Standing Offers. Standing Offers are used to meet recurring needs when departments or agencies repeatedly order the same goods or services. A request for standing offer(RFSO) is used to solicit standing offers. Suppliers who meet the evaluation criteria stated in the RFSO become pre-qualified suppliers and holders of standing offers. A standing offer is an offer from a potential supplier to provide goods and/or services at pre-arranged prices, under set terms and conditions, when and if required. It is not a contract until the government issues a "call-up" against the standing offer. The government is under no actual obligation to purchase until that time.  2, record 2, English, - request%20for%20standing%20offer

Offres à commandes. Les offres à commandes sont utilisées pour répondre à des besoins répétitifs dans les cas où les ministères et organismes commandent fréquemment les mêmes biens ou services. Une demande d'offre à commandes (DOC) est utilisée pour solliciter des offres à commandes. Les entreprises qui répondent aux critères d'évaluation énoncés dans la DOC sont les fournisseurs préqualifiés et ils sont détenteurs d'offres à commandes. Une offre à commandes est une offre déposée par un fournisseur éventuel qui propose de fournir, au besoin, des biens ou des services à des prix préétablis, selon des clauses et des conditions définies. Il n'y a pas de marché tant que le gouvernement ne passe pas une commande subséquente à l'offre à commandes.

Equity arbitration relies on both equitable ideals and universal common law principles that have developed through the years. For example, a valid contract requires that one party made an offer, the other accepted it, and something of value was exchanged. If the parties never reached an agreement, there is no contract... In equitable arbitration, the arbitrator doesn’t have to follow legal technicalities or enforce parts of a contract that don’t make sense. The arbitrator can ignore certain terms that would make the outcome unfair if they were strictly enforced.  3, record 11, English, - equitable%20arbitration

It is sometimes difficult to determine whether a statement is a representation inducing the other party to contract, or a term or stipulation of the contract. It is the terms which give content to the parties’ agreement, and questions of whether a contract has been performed or breached commonly depend on ascertainment and interpretation of the terms agreed. Terms may be express, stated in the contract, or imported by reference to some other document where they are set out in full, or implied into the contract, by common law, by custom and usage, by statute, and in some other ways.(Walker, p. 1211)  2, record 42, English, - term
