ontario or Non-Ontario Business
