Gastops FluidSIGHT™ Selected for Royal Canadian Navy Evaluation Through Innovative Solutions Canada

Published

on

OTTAWA, ON, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Gastops, a leader in intelligent condition monitoring and predictive maintenance solutions, has been awarded a contract under the Government of Canada’s Innovative Solutions Canada (ISC) Testing Stream program.

Through the project, FluidSIGHT™ will be demonstrated and evaluated in collaboration with the Department of National Defence (DND) to support ongoing efforts to advance condition-based and predictive maintenance capabilities within the Royal Canadian Navy.

As part of the project, Gastops will deliver FluidSIGHT™ systems, software, training, installation support, and technical expertise to support testing and evaluation activities. Testing will take place across multiple operational and laboratory environments, including facilities in Ottawa and Montreal, as well as aboard marine vessels operating in Atlantic Canada.

FluidSIGHT™ is a real-time oil condition, contamination, and wear monitoring system that provides continuous visibility into lubricant health. By moving beyond periodic oil sampling and laboratory testing, the system helps operators make more intelligent maintenance decisions based on real-time equipment condition.

The project is an important milestone for FluidSIGHT™ following its launch earlier this year and will support evaluation of the technology across a range of operational and laboratory environments. Testing will assess the system’s ability to accurately monitor lubricant health and provide real-time insight into equipment condition.

“This project represents the next step in FluidSIGHT’s evolution from innovation to real-world application,” said Shaun Horning, President & CEO of Gastops. “For more than four decades, Gastops has helped maintainers make informed decisions through equipment health intelligence. We are proud to work alongside the Government of Canada and the Department of National Defence to demonstrate how real-time condition awareness can contribute to readiness, availability, and more efficient sustainment practices.”

The project aligns with DND’s interest in transitioning from traditional schedule-based maintenance toward more efficient condition-based and predictive maintenance approaches that improve materiel availability, support data-driven decision-making, and enhance operational readiness.

“Maintenance teams have more data available than ever before, but what matters is turning that data into action,” said Brennan West, Vice President, Energy, Marine & Land at Gastops. “FluidSIGHT provides real-time visibility into equipment condition, helping maintainers identify issues earlier, better understand asset health, and make more informed decisions that improve availability and support readiness.”

Gastops will be exhibiting at DEFSEC Atlantic 2026 in Halifax, Nova Scotia from October 6-8. Attendees are invited to visit the team at Booth B107 to learn more about FluidSIGHT™ and other Gastops technologies supporting equipment health intelligence, predictive maintenance, and operational readiness.

LeapXpert and Carahsoft Partner to Bring Governed Messaging Solutions to the Public Sector

Advanced Communications Platform Now Available to Federal, State and Local Government Agencies

NEW YORK and RESTON, Va., Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LeapXpert, the leader in Governed Communication Intelligence, and Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®, today announced a partnership to bring governed messaging to the Public Sector. Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as LeapXpert’s Master Government Aggregator®, making The LeapXpert Communications Platform available to Federal, State and Local Government agencies through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and The Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS), OMNIA Partners, E&I Cooperative Services Contract and The Quilt contracts.

Government officials increasingly rely on consumer messaging channels, including WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage and SMS, to communicate with colleagues, constituents and external stakeholders. Yet many agencies lack the infrastructure needed to capture, govern and archive these conversations in accordance with National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) record retention requirements, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) obligations and broader Federal security mandates. The result is a growing compliance gap between how Public Sector employees communicate and what agencies can account for.

The LeapXpert Communications Platform enables secure communication across consumer messaging channels while capturing conversations in real time, allowing organizations to apply policy and governance as communications take place. LeapXpert serves hundreds of enterprise customers and hundreds of thousands of employees and professionals across 50 countries, spanning financial services, Government and the Forbes Global 2000.

“Federal employees are already having these conversations on WhatsApp and Signal. Until now, the record of them lived on a personal phone, outside every system meant to protect it,” said Avi Pardo, Co-Founder and CBO at LeapXpert. “Government is now our fastest-growing segment, and the demand is arriving faster than a direct sales motion can meet it. Carahsoft brings the agency relationships and the contract reach to close that gap, and its reseller and value-added partner community extends it further than we could build on our own timeline.”

“Government agencies need secure, governed communications across the messaging channels their employees already rely on,” said Brian O’Donnell, Vice President of Cybersecurity Solutions at Carahsoft. “LeapXpert’s Communications Platform provides agencies with a scalable path to integrate governed messaging across their organization, providing a solution that meets Federal security and compliance requirements. Together with our reseller partners, Carahsoft and LeapXpert are delivering Government-grade, mission-ready messaging security across the Public Sector.”

LeapXpert’s solutions are available through Carahsoft’s TIPS Contract #220105, OMNIA Partners Contract #R240303, E&I Contract #EI00063~2021MA and The Quilt Master Service Agreement Number MSA05012019-F.
