SOLICITATION OF OFFERS EN578-25ISC2 TS12

REQUIREMENT:

Innovative Solutions Canada Program - Testing Stream (ISC TS) is a R&D program aimed at procuring, testing and evaluating R&D, pre-commercialized goods and services in the late stage development (Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 7 to 9).

Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) is issuing a Solicitation of Offers (SoO) on behalf of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) and participating departments, seeking Innovations to address a variety of Problem Statements which reflect the departmental requirements of participating federal departments and agencies.

More specifically ISED is seeking solutions to the Testing Stream Problem Statements and Topics outlined at Section 20, of the SoO.

The purpose of this SoO is to create a pool of conditionally qualified suppliers that Canada may select from to address Government of Canada organizations’ requirements. Qualifying into a pool does not guarantee that a contract will be awarded.

SOLICITATION PERIOD: From 2025-06-26 to 2025-07-22

Please refer to the solicitation documents for information related to offer preparation and submission instructions, evaluation procedures, basis of selection and other pertinent information.

TESTING DEPARTMENT: Federal Government Organizations

FUNDING MECHANISM: Contract

ESTIMATED MAXIMUM FUNDING: The estimated maximum funding available for all Contracts resulting from this Call for Proposals is: $20M

Military Problem Statements: $2,300,000.00 CAD (Applicable Taxes, shipping and Travel and Living expenses are extra, as applicable).
