As indicated in the Request for Information (F7013-180014-B) posted in August 2019 Canada is proceeding with the next phase of the procurement strategy. The Design contract was awarded and we are now in the process of selecting a Single System Integrator (SSI) for the deck equipment on the NSFRV. This process is now called the Request for Identification (RFID) (previously named: Invitation to Qualify ITQ) of Potential Suppliers. After the closing date we will evaluate potential suppliers and establishing a ranked list to be used to recommend the SSI to work with the lead designer on the design of the deck equipment systems.
Nature of Requirements
CCG’s Fleet of Near-Shore Fishery Research Vessels (NSFRVs) play a key role in the delivery of fishery research in Canada’s waterways. Currently, there are four NSFRVs in service. Three were replaced under Economic Action Plan (EAP 2009) and entered into service in 2012. The fourth NSFRV is now in need of replacement.
An updated set of requirements has been developed for the vessel based on user input from those working on the EAP 2009 NSFRVs and updated regulatory requirements. Additionally, the government wide innovation mandate, as well as the NSFRV project’s own specific innovation mandate to explore solutions related to ?green? technologies, diversity, human factors, as well as the anticipated 20 year lifecycle from entry into service, have driven the revised set of requirements.
Response Deadline Date: February 5, 2021 at 14:00 EST.
Responses to the RFID-Deck Equipment must be sent in accordance with section 2.2. Hard copies or email responses sent to the PSPC Authority will not be accepted.
Delivery Date: Above-mentioned
