Ministry of Defence - ASMP Training Device Qualification Solution

The Ministry of Defence Air Surveillance Maritime Patrol (ASMP) Project, on behalf of the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) purchased four Poseidon P-8A aircraft. As part of this purchase, a P-8A Flight Simulation Training Device (FSTD) has been purchased and will be housed within the new infrastructure at RNZAF Base Ōhakea known as Te Whare Toroa.

To effectively integrate the P-8A FSTD into the Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) qualification programme, FSTD activities must occur in line with NZDF Airworthiness Authority (NZAF AA) and Defence Aviation Regulation (DAR) orders. The Crown requires that all facets of the FSTD meet these requirements.

This RFP seeks Proposals from Respondents that have the requisite skills, knowledge and experience to provide a Training Device Qualification Solution that meets all applicable standards, while meeting the required timelines.
