Public Services and Procurement Canada will hold a Future Aircrew Training industry day on May 2 in Ottawa. Companies are required to sign up for the meeting by April 27.

The government will eventually renew its existing aircrew training services. Future aircrew training services will include classroom instruction, simulator and flight training, as well as numerous on-site support activities. The future program will include delivery of pilot training, as well as aircrew training for air combat systems officers and airborne electronic sensor operators currently being performed in-house by the Royal Canadian Air Force.

A Request for Proposals is expected to be released in 2019, according to Public Services and Procurement Canada. The contract will be awarded in 2021. The Defence Acquisition Guide had previously listed the value of the contract as “more than $1.5 billion.”

The idea at this point appears to be a merger of existing programs (NATO Flying Training Canada, Contracted Flying Training and Support, etc) under one contract.
