During 2015 to 2020, Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) executed the All Domain Situational Awareness (ADSA) Program, which included a study of the feasibility of using sky-wave over-the-horizon radar technology in the polar cap region of the Canadian Arctic for detecting air targets. This study involved the installation of the first Canadian Polar Over-the-Horizon Radar (POTHR) system, at a location in Nunavut. 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 Polar Over the Horizon Radar (P-OTHR) Program. As part of this program a project exists to study the feasibility of using sky-wave over-the-horizon radar technology in the polar cap region of the Canadian Arctic for detecting air targets. This project is referred to as polar over-the-horizon radar. One-way and two-way sounding work is already in progress in the Canadian Arctic. This Statement of Work moves beyond sounding and involves putting together radar functional components at an Arctic Site. The services of a Contractor are required to design, build, install, and operate, a polar over-the-horizon radar site, incorporating a government-furnished power source and a government-furnished antenna array. The system will be used to determine the effect of the Aurora Borealis on target detection beyond line-of-sight. 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.
