The National Research Council Centre for Surface Transportation
(NRC-CST) has a requirement to conduct real-time simulations of
tracked and wheeled vehicles operating in on-road and off-road
environments. A software development toolkit (SDK) is required
to allow engineers to rapidly and effectively create computer
simulation models that can be used as the core of a real-time
vehicle simulator. The vehicle simulators will be used for
vehicle performance evaluation, design optimization and driver
training. The SDK must allow developers to quickly and easily
build models that simulate the physical behaviour of tracked and
wheeled vehicles and various types of heavy equipment in real
time.
Canada has an initial requirement for a commercially available
Real-Time simulation software development toolkit (SDK) for one
Client User. The required SDK must include the Licensed Software
with 5 run-time licenses, a twelve-month warranty, software
maintenance and support, documentation. Training must also be
provided. The bid solicitation is intended to result in the
award of a contract for one year, plus five one-year irrevocable
option(s) allowing Canada to extend the term of the contract.
Technical Environment
The SDK must operate on a personal computer (PC) with an Intel
Core i7 920 or its equivalent and Microsoft Windows XP
Professional, Version 2002, Service Pack 2. The SDK will be
installed on multiple computers and the Contractor will provide
a hardware key (dongle) to ensure that more than one user never
uses it at a time. The controlling access will be done with a
hardware key that can be passed to the person that needs to use
the SDK.
The Licensed Software SDK must be a development license which
enables at a minimum the Client to write, test, debug and modify
the application which the Client creates using the SDK. The
runtime license must include all necessary intellectual property
rights to enable the end user to run the Client's application
with the required components of the SDK.
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the World Trade
Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP), the
North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Canada-Chile
Free Trade Agreement (CCFTA), Canada-Peru Free Trade Agreement
(CPFTA), the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT) and the
Canada-Colombia Free Trade Agreement.
