Market Sounding - CL-215R Avionics & Instrumentation Modernization
Synopsis:

The Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) is seeking non-binding market input from industry to better understand available approaches, technologies, certification pathways, indicative timelines, and broad cost ranges for a modern instrumentation and avionics refit of its De Havilland (Canadair) CL-215T aircraft fleet.

SPSA operates a fleet of six (6), CL-215T aircraft, primarily supporting wildfire suppression and emergency response operations.

The Agency has previously modernized select avionics components and is seeking to better understand:

  • Industry best practices for avionics and instrumentation modernization
  • Opportunities to leverage existing installed equipment
  • Certification and implementation considerations
  • Order-of-magnitude cost implications at a fleet and per-aircraft level

This RFI is issued for planning and information-gathering purposes only and is not a solicitation. No evaluation, ranking, negotiation, or vendor selection will occur as a result of this RFI.
