Ocean Connector: Developing Next-Gen Dockyard Solutions

Thales Canada, Datifex, and COVE discuss developing Challenges to deliver innovative tools to support the AJISS program.

As the prime contractor of the AJISS program, Thales Canada partnered with COVE to develop the Naval Technology Innovation Challenges. The Challenges provided Start-Ups and SMEs working in Atlantic Canada with the opportunity to deliver solutions to some of the most complex challenges the Royal Canadian Navy faces—providing a methodology to evaluate naval condition-based maintenance solutions and developing innovative tools that deconflict activities in a navy dockyard.

On July 20th, Datifex, the winning proponent of the Digital Dockyard Challenge, will join COVE and Thales Canada to discuss their solutions that will accelerate the modernization and digitalization of naval operations.

Thales Canada will discuss the Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ships and Joint Support Ships (AJISS) program and how developing initiatives like the Naval Technology Innovation Challenges with COVE helps extend their commitment to Canada by investing in R&D and collaborating with leading Canadian small and medium-sized enterprises to develop and commercialize key industrial capabilities.
