The goal is to sustain and enhance long-term atmospheric measurements critical for monitoring air quality, climate change, and atmospheric chemistry by improving detection limits for emerging trace gases, increasing vertical and temporal resolution, and enabling new observations in the lower troposphere. The project will focus on maturing spaceborne Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy technology using solar occultation, building upon proven heritage instruments while optimizing key parameters such as mass, volume, and power consumption. Development efforts include designing, testing, and characterizing the FTS-ADCI instrument under laboratory conditions to verify spectral range, resolution, signal-to-noise ratio, and field of view, alongside detailed analysis of atmospheric constituents relevant to global environmental change. The contractor will be expected to deliver comprehensive engineering documentation, design revisions, and functional prototype hardware as part of an evolving, multi-year development plan. This solicitation, issued under reference number 9F063-20260086 and posted by the Government of Canada through the Canadian Space Agency, outlines a procurement opportunity with a response deadline of July 27, 2026. The work will be performed in Longueuil, Canada, and all correspondence should be directed to the R&D Procurement office at rdapprovisionnements-procurements@asc-csa.gc.ca. The initiative is structured to support sustained collaboration over several years, leading to the eventual flight-ready instrument capable of continuing and expanding the vital atmospheric data records established by its predecessor.
