Aerospace, Defence and Security Expo (ADSE) marks next phase of Vision 2025

The Aerospace, Defence and Security Expo (ADSE) has wrapped its ninth annual successful conference and trade show, marking the first major gathering of Canada's aerospace sector since the release of the Aerospace Industries Association of Canada's (AIAC) industry-led Vision 2025 report.

“ADSE 2019 once again attracted a broad cross-section of aerospace, defence and security industry representatives, from across Canada and around the world, with interests in ensuring Canada remains a leader in an increasingly fierce competitive global economy,” said Jim Quick, president and CEO of AIAC. “Their continued collaboration and input are vital as we move ahead with the six key priorities identified during the months of cross-country consultations that informed our report, Charting a New Course.”

The six priorities are:

  • Building the most skilled and talented workforce in the world;
  • Ensuring small and medium-sized aerospace businesses thrive and grow;
  • Using innovation to capture new opportunities, including carbon-neutral flight and unmanned vehicles;
  • Investing to maintain Canada's status as a world-class regulator;
  • Leveraging Canada's role at the forefront of space;
  • Maximizing defence procurement and government partnerships to drive new industrial growth.

ADSE 2019 featured an impressive line-up of speakers as well as industry exhibits, keynote speeches, panels and workshops, together with numerous B2B and networking opportunities.

High-profile presenters included:

  • Carla Qualtrough, Canadian minister of Public Services and Procurement and Accessibility
  • Harjit Sajjan, minister of National Defence
  • Bruce Ralston, B.C. minister of Jobs, Trade and Technology
  • Dave Curtis, executive chair, Longview Aviation Capital
  • Lorraine Ben, chief executive, Lockheed Martin Canada
  • Bob Cantwell, managing director, Boeing Canada and Boeing Vancouver
  • Florian Sodtke, Heat of Combat Air Systems Marketing, Airbus Defence and Space

ADSE is a world-class aerospace exhibition. It is Western Canada's largest aerospace event and the only Canadian expo linked to a major international airshow. Hosted by AIAC (Pacific division) it occurs each August in Abbotsford, B.C., in conjunction with the Abbotsford International Airshow.

AIAC and AIAC Pacific wish to extend special thanks to ADSE's nearly 30 sponsors in 2019 — especially presenting partners Western Economic Diversification Canada and the Province of British Columbia, and platinum partners the City of Abbotsford, Cascade Aerospace, KF Aerospace, and Lockheed Martin — for their generous and ongoing support, without which ADSE would not be possible.

    Plus question pour le Canada de se retirer du très coûteux programme des F-35 américains

    Par Stéphane Parent | francais@rcinet.ca Le responsable de l'approvisionnement militaire au ministère de la Défense révèle que le Canada, l'un des neuf pays partenaires du programme de mise au point des F-35, n'a pas planifié de s'en retirer. Il semble qu'Ottawa ira de l'avant avec le versement de dizaines de millions de dollars pour le développement de cet avion de chasse F-35, même si le gouvernement fédéral continue d'étudier la pertinence ou non d'acheter ces appareils pour remplacer près d'une centaine de CF-18 qui ont plus de 40 ans d'usure. Le F-35 figure parmi les quatre modèles qui seront évalués à partir du printemps prochain dans un appel d'offres de 19 milliards, qui résultera dans l'acquisition de 88 nouveaux avions de combat. Le Canada a investi plus de 500 millions dans le programme des F-35 au cours des 20 dernières années, dont 54 millions l'an dernier. Son prochain paiement annuel doit être fait ce printemps, et il y en aura sans doute d'autres, étant donné que l'appel d'offres n'est pas censé se conclure avant 2021 ou 2022. Ce versement annuel permet au Canada de demeurer pendant encore un an membre du club des neuf partenaires dans le projet du futur avion de chasse F-35, dont la mise au point connaît des déboires majeurs. La stratégie de rester dans le camp du F-35 Le Canada demeure donc résolument dans le camp de l'aviation militaire américaine avec l'Australie, le Danemark, l'Italie, la Norvège, les Pays-Bas, le Royaume-Uni et la Turquie. Ces pays pourront soumettre des offres pour les contrats de milliards de dollars liés à la fabrication et à l'entretien des avions de chasse, mais aussi bénéficier de rabais s'ils décident d'en acheter. D'autres modèles de rechange proposés sont de conception européenne – le Gripen de Saab, le Typhoon du consortium Eurofighter et le Rafale de Dassault – et Ottawa privilégie une conception http://www.rcinet.ca/fr/2019/01/24/plus-question-pour-le-canada-de-se-retirer-du-tres-couteux-programme-des-f-35-americains/

    Marinvent delivers 4.0-enabled Synthesis compliance tool to Government of Canada

    Marinvent has announced the successful delivery of its Synthesis compliance tools to the Government of Canada for testing under Innovative Solutions Canada (formerly the Build in Canada Innovation Program (BCIP)). Marinvent's “Synthesis” is a powerful, purpose-built, simple-to-use, Oracle web-based software tool for planning, optimization and management of complex programs that require the definition, collection and documentation of compliance artefacts against rigorous, externally-governed, processes and standards. Synthesis saves customers enormous amounts of time and money on certification programs, provides a real framework for re-use and provides management with an ideal tool to help integrate the supply chain and manage program risk. Synthesis ensures the completeness of compliance programs and provides real time visibility into the current status of such efforts, to minimize risk and add management oversight. Synthesis removes inconsistencies in certification documentation and forges unbreakable links between test standards and test results to ensure complete traceability, including on all modifications made to its database, without adding to the user's workload. “The BCIP program is fundamental to Marinvent's launch of Synthesis”, said Alistair Chapman, director, Marketing at Marinvent. “The Aerospace Engineering Test Establishment (AETE) is an ideal launch customer for Synthesis, and BCIP is one of the most relevant and important government programs out there for us.” Synthesis also links the governing requirements and corresponding test results at every level and does not allow test results to be detached from the governing requirements that they are linked to, nor does it allow the creation of unattached items. This means that every requirement has an unbreakable connection to all applicable supporting documents, corresponding test results, and, finally, to the acceptance records required by certification/airworthiness authorities. “We believe the benefits that we will demonstrate to AETE will have equal applicability to other parts of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF),” said Dr. John Maris, president at Marinvent. https://www.skiesmag.com/press-releases/marinvent-delivers-4-0-enabled-synthesis-compliance-tool-to-government-of-canada
