Cyber Defence - Decision Analysis and Response (CD-DAR) - Draft Invitation to Qualify
This notice provides the opportunity for interested suppliers to submit their written feedback on the draft Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) for the CD-DAR procurement before Canada releases the final ITQ.
This opportunity for written feedback to Canada is neither a call for tender nor a Request for Proposal (RFP) and is not to be considered in any way a commitment by Canada, nor as authority to potential respondents to undertake any work that could be charged to Canada. Participation in this opportunity for written feedback is not a condition or prerequisite for responding to any subsequent ITQ.
Project Overview:
Through the CD-DAR Project the Department of National Defence (DND) / Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) will acquire defensive cyber solutions (translated into capabilities) to improve overall decision support and security of the DND/CAF cyberspace, including the ability to detect, analyze and respond to threats. The integrated CD-DAR capability must provide reliable contextual analysis to support DND/CAF decisions and actions within designated Command Network (Comd-Net) Extensions and Interfaces, and deployable Defence Wide Area Network (DWAN) systems. Ultimately, the CD-DAR capability will enable the CAF Cyber Force to defend the CAF’s freedom of action and interests in cyberspace in support of CAF missions and operations. Notwithstanding, CD-DAR must be designed to enable scalability to additional networking environments as and when appropriate.
