Canada is in the planning process to prepare a competitive
Request for Standing Offer (RFSO) for the Department of National
Defence (DND), DND requires the following Non Human Model
Training courses and course topics on an "if and when requested"
basis: Train the Trainer Course, Operator Course, Instructor
Non Human Model Table Top, Instructor Non Human Model Scenarios,
Non Human Model Table Top Training, Non Human Model Scenario
Based Training, Mass Casualty Discussions, Ballistic Session.
The purpose of the Request for Information (RFI) is to provide
industry with an early opportunity to assess and comment on
requirements, procurement strategy, evaluation criteria, pricing
schedule, and basis of payment in order to maximize best value
to Canada, while reducing potential problems when the RFSO is
posted.
This feedback will assist Canada in finalizing the requirements
of the RFSO. The RFI information herein will also provide
potential Service Providers an update on the procurement in
preparation for the eventual RFSO.
The information provided by Canada in this RFI is preliminary
and may change. The final procurement approach may differ
depending on responses to the RFI and other factors as the
procurement process develops. This RFI is not a bid
solicitation nor will it be used to pre-qualify or otherwise
restrict participation in any future RFSO. A standing offer
(SO) will not result from this RFI. Responses will not be
formally evaluated.
Potential offerors may use this RFI to make known their comments
on the draft Statement of Work, proposed procurement approach
and methodology, potential evaluation and selection criteria or
any other aspect of the requirement.
Suppliers are to send their written comments in response to this
RFI by e-mail to the SO Authority named herein no later than
4:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) on May 15, 2013.
