Introduction
1.1
Following a review of operational policing services and the development of a
new Operational Policing Model (OPM), North Yorkshire Police Service are keen to
source a solution and work with a supplier who is capable of upgrading their current
Mobile Asset Utilisation and Deployment System(MAUDS) infrastructure and work
with the service to embed a range of functionality that will support the OPM.
Suppliers are requested to review and respond to this ITT document detailing how
they would provide the appropriate functionality, where relevant providing
examples of how this has been delivered in other organisations. Or, if the relevant
functionality is not yet within your product set how and when you propose to have
this available.
2.
Context
2.1
NYP covers an area 3200 sq miles having a population of approx. 800,000,
and is the largest single police service area in the country. We are consistently one of
the safest services in the country and work hard to maintain this position. The
service employs approx 1390 police officers and 1000 police staff, including 180
PCSOs, and like most other public sector organisations is working hard to deliver
continued levels of service against a back drop of reducing funding. This has required
the service to look at all areas of the organisation and modify how we do things,
utilising technology to its best possible advantage. This is an on-going process and
the upgrading of the MAUDS system is a key element of this.
2.2
Alongside the police officer and staff numbers the service currently has 502
vehicles. The majority of NYP’s fleet would be within the scope of the MAUDS
project. However, there must exist the ability to turn officer and vehicle tracking off,
when these are engaged in some operational situations.
2.3
Being a geographically large and rural county there are significant areas that
suffer from poor mobile data connectivity on such as 3G/4G and in some of the more
remote areas there is limited Airwave TETRA connectivity.
2.4
NYP want to embed a more tasking orientated culture into their deployment
processes. Previously technology has not supported this, thus relying on officers to
volunteer to attend an incident rather than a controller having all the information
they need to be able to confidently task a resource.
2.5
The Service is also currently in the early stages of a mobile data project with
the intention of rolling out a mobile data solution to the vast majority of operational
officers, PCSOs and some staff. Any MAUDS solution must be compatible with
industry standard mobile technologies, devices and their Operating Systems i.e.
NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED
Version: Final 15.01.15
Page 3 of 29
NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED
Android, IoS and Windows. Appendix A shows a diagram detailing the current
technical topology of the existing MAUDS solution.
2.6
Many of the service police stations are located in rural areas as is the current
service headquarters. Details of these can be provided if required.
3.
Requirements
3.1
The service have conducted significant research into current MAUDS
technologies, including engagement with other forces who are using the technology
and the operational improvements and cashable benefits they have been able to
achieve. This information has then been used internally to inform NYP’s
development and design of the new OPM. Listed below are the requirements, from a
MAUDS system, that the service has identified as being key enablers to driving
improvements in operational policing, raising customer satisfaction levels and
ensuring NYP are delivering the most effective possible policing service.
3.2
NYP require potential suppliers to respond to this ITT, identifying how they
can assist the organisation in delivering its new OPM and achieving the expected
operational and financial benefits. The proposed solution should be specified from a
perspective that the successful supplier will be providing a complete solution to NYP
to include: all associated hardware, and any fitting costs as detailed in section 8 Technical Considerations
 all associated software
 initial training
 interfaces
 consultancy
 support (implementation, rollout and after sales support)
 data migration
 upgrades and consultancy as required with other suppliers (these may
include Northgate for mapping, Steria for Storm, APD for Tetra Gateway
(TGW) and Cortex) to ensure full integration with our existing systems
 any other associated services required for a successful deployment of the
technology
 configuration of the backhaul of data over 3G/4G, a potential for multi-telcos
SIM cards, associated car mount antennas and the sizing and scoping of the
actual data channel from vehicle to data centre
This list is not exhaustive and further details are provided in Section 2. NYP would
also be interested in a hosted and managed solution (that was fully PSNP compliant),
if this is a service that you offer, please provide costing’s on a separate table
provided in Appendix A – pricing schedule. Not being able to provide this service will
not disadvantage your submission and does not form part of the scoring process.

