One key tool carried by our troops - and currently past its end of life - is a hand-held thermal imager with a laser range finding capability. This capability gap will be resolved through the procurement of the LRF HHTI-LR System. The main component of this system is a hand-held binocular device with a laser range finder, a cooled thermal channel, a secondary channel for day & low light conditions and a laser pointer. The LRF HHTI-LR will be used by soldiers and sailors to enable timely detection, recognition and identification of objects of interest under varying conditions of light and visibility. It will be capable of accurate geolocation and imaging of targets and onward transmission of target data and imagery to other systems. The system will be used by the Canadian Army in the roles of combat arms leader, sniper, reconnaissance and other similar roles. It will also be used by the Royal Canadian Navy by boarding parties, to enhance general situational awareness, and for security surveillance when in port. This Request for Proposal (RFP) process will result in 1 evaluation phase, comprised of multiple steps, which will result in 2 contracts, 1 Acquisition contract and 1 In-Service Support contract, that will be awarded to the same company. Delivery Date: Above-mentioned The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any procurement. Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
