Line 1, Cadet International Expedition Chile

REQUIREMENT: The Royal Canadian Army Cadet Programme (RCACP) conducts expeditions to develop leadership skills, while enhancing self-concepts, such as self-confidence, self-reliance, self-esteem and self-discipline. An expedition is any activity that consists of dynamic travel of no less than one day in duration with an outdoor overnight component, where there is a clear goal associated with the activity.

The development and execution of the 2020 International Expedition has been tasked to RCSU (P). The expedition will occur in phases - pre-expedition training, the expedition, and cultural visits.

The 2020 International Expedition - Chile is forecasted to have three (3) adult staff army Cadet Instructor Cadre (CIC) officers, and eighteen (18) youth aged 16-18 as participants. All will have a high level of physical fitness and no medical restrictions that would preclude them from participating in the entirety of activities to be conducted. At least one (1) of the CIC officers will be functionally bilingual (French-English) to account for the possibility of a unilingual participant. This requirement is for the supply of out-trip meals and the instruction and supervision of eighteen (18) Army Cadets and three (3) CIC officers.

PERIOD OF CONTRACT: The period of the Contract is from date of award to February 20, 2019 inclusive.  The dates for the expedition are February 7-19, 2020.

CANADIAN CONTENT: The requirement is subject to a preference for Canadian services. The evaluation team will determine first if there are two or more bids with a valid Canadian Content certification. In that event, the evaluation process will be limited to the bids with the certification; otherwise, all bids will be evaluated.


There is no security requirement associated with this requirement.
