1. Emergency Services CBRN PPE The Emergency Services Show September 2014 Malcolm Peattie and Pat Robinson

2. Presentation Overview Caveat Joint working re-cap PPE workstreams Technical Specification Work Testing and evaluation Potential Procurement options Future Industry Engagement

3. Caveat Continuing to engage Procurement underway for GTS Imminent procurement for PRPS No procurement for Police PPER yet No guaranteed procurement for the future BUT replacement for police PPE required

4. MP3S Joint Working Re-Cap Consolidated requirement reflects all responders from all agencies – remains the baseline Common Evaluation Process for technical assessment agreed by all agencies All agencies represented on Police PPER Programme and Project Boards All emergency responder procurement managed by CCS (Military procurement managed by DE&S) Funding for purchases by individual agencies

5. Workstreams Overview Gastight Suit DCLG-led and CCS Managed Procurement Framework to maintain FRS capability & support all agencies Powered Air Purifying Respirator Suit (PAPR) DCLG-led and CCS Managed Procurement Framework to maintain FRS capability & support all agencies Police PPE Replacement Home Office (OSCT)-led and CCS Managed Procurement Framework to maintain police capability & support all agencies

6. Police PPE Replacement (PPER) No procurement yet Police PPER developing alongside response review Review will confirm response numbers Police requirements being identified - Primary Other requirements also considered Will take into account other PPE work (GTS/PAPR) Developing testing and evaluation plan

7. Police PPER Technical Evaluation - Overall Process Stage A - Paper-based evaluation –Standard-based where possible –Based on some or all of BS EN 943:1-2002; BS 8467:2006; BS 8468:2008 Stage B - User / Wearer Trials + Physiological Stage C – Main Protection Testing

8. Police PPER Technical Evaluation - Protection Testing Technical testing likely to be separately procured User trial Mechanical testing Physiological testing Protection testing Live agent Other challenges MIST Respiratory protection testing Full system testing 8

9. DCLG-Led PPE Workstreams Gastight Suit Currently in procurement process (CCS) Expect to confirm contract award soon PAPR OJEU to be issued soon Contract award planned for early 2015

10. Police PPER Potential Procurement Routes Using baseline consolidated user requirement Developing technical requirements/specification Identifying capabilities required (‘lots’) Expecting two additional ensembles (‘lots’) Expecting single supplier for each ensemble (‘lot’) Evaluation process – downselect + fit for purpose

11. Conclusion Continuing engagement intended to be: Frequent Open As full as possible Individual queries will be answered in public

12. Future Engagement Potential Industry Day Operational Context – document release and practical demonstration of activities required Update on technical specification Update on testing and evaluation process Update on technical testing facilities sought Update on procurement timing and options Open forum + limited one to one opportunities 12
