Transport Canada (TC) is in the process of modernizing and standardizing its incident management capability across the department. One of the ways it is doing this is by implementing a standardized methodology designed to enable effective, efficient, and interoperable response to any potential emergency events affecting Canada’s transportation system.
The Office of Incident Management (OIM) was given the mandate to lead this modernization through building strong partnerships, creating good situational awareness and using a systems approach to develop emergency management policies, processes and tools that align and support departmental and whole-of-community response activities. Additionally, the OIM (in collaboration with Transport Canada’s Multimodal Integrated Technical Training branch) is striving to ensure TC employees receive the Incident Management System (IMS) individual and collective training required for their incident response positions, and to be able to provide surge capacity staffing to our emergency management partners. Additionally, the effects of the current public health emergency may impact the in-person delivery of the exercises for an indefinite period of time.
TC requires the services of a Contractor to develop and deliver the IMS training, either in-person or virtually, with a minimum of 12 and a maximum of 24 discussion-based exercises for fiscal year 2021/2022 (April 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022) and a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 7 discussion-based exercises for fiscal year 2022/2023 (April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023). These exercises will be conducted with TC employees within the initial period of the contract, which will begin on the date of contract award and will end on March 31, 2023.
TC reserves the right to exercise up to two (2) additional one year option periods from April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024 and from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025. During each of these option periods, a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 7 discussion-based exercises are anticipated.
