INDUSTRY ENGAGEMENT PROCESS
In order to ensure a successful transition from the current process that the Government of Canada has in place for military pilot training following the expiration of the NATO Flying Training In Canada (NFTC) and Contracted Flying Training and Support (CFTS) contracts, Industry shall be consulted in an engagement process as one of the first steps in determining how the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) will deliver this training in the future.
The engagement process will include the Future Pilot Training (FPT) "Industry Day Engagement Session" followed by "One-on-one Industry meetings" and "Working Group Sessions" at a later time.
The FPT Industry Day Engagement Session is scheduled for 4 February 2014 from 0900 hrs to 1200 hrs at the RCAF Officers' Mess, Control Tower and Annex rooms, 158 Gloucester Street, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Those companies requesting one-on-one meetings must advise their interest via email to: FPT.Project@forces.gc.ca by 1400 hrs Eastern Standard Time 8 January 2014. On 9 January 2014 a meeting schedule will be set up via a random draw of names from those submitted and participants will be advised of the timing for their one-on-one meeting.
One-on-one meetings will be scheduled for the afternoon of 4 February 2014 at the same location and 5 - 6 February 2014 (if required) at 1 Nicholas Street, 4th Floor Boardroom, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Working Group Sessions are anticipated to be scheduled from March until May 2014 if required.
Industry is requested to provide comments and recommendations to the Public Works Government Services Canada (PWGSC) Representative on the draft Industry Engagement Process Rules of Engagement which includes a Dispute Resolution Process (file available below under Solicitation Documents) by 28 January 2014. The draft Industry Engagement Process Rules of Engagement will be discussed and finalized at the Engagement Session.
To participate in Industry Day Engagement Session, Working Group Sessions, one-on-one meetings, and review of the final draft Request for Proposal (RFP), Industry must sign and agree to the Industry Engagement Process Rules of Engagement.
Also, in order to facilitate the one-on-one meetings, Industry is encouraged to provide written comments and recommendations on the proposed topics for discussion as well as any additional topics Industry may wish to discuss.
All Industry consultation will be documented and this information is subject to the Access to Information Act. Canada shall not reveal any designated proprietary information to third parties.
Industry Day Engagement Session: The purpose of the Industry Day Engagement Session is to provide Industry and other interested parties ("Participants") with general information on the FTP project, the engagement process, finalize the draft Industry Engagement Process Rules of Engagement and obtain Industry comments on the engagement process timeline.
One-on-one Industry Meetings: Following sign-off by Industry of the Rules of Engagement, Canada will meet with Industry Participants individually to listen to their concerns, recommendations and solutions. Canada will analyze and summarize Industry input, identify topics that need to be discussed at Working Group Sessions and revise solicitation document(s), if applicable.
Working Group Sessions: The objective of the Working Group Sessions is to resolve Industry issues and secure an open competitive process to replace the current pilot training system. Industry will be invited to Working Group Sessions comprised of representatives from Industry, DND, Industry Canada (IC) and PWGSC to discuss specific issues, potential solutions and revised solicitation document(s), if applicable. Canada will finalize the solicitation document(s) following these meetings.
Following the Working Group Sessions, Canada will document all Industry issues, positions and action. A draft RFP will only be made available to all participants who have signed and complied with the Rules of Engagement for a final review before the official RFP is published on Government Electronic Tendering Service (GETS).
Third Party Consultation: Third parties such as Industry Associations will be consulted on an as and when required basis to discuss Industry issues and recommendations on Industry standard practices.
