Introduction
1. This Update to Industry continues the discussion regarding
Canada's Future Pilot Training (FPT) and follows on from
previous engagements:
a. September 2013 - 2013 Request for Information (RFI)
publication;
b. February 2014 - Industry Engagement Session;
c. April 2014 - 2nd RFI;
d. May 2014 - 2nd Industry Engagement Session.
Background
2. The information received during the February and May 2014
sessions and internal staff analysis identified that a full
implementation of the FPT system will not be achievable in time
to avoid a training gap upon completion of the current NATO
Flying Training in Canada (NFTC) training services contract. An
interim Future Pilot Training solution (iFPT) will therefore be
required to ensure the continuity of pilot training. As a
consequence, the original FPT Project will remain in Options
Analysis (OA) and is being re-profiled to deliver the
comprehensive long-term pilot training requirements for Canada
later than previously published.
Discussion
3. Canada recognises that there has already been a significant
amount of valuable open engagement and dialogue with industry as
part of the initial work to help understand the challenges of
FPT. This existing work and outputs from previous engagements
continues to be evaluated to ascertain what benefits may be
transferred into the efforts now focusing on iFPT.
4. The iFPT project team is currently working to establish the
strategic requirements and identify the business needs required
to allow it to receive approval to start its OA process. It is
anticipated that a further RFI may be released once this initial
scoping work has been completed.
Responses Requested
5. No response to this update is requested from industry. The
purpose is to inform industry that there has been a change in
the FPT project and that a new project, iFPT has been created to
address any potential gap in pilot training.
6. This change to how Canada intends to implement FPT will be
included in the next edition of the Defence Acquisition Guide
(DAG).
7. Questions or requests for the FPT or iFPT project should be
sent to: (email on the official notice).
