Requirement Analysis, Option Analysis and Development of an Operational Model for a Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) Security Credential Management Security Credential Management System (SCMS) Platform for Canada
Transport Canada is seeking consulting services with expertise in Public Key Infrastructure, personal information privacy legislation, wireless communication technology, and business management to:
Define requirements and analyze options for the development of a Canadian V2X SCMS platform.
Develop recommended operational models for a prototype and large scale Canadian SCMS platform and concept of operations that can be implemented to issue interoperable credentials and enable credential revocation, when appropriate, for multiple V2X pilot projects across Canada. The operational model must ensure sufficient levels of privacy and security as defined through stakeholder consultation. The operational model must also support interoperability in North America and scale-up to a national deployment.
Develop detailed specifications and costing for prototype of centrally operated components (e.g. root Certificate Authority, Misbehavior Authority, Policy Generator, Linkage Authority etc.) to deploy prototype operational model for Canadian connected vehicle pilot sites. Specify extensions and additions needed for scale-up of central components to support national deployment of connected vehicles in Canada (Phase 2A - Contact Option 1).
Develop a recommended Certificate Policy for a Canadian SCMS that can be used to establish minimum requirements for SCMS owner/operators in Canada and support future deployments (Phase 2B - Contract Option 2).
Conduct additional analysis, reporting and presentations relating to the development of a Canadian V2X SCMS platform on an “as needed” basis (Phase 2C - Contract Option 3).
