Group Municipality Declaration of Participation in a Buying Group

Tender details

As a compliancy requirement, our members need to publicly state their intent to participate with a buying group. This is not a competition or opportunity to sell.The Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA) requires the following from a procurement entity related to its participation with a buying group:"A procurement entity shall publish a notice of its participation with the buying group at least annually on one of the tendering websites or systems designated by its Party. That notice shall direct potential suppliers to the buying group tender notices website if it is different from its Party’s tendering websites or systems."SUMA on behalf of its member municipalities is writing to inform of the intent of its members to participate in one or more procurement opportunities offered through Kinetic GPO and the CentralSource buying group purchasing program between January 1, 2026 and December 31, 2026.Any questions may be directed to Carl Macdonald, VP of Contracting and Compliance with Kinetic GPO (306)525-4395
