Canadian Army Advanced Warfare Centre (CAAWC), located at Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Trenton Ontario, is the primary training facilityfor military freefall parachuting and parent unit of the CAFPT. Due to inconsistent local weather that often impedes sustained and concentrated freefall and Canopy Relative Work (CRW) parachuting, CAAWC is seeking an alternative cost-effective training location with more conducive weather to conduct the jump phase of the MFP, MSPJM, MSPI courses and the training camps for the CAFPT.
The objective of the Statement of Work is to obtain instruction, facilities, resources, and infrastructure to conduct the jump phase of the MFP, MSPJM, MSPI courses and CAFPT CRW training camps. Training will incorporate both jumping and non-jumping days, and Vertical Wind Tunnel (VWT) exercises.
