1. Purpose of an Advance Contract Notice (ACAN) An Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) allows department and agencies to post a notice, for no less than fifteen (15) calendar days, indicating to the supplier community that it intends to award a goods, service or construction contract to a pre-identified supplier. If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a Statement of Capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, the contracting authority may then proceed with the award. However, should a Statement of Capabilities be found to meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, then the contracting officer will proceed to a full tendering process.

3. Justification for the Pre-Identified Supplier It is proposed to enter into a Contract with CUBIC Defense Application, Inc., San Diego, California as this is the only company who can supply the above requirement.
British Army Training Unit Suffield(BATUS) has in place an existing trunked radio network system comprised of three 100m communications towers and associated complex computer / telecommunications systems. BATUS's system is used to provide communications, command and control and Battle field recording of 2200 square KMs of live fire training area during exercises. BATUS has a contract with CUBIC Defense Application, Inc., to maintain and repair this system.
A few years ago CFB Suffield purchased approximately 300 handheld and fixed radios to provide Canadian control of the Range Training Area. CFB Suffield has been authorized by UK Ministry of Defense to utilize the existing towers and computer / telecommunications systems so that our radios will work on the range. Basically, our radios have been programmed to operate on their network.
As CUBIC Defense Application, Inc., by authority of their contract with UK MOD, has the sole control and access to the network equipment / communications system, CUBIC Field Services Canada Ltd is the only company that can program and maintain CFB Suffields radios to work on this system. CUBIC will not allow any other company administrative access to these computers, as doing so will compromise the BATUS network. If an outside company has administrative access to the computer system and causes any type of outage to BATUS Operational training, it may put CUBIC Defense Application, Inc., in a position that CUBIC Defense Application, Inc., may breach their contract in that they couldn't fulfill their primary obligation.
