Nature of Requirements:

This is not a bid solicitation. Canada is seeking feedback from
industry with respect to Bid Evaluation Support.

The purpose of the Request for Information (RFI) is to help
Canada determine Industry's capability to supply the services
and software necessary to facilitate the Canadian Surface
Combatant (CSC) procurement.

The objectives of the RFI are to:

a. provide an opportunity for those interested to make
available information they feel Canada should be aware of when
planning for the acquisition of proven expertise and
professional advice in supporting complex, high-value defence
procurements enabled by commercial software for structuring,
managing and executing bid evaluations ; and

b. enable Canada to develop bid solicitation documents for this
work.

The CSC project will recapitalize the Royal Canadian Navy's
(RCN) surface combatant fleet by replacing and updating the
capabilities found in both the Iroquois-class destroyers and the
Halifax-class frigates. This project will deliver ships capable
of meeting multiple threats in both the open ocean and the
highly complex coastal environment. These ships will optimize
commonality of systems and design and will ensure that Canada
can continue to monitor and defend its waters and make
significant contributions to international naval operations.

In this RFI related to Bid Evaluation Support for the CSC
Project, Canada is seeking Industry input on the services and
software products which are available to support the
development of evaluation criteria and the execution of an
evaluation process, based on a proven methodology and supported
by software.

All requested information is to be provided to the Contracting
Authority, preferably on or before the closing date of the RFI.
