Tender description

Modification and update to address obsolescence issues on radio equipment currently fitted to N3 Dauphin platform Lot 1: The Dauphin (N3) AH Mk1 platform is fitted with the Sepura SRG 3500. Airwave will be wholly replaced by the Home Office led Emergency Services Network (ESN), with Airwave being decommissioned in Dec 2024 Special Projects Multi Air Platforms (SPMAP) DT are required to ensure the sustainment of the Airwave radio capability until 2024 when ESN will become active. The requirement is to replace the legacy Airwave radios with those procured through a separate project. The Authority intends to contract Chelton, as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the Control Head units, to conduct the software uplift required for the Control Heads, and complete the Airwave Reference Testing to deliver a fully certified system that can operate on the extant network.
