Purpose

Public Works Government Services Canada’s (PWGSC) intent for this RFI is to engage Industry in a consultative process by seeking industry feedback on the Department of National Defense’s (DND) requirement to procure Naval Offboard anti-Missile Active Decoy (NOMAD) systems that are designed to function in a marine environment with an existing Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV).

The information provided by industry may be used to support Canada’s decision-making process such as finalizing requirements and determining the procurement strategy.

As the project progresses towards a formal Request for Proposal (RFP), this RFI will provide a continuous single point of official communication with industry. The project will use this RFI process for multiple purposes such as:

-Collaborating with industry on the Statement of Work, Technical Statement of Requirement, the procurement strategy and the bid evaluation;
-Presenting questions to industry and soliciting comments and feedback;
-Ensure all interested participants receive the same information;

This initial RFI release is to:

a) Gauge level of competition for this type of capability;
b) Create a dialogue between Canada and Industry with the view of determining Industry’s capability to provide Naval Offboard anti-Missile Active Decoy (NOMAD) systems;
c) Request industry feedback on the Draft Statement of Work and the Draft Technical Statement of Requirement;
d) Understanding capability and availability of potential existing commercial solutions and their general price point based on the requirements listed below;
e) Request Industry to provide a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost for their proposed system. ROM estimates must include all system acquisition, training and travel costs;
f) Request Industry to provide separate timelines for system design, system demonstration, and full system delivery;
g) Invite industry to submit questions, comments, concerns with the requirement and insight into any related alternatives.
