Notice Information
Notice Title
Sample Harvesting Media Project
Notice Description
The Threat Mitigation Technologies department within the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) provides technical advice and capabilities to a range of operational policing customer groups. One capability is the development of explosives detection capabilities for various operational requirements and infrastructures. As such, a requirement has arisen for a project to further optimise a detection capability by reviewing and testing the sample harvesting media used to interrogate samples within the current in-service, high assurance Trace Explosives Detection (ETD) system. The testing will require demonstrations of efficiencies over the complete detection system based on a triple quad mass spectrometer with a thermal desorption unit front end. This development will include; 1. Literature review, selection and testing of potential sample media. 2. Selection and baselining of two alternative sample media to the current Whatman no. 2 media against MPS defined examples of a nitroester, a nitroaromatic and a nitroamine. Further details on these requirements will be available on request to richard.warren2@met.police.uk Any supplier responding to this opportunity must demonstrate that they have appropriate equipment, expertise and experience to complete this work successfully. Additional information: Electronic quotations must be emailed back to richard.warren2@met.police.uk no later than 16:00 on 21/04/2023. Any supplier responding to this opportunity must demonstrate that they have appropriate expertise and experience to complete this work successfully. The quotations should include all the points detailed in this request for quotation.
