Opportunity for JCBPP and IP in the security sector
Security-1
Initial Conclusions

The initial conclusions of iProcureNet project refer to the potential for JCBPP of innovation in the following areas:
  Simulation systems
  Robotics
  Detection of false identity documents
  The detection of substances
  Drones
  The fight against cybercrime
  Ballistic vests, and
  Vehicle armouring.

iProcureNet developed a market analysis of the most promising segments.
  Prior market analysis or market research

  • Is a search for products and suppliers that fall within the scope of each specific segments
  • Analyses the state of art of a given sector
  • Can be formal: preliminary market consultation
  • Can be informal: asking within networks, “googling” solutions, ask colleagues, collecting information on conferences or fairs

  Steps to conduct market analysis

  • Identification of possible suppliers of security solutions
  • Engage with the market
    • Learn about innovation in segments from market players
    • Collecting, through an online survey, the information about suppliers that could deliver the products and solutions in each specific segment
      • Information will include suppliers size, market power, previous experience within the EU market
    • Analyses should provide, at least, 3 suppliers, including suppliers from other Member States

  Solution comparison where possible

    • The online survey contained specific questions aimed at getting detailed information about products and possible solutions
    • The available solutions are classified based on the following:
      • Cost-benefit analysis,
      • Identification of different technical properties and performance, and
      • The total cost of ownership over the whole life cycle of solutions.

  Assessment of each market in given segment.

Revised list of segments for JCBPP

1. DRONES/Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)

  Suitable for JCBPP as COTS or as innovative implementation of solutions

  There should be considered:

  • The applicable Directive
  • The suitable award procedure
  • The suitable type of contract

  Suitable for JCBPP from national budget or funds

  If considering EU Funding:

  • Suitable for purchasing as COTS under ISF
  • Suitable for development of innovative solutions and prototype or related cooperation under Europe2030

2. BALLISTIC VESTS

  Suitable for JCBPP as COTS or as innovative implementation of solutions

  There should be considered:

  • The applicable Directive
  • The suitable award procedure
  • The suitable type of contract

  Suitable for JCBPP from national budget or funds

  If considering EU Funding:

  • Suitable for purchasing as COTS under ISF
  • Suitable for development of innovative solutions and prototype or related cooperation under Horizon Europe

3. METAL DETECTORS

  Suitable for JCBPP as COTS or as innovative implementation of solutions

  There should be considered:

  • The applicable Directive
  • The suitable award procedure
  • The suitable type of contract

  Suitable for JCBPP from national budget or funds

If considering EU Funding:

  • Suitable for purchasing as COTS under ISF
  • Suitable for development of innovative solutions and prototype or related cooperation under Horizon Europe

  There exist legal and regulatory pathways for JCBPP of COTS products as well as for purchasing solutions with innovative implementation

COTS products are more easily suitable for JCBPP both from a legal assessment viewpoint while innovative implementation or innovative development aspects are more suitable for financing from EU funds, also by applying JCBPP
