EXCPT0001819_CNTR0027649 - Contract extension for Content Management Solution (CMS)

In 2019, the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) initiated a prequalification process followed by a public call for tenders for a Content Management Solution (CMS) over a 5-year period, including renewal options. Episerver, rebranded as OPTIMIZELY NORTH AMERICA INC., was selected. BDC intends to reassess the market for a platform that would consolidate both the CMS and Digital Assess Management (DAM) solutions during this extension period in 2026. This extension will allow BDC to complete all necessary activities to document its requirements and potentially proceed with a public call for tenders, ensuring a smooth transition to the selected supplier.
