REQUIREMENT
The Department of National Defence (DND), Canadian Forces Base
Borden, has a requirement to procure a variety of musical
instruments, accessories and supplies for the Canadian Forces
Logistics Training Centre (CFLTC).
Background
CFLTC - Music Division conducts various Reg Force and P Res
music courses throughout the year. DND CFLTC teach all the
Qualification Levels from QL 3 to QL7 as well as conducting
courses for officers. Our aim is teach new skills and hone the
existing skills of our candidates and give them tools to be
better military musicians.
DND CFLTC provide their students with professional musical
instruments for the duration of their stay at
CFLTC - Music Div. These instruments are used for individual
training, musical ensembles (concert
band, stage band, etc.) and parade training. DND CFLTC have on
average close to 150 students per year with access to the
instruments they loan.
Objective
As part of the ongoing life cycle management of current holdings
and to satisfy increasing / new demands, there exists a need to
procure the items listed at Annex B.
Scope of Work
Because of our schedule during training, our students use these
instruments for about 6 hours a day, in all kinds of weather and
conditions. Even if they take good care of their instruments,
after being used for 10 to 15 years, they need to be replaced.
In addition to the above considerations, in order for these
newly procured instruments to visually and audibly match current
holdings, the exact make / model, where specified is required
and substitutions will not be accepted.
Accordingly, the make / model, where specified, of the
instruments listed at Annex B, must be such that they are
extremely durable and relatively low-maintenance but at the same
of appropriate quality to provide meaningful music skill
development.
All work is to be completed as soon as possible, but no later
than 31 January 2016.
Please refer to the Request for Proposal document for the
complete details regarding this requirement including the
mandatory criteria, evaluation criteria and basis of selection.
