Notice Information
Notice Title
715761462 UK5 Transp CBRN
Notice Description
To reduce the risk of EHI, maximum PPE wear-time is regulated by work-rest schedules, which are adjusted according to work rate and weather conditions. Currently, the work-rest schedules are thought to be too conservative, preventing specialist users from training effectively. This 3-year applied physiology-neuroscience project aims to calibrate the current work-rest schedules.
Procurement Information
As per PA23 Schedule 2 Subject - Matter Exempted Contracts (including Research and development services at Para 22)
