A core element of the new Canadian government approach to major procurements is the Value Proposition (VP) obligation. The VP, a fundamental pillar of the Industrial and Technological Benefits (ITB) policy, requires bidders, on major defence procurement programs, to compete not only on price and technical merit but also on the bidder’s commitment to undertake work in Canada. In fact, the VP evaluation accounts for a minimum of 10 percent of the overall proposal evaluation score.¹

 Â¹ The Defence Procurement Strategy released in February 2015 changed Canada’s Industrial and Regional Benefits (IRB) policy into the Industrial and Technological Benefits (ITB) policy. Like the IRB policy, the ITB policy requires that bidders invest in Canada equivalent to 100 percent of contract value. Under the ITB policy, bidders must submit value propositions that will be a weighted and rated element during bid evaluation.
