Time Synchronization and Triggering Module

The contract seeks the development and integration of a specialized Time Synchronization and Triggering Module designed to deliver ultra-precise time stamping by leveraging multiple input sources including computer-based clocks, GPS signals, and IRIG timing standards. This module must support advanced triggering capabilities such as pre-trigger recording to capture data prior to an event and dynamic gating to control when data acquisition is enabled or suspended, ensuring high-fidelity data collection in demanding operational environments. The system is intended for use in applications requiring synchronized, event-driven measurements with nanosecond-level accuracy across distributed platforms. The project is structured as a subcontract under the National Research Council of Canada, part of the Government of Canada, and falls under NAICS code 334511, indicating a focus on navigational, measuring, electromedical, and control instruments manufacturing. Responses are due by July 13, 2026, with the solicitation posted on June 1, 2026. There is no specified set-aside or target group for the award, and while the physical place of performance is not detailed, the work is expected to align with Canadian government technical and security requirements. The interface and performance specifications will need to ensure seamless compatibility with existing infrastructure and operational workflows used by national research and defense-related systems.
