A non‑competitive procurement is required for the following suppliers: Toromont Power Systems, KSB Pumps Inc. (Canada), APGN Inc., John Brooks Company Limited, and Devine & Associates Limited. The equipment, parts, and related services provided by these suppliers are highly specialized and proprietary because each supplier is the sole manufacturer or authorized distributor.

These procurements will be proceeding under the exception related to Exclusive Rights, where the existence of exclusive rights such as patent, copyright, licence or warranty exists and the City has determined in good faith that both the proposed procurements and the selected suppliers, along with the terms and conditions of the contract, are beneficial to the City (Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 195, Procurement, Section 7.1.C). City Council approval is required in accordance with Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 195-Procurement, where the current request exceeds the Chief Procurement Officer's authority of the cumulative five-year commitment for each supplier under Article 7, Section 195-7.3 (D) of the Procurement By-Law or exceeds the threshold of $500,000 net of Harmonized Sales Tax allowed under staff authority as per Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 71, Financial Control, Section 71-11.A.
