Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the request for proposal is a way for the department to look for new and innovative ways to do a certain project, like a request for creative ideas on how to do a certain project. We have X number of dollars to get a project done. Perhaps, we have not done it before. Perhaps, we are doing it in a small community. Request for proposal is asking for ideas from different companies to come forward with how they propose to do a certain project. Price is not the only factor. There needs to be some flexibility. There might be an occasion where a request for proposal comes forward and there needs to be some adjustments to make it work. There are some minimum changes to it after it is awarded. I would like to ask the deputy minister to add to that. Thank you.
