Question 2

What is Department of National Defence looking for?

Accepted Answer

Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), on behalf of the Department of National Defence (DND), is soliciting proposals for the procurement of shelf stable combat rations under the National Combat Ration Program (NCRP) to support Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) training, domestic operations, deployed operations, and emergency situations.  The RFP represents two procurement approaches: a Prime Vendor approach where a single contractor manages all components, or a Category by Category approach where multiple contracts are awarded by component category.

Question 3

How do I find RFPs before my competitors?

Accepted Answer

Starbridge centralizes thousands of state, local, education, and university bid portals into one AI-powered feed. We monitor 24/7 and alert you the moment an RFP drops, so you're always first to know. Plus, we track early buying signals—like contract expirations and meeting minutes—months before RFPs are released.

Question 4

Should I wait for the RFP to be released?

Accepted Answer

No. If you're not already part of the RFP writing process, you're already behind. Starbridge helps you identify opportunities months early through buying signals like strategic plans, board meeting mentions, contract expirations, and new budgets—so you can influence requirements before competitors even see the RFP.
