Unless the Central Purchasing Branch has determined otherwise prior to tender
closing, all prices must be extended and totalled.


Award of contracts: no contract shall be awarded and no payment shall be made to
a vendor unless authorized by the Minister or his delegates. The Minister may
make an award to the preferred vendor conditional on the negotiation and acceptance
of a detailed contract between the Province and the vendor. In such cases, should
the detailed contract negotiations not be completed in a reasonable period of
time, the Province reserves the right to discontinue negotiations with the vendor

subsequently enter into negotiations with the second preferred vendor.

interprovincial procurement agreements, the Province of New Brunswick reserves
the right to apply Provincial or regional Preferences, consider local content in

jurisdictions when it is considered to be in the best interests of the Province.
When determining the use of these conditions, the Province will consider, among
other factors, the
extent to which New Brunswick vendors have access to equivalent procurement
opportunities in those jurisdictions and the treatment accorded by those jurisdictions
to bids from New Brunswick vendors. The Province will be the sole judge of whether
these conditions will be used and the extent to which they will be applied.
