BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 4.1 To enable Border Force to meet its key objectives it is imperative that the correct equipment exists to do so. Given the geographical spread of the force and the location of staff, a fleet comprising of safe and fit for purpose vehicles is essential.
4.2 The Fleet to be replaced is at the end of its economic life.
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 4.1 The appointed contractor must supply and install where required the equipment as specified in Section 5 of this document into the Authority’s existing vehicles..
4.2 The contractor MUST also be able to provide fully VCA section 25 approved crash tested headrest camera units, as indicated at condition 5.7.1 of this documents..
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 4.1 HMPO require contract tenure of 3 (three) years (1+1+1), during this time it is likely that any digital solution to capture customer images will be investigated in full.
4.2 The successful supplier will be required to supply all equipment, consumables, technical support, maintenance and management for twelve (12) Photo Booths installed at various locations and as described within this Appendix B – Statement of Requirement.
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 4.1 The Cyber Streetwise campaign is one of the initiatives funded under the NCSP. It aims to drive behaviour change in consumers and SMEs so that they adopt simple safe online behaviours, with the aim of ultimately reducing online financial crime.
4.2 The campaign launched in January 2014 with one main objective:
4.2.1 To increase the security measures (safe online behaviours*) which adults 18+ and SMEs put in place to protect themselves by 4.5 to 5% by March 2015 – from 63% and 8% respectively. Equating to an annual estimated avoided fraud loss of between £77 to 86 million a year (Annex F provides detail on this calculation) * Based on a composite of 10+ measures. See Annex B for a full breakdown of the online behaviours which are tracked
4.2.2 The campaign approach was informed by the National Fraud Authority’s consumer and SME segmentation models, which segmented consumers and SMEs based on their online attitudes and behaviours to fraud (see Annexes C & D). In 2015/16, the campaign approach and targeting will be based on the new Serious and Organised Crime Segmentation.
4.2.3 The campaign uses a variety of paid for, owned (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and Vine) and partner channels to increase the reach of the campaign. To maximise the impact of partner activity match funding is available, enabling partners’ investment to be matched with paid for media.
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 5.1 The way in which health and safety is coordinated has recently changed with structure changes within CAST, the creation of an Infrastructure, Safety and Security Team including splitting responsibilities and appointment of a H&S coordinator. This audit and review will be able to offer a baseline of our current policies, practices and procedures and evaluate the adequacy of these, providing recommendations for improvement and increasing compliance.
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 5.1 All learner riders must successfully complete a Compulsory Basic Training (CBT) course before they are permitted to ride on the road. These courses are usually completed in a day. The course syllabus is discussed in more detail in the scope section. CBT course certificates are valid for two years, during which time the learner can gain experience and take their theory and practical motorcycle tests. Learner riders aged 19 or over who wish to practise on the road on a motorcycle with an engine larger than 125 cc can do so if they are supervised by an approved motorcycle instructor.
5.2 However, learner riders using machines with an engine size of 125 cc or below may choose not to take further training or seek to pass their motorcycle test. They may instead opt to repeat the CBT course, becoming “permanent learners”. Research2 suggests that over two thirds of learner riders aged under 24 have only ever taken CBT.
5.3 CBT is only intended to be the starting point in learning to ride. Following CBT the Authority would expect learner riders to take further training and go on to take their motorcycle test. However, we are aware that there is a tendency for some riders to only ever take CBT, so there is a concern that the current training course may not be sufficient for permanent learners, especially those with little previous on-road experience.
5.4 The Authority, therefore, need to ensure that CBT continues to be fit for purpose in meeting the needs of new young riders. And, given the culture of permanent learners, there is a need to enhance some elements of it for this group of vulnerable road users.
5.5 While the existing CBT provides a basic grounding for learner motorcyclists, there appear to be gaps in the skills that it provides to young motorcyclists in particular. There is clear evidence that this rider group is more likely to have a collision, and that collisions involving this group are more likely to be due to inexperience.
5.6 At present, DSA sells books of CBT certificates to CBT providers, but does not collect information on who is given a certificate as a result of having completed the course. This means that the Authority have very little data, other than anecdotal data, about who is taking CBT and what their motivations are.
5.7 In thinking about reforms to CBT, the Authority need to consider carefully how these would affect the recipients of CBT.
5.8 The Authority would therefore like to undertake research to gain a more detailed understa...
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 1. The Authority requires a selection of metal storage containers with lids in varying sizes as detailed in section 5. The metal storage containers will be used to ensure that prohibited electronic stun and incapacitating devices are stored safely.
2. The procurement is seeking a call off contract for the provision of the storage containers over a 3 year period but there is no commitment to any volumes beyond the initial call off.
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. The DfT runs three surveys to capture details of the activity of UK registered Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs). The three surveys are: The Continuing Survey of Roads Goods Transport, GB (CSRGT GB). This captures details of domestic activity of GB-registered HGVs. More details can be found: xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xx/government/publications/continuing-survey-of-road-goods-transport- gb-respondents-section The Continuing Survey of Roads Goods Transport, NI (CSRGT NI). This captures details of domestic and international activity of NI-registered HGVs. More details can be found: xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xx/government/publications/continuing-survey-of-road-goods-transport- ni-respondents-section The International Road Haulage Survey (IRHS). This captures details of international activity of GB- registered HGVs. More details can be found: xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xx/government/publications/international-road-haulage-survey- respondents-section
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 46.1 The requirement is to procure two (2) miniature thermal imaging cameras which meet the criteria below.
BACKGROUND TO REQUIREMENT/OVERVIEW OF REQUIREMENT. 4.1 At the end of 2013, the Authority published an interim report which:
4.1.1 identified and recommended options for maintaining the UK’s status as an international hub for aviation including the need for one net, new runway in South East England by 2030; and
4.1.2 considered long-term options for increasing aviation capacity – including major infrastructure and any surface transport needs they may entail – and identified a list of 3 credible options for a new runway in South East England – two at Heathrow Airport by Heathrow Airport Ltd and Heathrow Hub Ltd and one at Gatwick proposed by Gatwick Airport Ltd - to be further developed before the Authority’s final report.
4.2 The second phase of the Authority’s work involves developing the three short listed options into detailed schemes, and subjecting them to a thorough appraisal process.
