Canada seeks info on polar helicopters for civilian/commercial use.
The Government of Canada is seeking information for the Polar Helicopter Project, which involves the procurement of civilian and commercial rotary wing aircraft. This RFI replaces the previous one published in December 2023 and will serve as the primary source of information moving forward. The project aims to acquire helicopters for polar operations, likely requiring specialized capabilities for extreme environments. Interested vendors should contact the Contract Authority, Tim Blahey, for further details. The scale and duration are not specified, but the project appears to be a major procurement for the Canadian government.
