Description
Trade Agreement: Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT) Tendering Procedures: All interested suppliers may submit a bid Competitive Procurement Strategy: Best Overall Proposal Comprehensive Land Claim Agreement: No Nature of Requirements: Requirement To provide and deliver a cooled high-pixel density 2-Color MWIR imager and accessories to Defence Research and Development Canada - Valcartier Research Centre. Background DRDC is pursuing imaging technologies studies in the mid-wave infrared (MWIR) region of the electromagnetic spectrum. To fulfil the studies, DRDC is looking to acquire one (1) cooled high-pixel density 2-Color MWIR imager (2C-IR imager) and two (2) MWIR objectives. This requirement consists of the design and fabrication of a 2C-IR imager that delivers synchronized imagery of two distinct bands (B1 and B2) in the MWIR region sensed using a single optical aperture. The detector must be cooled via a Stirling and made of Indium Antimonide (InSb). Both bands must be imaged on a unique detector, each using half (50%) of the detector pixels, an example is shown in Figure 1. Each band must have, as a minimum, 1.4M pixels to provide sufficient resolution for wide Field-of-View (FOV) applications. The images created on the detector must be identical if B1 and B2 characteristics are matched. Thus, performing band subtraction via image processing would produce a black or null image. The Contractor must design and develop a 2C-IR imager and its MWIR objectives in accordance with the SOR. Acceptance tests will be performed by the Contractor and DRDC. For the tests performed by the contractor, a Technical Authority (TA) from DRDC must witness and sign-off (upon qualification) the contractor acceptance document (Section 9). For the acceptance tests performed by DRDC, the contractor will obtain the test results within 60 days after the delivery of the 2C-IR imager. Delivery Date All the deliverables must be received on or before March 28, 2016. Maximum Funding The maximum funding available for the contract resulting from the bid solicitation is $800,000.00 CAD (Applicable Taxes extra, as appropriate). Bids valued in excess of this amount will be considered non-responsive. This disclosure does not commit Canada to pay the maximum funding available. The requirement is subject to the provisions of the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT). Delivery Date: Above-mentioned The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any procurement. Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
