  Defence Investment Plan 2018

  The Defence Capabilities Blueprint (DCB), accessible through a new online tool, is now available, and offers access to information related to defence investment opportunities. Like the previous Defence Acquisition Guide, the DCB provides industry access to planning information such as funding ranges and project timelines. Information on approximately 250 projects funded under Strong, Secure, Engaged (SSE) including infrastructure projects, as well as significant in-service support contracts is available for industry to plan for and compete in defence procurement opportunities. With this information, industry will be able to make informed research and development (R&D) and strategic partnering decisions based on projected needs of the Canadian Armed Forces. Within the DCB the following are found: Projects: Capital equipment or infrastructure projects with a value of over $5 million that are planned and funded under SSE Support Contracts: In-service support contracts and professional services contracts with an expected value of greater than $20 million that will be awarded in the coming years to support the capabilities being delivered under SSE SSE projects which are noted and identified The DCB includes a key word search function and segments investment opportunities into searchable components by: Defence Capability Areas (DCAs) Defence Capability Investment Areas (DCIAs) Project sponsors Key Industrial Capabilities (KICs) Defence Capability Areas (DCAs) are 13 broad component categories, such as Land, Sea, Air, Space and Cyber. These categories are further comprised of smaller constituent components of more than 150 Defence Capability Investment Areas (DCIAs). Examples of DCIAs are Commercial Pattern Vehicles, Ship Parts and Components, or Avionics. Projects may include more than one DCA and several DCIAs. Project Sponsors are the service command level or civilian equivalent organizations within Department of National Defence (DND). Projects and investment opportunities are also searchable under Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada's Key Industrial Capabilities (KICs). These capability areas inform industry about which key business activities are government priorities in defence procurement. Finally there is an Advanced Search capability that allows the user to filter their searches into specific parameters. http://dgpaapp.forces.gc.ca/en/defence-capabilities-blueprint/index.asp https://www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/corporate/reports-publications/defence-investment-plan-2018.html
