The bid closing date is being amended to May 15, 2015.
Environment Canada (EC) requires unheated Relative Humidity (RH)
sensors for use in their Reference Climate Stations (RCS),
Surface Weather (SWX), and partner networks. To ensure
instrument continuity and data homogeneity, EC intends to use
the same model over the course of the contract.
The sensors are used to support EC's mandate to forecast daily
weather conditions and warndings, and to provide detailed
meteorological information to all of Canada. These sensors will
augment on-going improvements and expansions being made to the
radar, surface, marine and lightning detection networks.
The contract period will be for a period of ten (10) years from
the date of contract award to March 31, 2025.
It is intended to issue one contract as a result of this
solicitation.
The proposed unheated RH sensor(s) must be new (not refurbished
or prototype item), commercially-off-the-shelf (COTS) model(s).
There is a firm requirement of 210 Unheated RH Sensors. Optional
quantities of up to 910 Unheated RH Sensors may be required over
the period of the contract. There is a maximum quantity
specified per contract year as outlined in Table A below.
