The request for infromation is issued to gather information from market participants regarding innovative solutions, technologies and services applicable to police forensic investigation operations. National Bureau of Investigation is particularly interested in solutions originating from sectors other than forensic science, including healthcare, logistics, manufacturing, defence, critical infrastructure, laboratory environments, asset management and professional services. Solutions do not need to have been originally designed for forensic investigations. Respondents are encouraged to present commercially available products, platforms or services that could be adapted to forensic operations with reasonable configuration, integration or customization effort. The long-term objective is to enable one integrated service and information system ecosystem rather than isolated point solutions. The purpose of this RFI is to: • understand the state of the market, emerging innovations and relevant technology trends; • identify technical, functional, organizational and service-related capabilities available in the market; • identify solutions that may improve operational efficiency, quality management, traceability, resource planning, interoperability and decision-making; • support future procurement planning, including possible open procedures, competitive procedures with negotiation, innovation partnerships or other suitable procurement approaches. More details are in appendix 1. RESPONDING TO REQUEST FOR INFORMATION Respondents are invited to provide clear, concise and structured responses. Responses may include descriptive text, diagrams, references to standards, product or service descriptions, and anonymized case examples. For each proposed solution, respondents should explicitly state which RFI Part or Parts the solution covers.
