EREP: High Capacity Skimmers - Request for Information (RFI)
Purpose:
The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to request that interested companies provide feedback and recommendations regarding the requirement as well as to answer the related questions posed herein.
The questions posed are regarding the Canadian Coast Guard’s (CCG) potential requirement(s) for the provision of commercially available high capacity skimmers of two different capacities (100 m3/hour and a 250 m3/hour) that will be used in response to oil spills of various sizes and viscosity in ice and clear conditions in both sheltered and unsheltered waters. The skimmers, along with all their components and accessories, may be stored on and deployed from some of the larger CCG vessels, including icebreakers.
Background Information:
The Environmental Response Equipment Modernization (ERE) Project for the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) forms part of the Oceans Protection Plan announced in November 2016. Under the ERE, CCG is renewing its suite of environmental response (ER) equipment, ensuring a robust and strategic national response capability. The ERE is modernizing ER equipment with new technology for strategic ER locations across Canada. Approximately 50-100 unique procurements for different types of equipment, including Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) documentation, may be required. Several of these procurements have been completed or are in progress.
