Amendment No.002 provides the missing attachment (2 pages) in Amendment No.001.

Environment Canada (EC) is investigating the technologies available for the automatic preparation and release of balloons and meteorological radiosondes and their potential for use operationally in Canada.

The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to assist EC's Upper Air network to explore the potential of using automated balloon and radiosonde launching technology at some of its stations.

Given the advances made in the configuration and operation of automatic balloon launchers over the last 10-15 years, including improvements to capacity and reliability, EC is using this RFI to gather up to date information on the status and capabilities of the technologies of interest. The information gathered through this process will assist EC in refining the business case regarding the utilization of automatic balloon launching technologies for operational purposes in its network.

This is not a bid solicitation. This RFI will not result in the award of any contract. Therefore, potential suppliers of any goods or services described in this RFI should not reserve stock or facilities, nor allocate resources, as a result of any information contained in this RFI. Nor will this RFI result in the creation of any source list. Therefore, whether or not any potential supplier responds to this RFI will not preclude that supplier from participating in any future procurement. Also, the procurement of any of the goods or services described in this RFI will not necessarily follow this RFI. This RFI is simply intended to solicit feedback from industry with respect to its contents.

Nothing in this RFI shall be construed as a commitment from Canada to issue an RFP for this project. Canada may use any non-proprietary information obtained as part of this review or while preparing a future official RFP.

Canada shall not be bound by anything stated in this document. Canada reserves the right to change at any time any or all parts of the requirement, as it deems necessary. Canada also reserves the right to revise its procurement approach, as it considers appropriate, either based on information submitted in response to this RFI or for any other reason it deems appropriate. Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada. Delivery Date: Above-mentioned

The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any procurement.

Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
