The Department of National Defence (DND) requires a Contractor to supply instruction, facilities, resources, and infrastructure needed to support the conduct of Canadian Forces Military Freefall Parachute (MFP), Military Square Parachute Jump Master (MSPJM), Military Square Parachute Instructor (MSPI) course and training of the Canadian Armed Forces Parachute Team (CAFPT) - The SkyHawks.
Canadian Army Advanced Warfare Centre (CAAWC), located at Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Trenton Ontario, is the primary training facility for military freefall parachuting and parent unit of the CAFPT. Due to inconsistent local weather that often impedes sustained and concentrated freefall and Canopy Relative Work (CRW) parachuting, CAAWC is seeking an alternative cost-effective training location with more conducive weather to conduct the jump phase of the MFP, MSPJM, MSPI courses and the training camps for the CAFPT.
The Period contract will be for 2 years from contract issuance with 2, 1-year option periods. The Contract start date is estimated to be August 1, 2017.
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT).
The Federal Contractors Program (FCP) for employment equity applies to this procurement; see Part 5 - Certifications and Additional Information, Part 7 - Resulting Contract Clauses and the annex titled Federal Contractors Program for Employment Equity - Certification.
