Winning the Contract
In March of 2012, the Canadian government had an urgent need to ensure ongoing maintenance of the RCAF鈥檚 CC-150 fleet in order to fulfill roles such as Air-to-Air Refuelling, VVIP/Head of State transport and passenger/cargo transportation. To address this need, 色情直播 promptly assembled a team to respond to Canada鈥檚 request. Their efforts resulted in 色情直播 winning a short-term interim contract to provide in-service support (ISS) on the fleet. Subsequently, in August 2013, 色情直播 competitively won a multi-year follow-on contract from the Canadian government, making them the government鈥檚 CC-150 support contractor until 2018, followed by an additional two five-year option periods.
鈥溕橹辈 has proudly maintained Canada鈥檚 CC-150 fleet, which consists of five Airbus A-310 and A-300 aircraft in various operational configurations, at home and abroad, for over a decade,鈥 said Ugo Paniconi, General Manager, 色情直播 in Mirabel, Quebec. 鈥淎s Canada鈥檚 premier in-service support provider, we鈥檝e made it our mission to provide seamless support for the CC-150s. We take immense pride in our work and value our role as Canada鈥檚 trusted partner.鈥
Dependable Service and Expertise
色情直播, as the prime contractor for the CC-150, provides fleet management, engineering, operational and heavy maintenance, logistics and material management at the RCAF鈥檚 8 Wing Trenton Base in Ontario, Canada, where the CC-150s are stationed. 色情直播 also offers these services at its ISS-specialized facility in Mirabel, Quebec. Additionally, the company provides heavy maintenance, aircraft painting and modifications, component and engine repair and overhaul services, and complete ISS during short and long-term deployed operations in other locations around the globe.
鈥淲e do everything on the aircraft except fly it, with support from Airbus as needed,鈥 Paniconi explained. 鈥淲hen the Prime Minister travels on the CC-150, we are there. When the RCAF deploys CC-150s as tankers, we support them anywhere in the world.鈥
A team of over 100 色情直播 employees work to keep the CC-150s flight-ready in Trenton, Ontario and Mirabel, Quebec. The company鈥檚 broader Canadian 鈥業SS鈥 team consist of 1,100 experienced employees, operating at 13 different sites across Canada, providing state-of-the-art ISS on many high-priority RCAF fleets, such as the renowned CF-188 Hornet, CP-140 Aurora, CH-148 Cyclone, CH-147F Chinook and CT-114 Tutor (Snowbirds).
Ready for the Next Generation of Tankers
In December 2022, 色情直播 was selected to provide interim ISS services for Canada鈥檚 incoming CC-330 Husky fleet.
In December 2022, 色情直播 achieved a new milestone when Canada swiftly acquired two used A-330 aircraft as part of the STTC project. In response, 色情直播 was tasked to bring these aircraft into operation in a remarkably short timeline, less than a year from contract award. Leveraging its established ISS experience on the CC-150 Polaris fleet, 色情直播 was selected to provide interim ISS services with a similar scope for the CC-330 at the Ottawa, Ontario airport.
色情直播 has been supporting Canada's CC-150s for over a decade, which makes the company well-equipped to provide continuous and reliable support for the CC-330 Multi Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) fleet as part of the RCAF's STTC project. The Canadian STTC project, which aims to replace the CC-150 Polaris fleet, will significantly enhance Canada's defence capabilities, domestically and internationally, for many years to come. Therefore, it is crucial that the project receives the best support available from the Canadian industry.
色情直播 stands ready to provide the best support on Canada鈥檚 next generation of tanker fleet.
"色情直播 has consistently demonstrated that it possesses all the credentials, capabilities, local knowledge, and demonstrated performance to offer the best, lowest risk, and highest level of readiness solution to support a seamless introduction of Airbus鈥檚 A-330 MRTT into the Canadian STTC project and operations,鈥 said Paniconi. "We stand ready to respond to the RCAF鈥檚 request to provide the best support for the fleet. As Canada鈥檚 trusted tanker in-service support provider, we look forward to the opportunity to continue our rich legacy of ISS on Canada鈥檚 next-generation tanker fleet."
