Description
Trade Agreement: NONE Tendering Procedures: All interested suppliers may submit a bid Competitive Procurement Strategy: Best Overall Proposal Comprehensive Land Claim Agreement: No Nature of Requirements: BACKGROUND As an interim measure, the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) Fleet Recapitalization Plan includes additional vessel life extension (VLE) investments to bridge the gap while awaiting the delivery of dedicated new vessels. In 2015-16 the CCG identified a requirement for interim icebreaking capabilities to fill gaps in capacity resulting from ships being temporarily withdrawn from service for VLEs, and, in the longer term, to mitigate risks of other ships being permanently withdrawn from service before replacements are delivered. Due to its economic importance, and the responsibility to work cooperatively with the United States Coast Guard in confined channels and rivers, the LIB is expected to be particularly active in the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence seaway, breaking ice in more shallow areas, servicing aids to navigation, and acting as a search and rescue (SAR) asset. The Work specified herein is to acquire an existing light icebreaker and all its supporting records and information to facilitate its conversion and transition into service within the CCG fleet. SUMMARY OF THE REQUIREMENT Contract A is for the Light Icebreaker Vessel which includes the services of a Project Team, Spares, Tools and Test Equipment, Vessel Familiarization and Vessel Custodian Training, Drawings and access to information systems, all as described in the Statement of Work Annex A. Contract B, is for the services of the Former Crew Support, all as described in the Statement of Work - Annex A. It is intended to result in the award of two contracts (Contract A - for the Light Icebreaker Vessel and Contract B - for the Former Crew Support) to the recommended Bidder. Contract A will commence immediately upon contract. Contract B is expected to be awarded between the award of Contract A and the acceptance of the Light Icebreaker Vessel at Canada’s discretion. Contract B will be for a period of 2 years commencing upon contract award, plus an irrevocable option, at Canada’s discretion, for an additional 1 year period.
