    1.1.1 Background
    
    Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) is launching this Request for Information (RFI) to engage industry, through consultation, on its interest, capacity and ability to supply and deliver the requirements of the Department of National Defence’s Tactical Power System (TPS) project. The Tactical Power System (TPS) will provide the Land Forces with operationally reliable and safe electric power systems, while minimizing logistical demands and environmental impacts, to be used for Headquarters, Communications, Logistics and other tactical troop concentrations during national emergencies, training and operations overseas.
    1.1.2  The purpose of this initial RFI is to achieve the following:
    a) Provide industry with initial information on the preliminary requirements of the TPS project;
    b) Request detailed information and feedback from industry, including preliminary cost estimates;
    c) Determine the capability of industry to satisfy the requirements; 
    d) Request preliminary interest, input and questions for a possible Industry Day;
    e) Determine any limitations and restrictions to industry capabilities, such as, but not limited to, Intellectual Property Rights and other factors that would impact their ability to bid on any resulting solicitation and/or to deliver the requirements.
    Respondents are requested to provide answers and feedback related to the attached drafts documents with priority given to estimated cost estimates at Attachment One and Two. The estimated costing is required in order for Canada to prepare its final Project Approval documents.
    Further amendments to this RFI may be conducted with, but not limited to, the following objectives:
    a) Provide industry with updated Statement of Requirements and sustainment requirements;
    b) Refine the requirements and further develop the procurement and sustainment strategies;
    c) Gather industry knowledge, expertise and recommendations with regard to best practices that would increase the success of a solicitation and/or identify any risks that would impact a solicitation;
    d) Obtain industry feedback on any issues that would impact their ability to bid on any resulting solicitation and/or to deliver the requirements; and
    e) Enhance competition, access and fairness to the resulting solicitation(s).
