The Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) has a requirement for the
replacement of the systems for automatic, remote, and local
control of the propulsion engines, gearboxes, controllable pitch
propellers, and transverse thruster in accordance with the Annex
"A" - Statement of Work (SOW) attached to the RPF, on the CCGS
Samuel Risley operating from Parry Sound, Ontario.  The Work is
to be performed in Parry Sound, Ontario.

The CCGS Samuel Risley is a four-engine twin-screw vessel with
two (2) Wartsila Vasa 12V22MD medium speed diesel engines
driving each of two (2) propulsion shafts via Valmet gearboxes.
Each shaft drives a shrouded LIPS controllable pitch propeller
and each gearbox is fitted with two (2) integral main input and
two (2) integral auxiliary power take off clutches.  

The power take off clutches drive a shaft generator and a fire
monitor water pump. The shaft generators are primarily used to
power the bow and stern thrusters.  The bow thruster is a water
jet type thruster.  The stern thruster is a tunnel-type CPP
stern thruster.  The twin rudders are each fitted with
independent electro-hydraulic steering gears. 

The Contractor will be required to remove the entire ASEA FAMP-S
control system and sub-systems; the ASEA Bow
Thruster/Omnithruster control system, the Rolls Royce/Ulstein
Stern Thruster control system and motor starter, and the SAB
NIFE Rectifiers and battery banks, and replace the equipment
with new equipment such that the automatic remote control and
manual remote control are available in the Wheelhouse (WH) and
Machinery Control Room (MCR) and manual local control is
available in the machinery spaces.  

The Contractor will be required to design, supply and install
the new systems and perform the detailed engineering design and
production work in accordance with the Statement of Work (SOW)
attached to this RFP.

The requirement is exempt from the provisions of the World Trade
Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP),
Annex 4 and the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA),
Chapter Ten Annex 1001.2b Paragraph 1(a). However, it is subject
to the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT).  The sourcing strategy
relating to this procurement will be limited to suppliers in 
Eastern Canada, in accordance with Shipbuilding, Refit, Repair
and Modernization Policy (1996-12-19).

The Work must be completed by the fall of 2015.
