The decision to replace the contracts was made after PWGSC commissioned several studies which demonstrated that the AFD approach is cost-effective and that clients are satisfied with the service. The AFD approach offered several benefits, including more responsive services, private sector expertise and innovation, national service standards, higher performance benchmarks and an increased capacity for service delivery. As a result, this new procurement was launched to replace the initial AFD contracts that ended on March 31, 2005.
