National ANPR Service Programme - Client Side Support

Tender description

Why the Work is Being Done ANPR is widely used by Law Enforcement to detect, deter and disrupt criminal activity and is instrumental in protecting the public and saving lives. Existing ANPR systems across forces are disparate and may offer limited capability. There is a need for a National Collection of ANPR data to enable searching across Force boundaries. The system currently offering this, the National ANPR Data Collection is reaching end-of-life. NAS will replace NADC and local ANPR systems ensuring continuity of vital services, standardise use of ANPR across the country and provide many LEAs with tools to better exploit ANPR and protect the public. Problem to Be Solved Providing a National ANPR System is a huge undertaking. The existing ANPR estate across UK Law Enforcement is extremely complex with over 10,000 cameras feeding 40+ individual systems across LEAs, each of which has its own unique connections and partnership arrangements. Replacing the existing estate with a single system that works across all UK LEAs requires detailed technical design, robust testing and in-depth engagement bespoke to every one of these LEAs. A team with the right skills, experience and qualifications is therefore required to manage the project and ensure that all aspects are delivered within the necessary timescales.
