Description of the procurement
The Authority is seeking a Contractor to provide Forensic Tagging Spray and Associated Services. The requirement is for a handheld spray canister that can be used to spray suspects with a Forensic Traceable Liquid.
The objective of this is to be able to assist police with the identification of suspects. These suspects can be sprayed with a traceable liquid as they make-off from the police, and when the suspects later come to the attention of the police, the spray marks can be found upon them, or their property. Marks can subsequently be forensically analysed to establish which spray canister they came from. Police records will then be used to identify the time, date and reported crime relating to use of the canister connecting the relevant information to support core frontline policing activities.
Forensic spray tagging was only recently adopted by the MPS as a tactical option to help identify suspects involved in powered-two-wheeler (P2W (e.g. mopeds / scooters / motorcycles)) criminality. This was in response to a significant rise in P2W enabled crime, which is affecting all 32 London Boroughs. The MPS are always reviewing tactical options and responding to changes in crime types.
The Authority/MPS may, during the life of the contract, look to develop its strategy in the deployment of forensic tagging of suspects for other crime types. It is not yet known if or how the spray tagging will be advantageous in other tactical methods in the future.
The Lot covers:
Goods
• A hand-held canister that sprays a traceable liquid substance onto persons and property that can be identified under a UV light.
Services
• Forensic Analytical Services including the collection of exhibits/evidential samples.
