    Description

    The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has long used various border management technologies to support and facilitate its operation. Wireless handheld devices have been deployed to support traveler and conveyance processing at multiple points of entry. These devices are expected to be end of life in 2020 and will need to be replaced. As a result the CBSA is undertaking this RFI to:

    1. Collect information on market readiness and industry capabilities specific to wireless handheld technology that can support border processing;

    2. Receive responses from the industry about their product(s); and

    3. Solicit the industry to provide an interactive demonstration of how their product(s) address the listed questions, and to discuss their product(s) in detail.

    The CBSA intends to use input to help determine the "way forward" as to whether and how this service should be acquired, delivered, and managed and if so, to solidify its procurement approach.

    The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to develop a better understanding of the capabilities and maturity of industry with respect to the ability of the private sector to provide goods and/or services to the CBSA.

    Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
