This event has now ended.
Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC), with the support of the Department of National Defence (DND), the Department of Fisheries and Ocean (DFO) and Canadian Coast Guard (CCG), Transport Canada (TC), Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), as well as Innovation Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) will be presenting a content update to the federal marine procurement outlook session presented last April during Mari-Tech 2018 in Victoria. Building upon the information presented, the WebEx will provide the very latest update on upcoming procurements in areas such as small vessel construction, vessel repair, refit and life extension, in-service support, sustainment, vessel chartering, disposal and other special projects in the realm of marine equipment. It will also provide an update on proposed and ongoing actions resulting from the four regional industry engagements sessions. This WebEx will be carried out on Tuesday, November 20th, 2018 between 13:15-14:45 EST.
It is PSPC's intent to capitalize on this opportunity to engage industry in a manner consistent with the principles of smart procurement (early engagement, effective governance, independent advice, and benefits for Canadians) and to offer an opportunity for one-on-one engagement discussions between Government and interested industry parties (G2B). These sessions will be carried out, over the phone, on Wednesday, November 21st and Thursday, November 22nd, 2018. This opportunity should be of particular interest to small and medium marine-focused enterprises wishing to refine their understanding of specific requirements (day 1) or to showcase new production capabilities/capacities or innovative project management practices (day 2).
