Manufacture and Supply of up to Four New Multi-Engine Turbo Prop Pressurized Aircraft

The Government of Saskatchewan, through SaskBuilds and Procurement, is seeking proposals to manufacture and supply up to four new multi-engine turboprop pressurized aircraft to replace its current fleet of four Beechcraft King Air B200s, which are equipped with medical interiors for air ambulance services across the province. This initiative is part of a five-year fleet replacement plan aimed at enhancing safety and dispatch reliability for patient and medical crew transport. The solicitation, identified as SK-9123, invites qualified manufacturers to submit detailed proposals by the deadline of August 7, 2026, with an optional virtual proponent meeting scheduled for June 22, 2026, to provide insight into procurement requirements and deliverables. Interested parties must register their attendance by June 18, 2026, by emailing rfxquestions@gov.sk.ca with attendee names and any preliminary questions. The RFP is classified under NAICS code 336411 for aircraft manufacturing and is open to all eligible proponents without specific set-asides. While the agency is listed as SaskBuilds and Procurement under the Government of Saskatchewan, the tender is hosted on the federal platform Canadabuys, and the point of contact is Ryan Gianoli, Contracting Authority. Proposals must address technical specifications for aircraft capable of operating in Saskatchewan’s diverse environmental conditions, including medical interior configurations, maintenance support, and compliance with regulatory standards. Any updates or changes to the procurement process will be communicated through SaskTenders via official addenda, and attendance at the proponent meeting is strongly encouraged to ensure a complete understanding of requirements before submission.
