Importance of Past Tender Information

One of the benefits of using the Merx platform is that, along with open solicitations, you can also search for closed and awarded solicitations.

Knowing that annual contracts drop around the same time each year helps you to work proactively to win future opportunities. Here are some recently closed healthcare-related tenders to give you a glimpse of what you can find with Merx:

Health Canada and Green Procurement

Health Canada’s main objective is to provide national leadership in fostering sustainable health care systems. To meet the requirements of a contract, a business must adopt and integrate ESG principles into their business model. Green Procurement aims to reduce Canada’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and transition to net-zero carbon and climate-resilient operations by 2050.

It is important for procurement personnel to incorporate a life-cycle approach to materials management. This may include:

  • Evergreening lab and IT equipment based on condition and expected life of the assets.
  • Renewal of expiring contracts to support asset holdings and major projects.
  • Maintenance and renewal of IT infrastructure to ensure reliable access and transactions.

Health Canada supports Green Procurement and incorporating environmental performance considerations such as the value for money put into the procurement decision-making process. The procurement staff also takes into consideration cost savings, synergies, and “greening” of products and services.
