    Project title
    Quantum EncrYption and Science SATellite (QEYSSat)  Phase A
    
    Description
    Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) on behalf of Canadian Space Agency (CSA) located in St-Hubert, (Quebec), is planning to perform a feasibility assessment to provide a Quantum EncrYption and Science SATellite (QEYSSat).
    
    Up to two (2) contracts could be awarded. 
    
    This current Request for Proposal (RFP) is for Phase A only. If more than one bidder is compliant, up to two separate contracts will be awarded to two different contractors for the Phase A Work.  It is important to note that the result of this RFP will impact future phases as once the Phase A contracts are completed successfully and the two contractors deliver a valid solution for Phase A, a second RFP for Phases B/C and D will be released to the two Phase A contractors only. The two Phase A contractors will then compete for the Work of Phases B/C and D and only one contract will be issued for the subsequent phases. 
    
    For a generic description of the standard Work and major reviews to be performed under the Phases B/C and D, please refer to document CSA-SE-STD-001 rev A. 
    
    In the event that there is only one compliant bid received by Canada for Phase A or that only one contractor delivers a valid solution after Phase A contracts are completed, PSPC could post a second competitive RFP on Buy&Sell for Phases B/C and D. 
    
    Period of Contract
    The contract issued will be for a period of 6 months for Phase A.
