Notice Information

Notice Title

Provision of Research Services - Custody

Notice Description

The Office of the Police & Crime Commissioner for Dyfed Powys and Dyfed Powys Police have been successful in securing a grant from The Home Office Police Innovation Fund. The bid aims to improve the protection of vulnerable and intoxicated detainees in custody. The Home Office Scientific Development Branch completed a review of Life Signs Monitoring (LSM) within custody cells. Their report outlined results from a technical and operational assessment of Cell Occupant / Occupancy Monitoring Systems (COMS). Several incidents resulted in the review which led onto recommendations for improved development. We are seeking to further develop this by exploring new technology that will support and improve the protection of our most vulnerable in custody. To take this work forward, we are seeking to commission a piece of research from a specialist organisation with the proven competence to complete the research and consultation and, based on the outcomes; propose a scientific design of a future system. As part of the research, we are happy for you to work with other organisations if necessary to complete the deliverables. We would suggest that you speak to experts as a minimum and recommend Home Office CAST (Centre of Applied Science and Technology), who are already aware of our intent to commission this research and with whom links have already been established. NOTE: The authority is using eTenderwales to carry out this procurement process. Additional information: Please note this tender is being undertaken through the above tendering portal. All responses must be returned through this portal.
