Purpose and Nature of the Request for Information (RFI)
This RFI is neither a call for tender nor a Request for Proposal (RFP). No agreement or contract will be entered into based on this RFI. The issuance of this RFI is not to be considered in any way a commitment by the Government of Canada (Canada), nor as authority to potential respondents to undertake any work that could be charged to Canada. This RFI is not to be considered as a commitment to issue a subsequent solicitation or award contract(s) for the work described herein.
Although the information collected may be provided as commercial-in-confidence (and, if identified as such, will be treated accordingly by Canada), Canada may use the information to assist in drafting performance specifications (which are subject to change) and for budgetary purposes.
Respondents are encouraged to identify, in the information they share with Canada, any information that they feel is proprietary, third party or personal information. Please note that Canada may be obligated by law (e.g. in response to a request under the Access of Information and Privacy Act) to disclose proprietary or commercially-sensitive information concerning a respondent (for more information: http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/a-1/).
Respondents are asked to identify if their response, or any part of their response, is subject to the Controlled Goods Regulations.
Participation in this RFI is encouraged, but is not mandatory. There will be no short-listing of potential suppliers for the purposes of undertaking any future work as a result of this RFI. Similarly, participation in this RFI is not a condition or prerequisite for the participation in any potential subsequent solicitation.
Respondents will not be reimbursed for any cost incurred by participating in this RFI.
The RFI closing date published herein is not the deadline for comments or input. Comments and input will be accepted any time up to the time when/if a follow-on solicitation is published.
Objectives of the RFI
The GoC is seeking a solution for the DND/CAF Calibration Programme with an optimal division of responsibilities between Government and Industry. Canada wishes to optimize the sustainment solution by determining the appropriate balance of in-house versus commercial calibration services to respond to current and foreseen requirements of the Calibration Programme.
- The activities required to sustain Performance-Based Enterprise-wide Sustainment Solution and the optimal division of responsibilities between Government and Industry;
- Sustainment options, implementation/schedule and related costs;
- A performance management framework including a definition of outcomes and high-level metrics;
- Considerations associated with any potential tendering process, potential contractual terms and conditions, and their impact on contracted outcomes; and
- Approaches to meeting and leveraging the four principles of the GoC Sustainment Initiative: Performance, Value for Money, Flexibility and Economic Benefits.
