Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), Office of Small and Medium Enterprises (OSME) has a requirement to procure:
a) Research and Development innovative goods and/or services, hereinafter referred to as "innovations", that are in late stage development; and
b) Support services such as installation, training and testing support services for the pre-commercialized innovations procured for the federal government.
The innovations proposed may include solution exploration; design and prototyping up to the original development of a limited volume of goods and/or services in the form of a test series. Original development of an innovation may include limited production or supply in order to incorporate the results of field testing and to demonstrate that the Innovation is suitable for production or supply in quantity to acceptable quality standards.
Technology Readiness Levels
The stages of development are termed Technology Readiness Levels (TRL). For the purposes of this procurement they are defined and can be viewed on the Buy and Sell website, https://buyandsell.gc.ca/initiatives-and-programs/canadian-innova tion-commercialization-program-cicp-0. TRLs are a measure to evaluate the maturity of an evolving innovation. This scale, developed to assist in evaluating the maturity of goods and/or services for the CICP, evaluates all goods and/or services broadly while recognizing that not all development cycles are the same. This is not a linear process and many goods and/or services may skip or quickly address certain stages of readiness.
These innovations must be at a TRL 7 (prototype demonstration in an appropriate operational environment) through TRL 9 (actual technology proven through successful deployment in an operational setting).
Priority Areas and Definitions
The four (4) Priority Areas for CICP are listed below. Refer to the Buy and Sell website, https://buyandsell.gc.ca/initiatives-and-programs/canadian-innova tion-commercialization-program-cicp/find-out-if-cicp-is-right-for -you/priority-areas for definitions and examples of the types of technologies categorized under each Priority Area:
Environment, Safety and Security, Health; and Enabling Technologies.