Phase 2.
1.
Improved Resource Management - This section represents 8% of the total score
1.1
Current Processes
NYP have existing MAUDS technology, that was originally installed in the early 2000’s. This can be interrogated at a unit level, but lacks the
tools to aggregate and analyse activity and movements at a force level.
1.2
Expected Benefits
 Evidence based analysis of resource usage and attendance at location targets
 Be able to demonstrate officer attendance at given patrol targets internally and to the public
 Enable controllers and commanders to deploy operational resources more effectively by balancing the priorities of proactive and reactive
tasks to meet irregular levels of demand
 Enhance officer safety and provide more responsive support by tracking officer deployment in “real-time”
 Increase visible patrolling and the percentage of time spent by police officers on operational duty in the areas identified as priorities by
local communities and National Intelligence Model (NIM) analysis to support local policing and improve public confidence
1.3
NYPs Requirements
Supplier Response
a) How does your solution identify how resources and assets
(officers staff and vehicles) have been deployed relative to a given
location target?
b) Detail how your solution provides a range of telematics
information from a vehicle to include but not exclusively, speed,

Demonstrate how deployments could be linked to STORM
incidents so it is identifiable which resources went to which
incident
Details how your solution allows Supervisors / Controllers to see
the location of all deployable resources and assets across the force
in real time
Through geo-fencing or other similar technology detail how you
are able to identify the number of assets that have visited that
locality and incident location and the duration of their visit
Detail how your solution can Identify the location of any number
of assets in real-time or at a given historic time (or period)
Provide details of how your solution can identify a vehicle driver
and occupants quickly and easily, so for example system checks
can be made to ensure the driver is qualified for the vehicle type
they are driving, if this is not the case their supervisor can be
notified
Provide details of how your solution has the ability to replay, snail
trail, screen capture of archive plays
One requirement that would be very useful for the service to
achieve, would be to have visibility of neighbouring Police Service

Tasking and Briefing - This section represents 8% of the total score
2.1
Current Processes
NYP have a number of different methods of delivering briefings and tasking across the organisation including:  Sgt delivers briefing to team either on site or over the phone.
 Officers self brief by reviewing incidents and intelligence that have occurred recently
 Force briefing manager application captures items to be briefed out
 Taskings can come through briefings, from the FCR, from the tasking team, or from supervision during the shift
 NYP operates its tasking processes in line with NIM, including holding a Daily Management Meeting (DMM), and TTCG. The service has also
recently introduced the THRIVE (Threat, Harm, Risk, Investigate , Vulnerability, Engagement) initiative using this risk assess, prioritise and
determine most appropriate response to calls
 On attendance at a tasking, Officers are expected to complete a number of tasking return forms and this may involve completing 3or4
forms for the same tasking based on current local initiatives
2.2
Expected Benefits
Tasking and Briefing is a key area of functionality for NYP, we are therefore particularly interested in how you have delivered MAUDS
functionality, that assists in this process, into other organisations. Please provide details of up to 3 examples of how you have delivered
benefits through your contribution to a tasking and briefing process in other organisations. The following are what NYP expect to achieve from
improved tasking and briefing processes: A more consistent and informative briefing process leading to better informed and therefore more effective officers
 Be able to review effectiveness and attendance at tasked location targets with a view to being able to modify patrol strategy as required
 Increases in the amount of visible patrolling taking place
 Improved quality of deployments through enhanced intelligence packages
 Integration with tasking processes – introduction of an element of dynamic tasking based on previous history (such as an officer is notified
they are entering an ASB hot spot, and they may want to patrol there for longer, or on a specific street location)
 Improved and more targeted briefing processes giving officers the information when and where they need it, this to be coupled with NYP’s
mobile data solution once this is established (expected summer 2015)
 Reduced time for officers completing tasking returns – expectation that this could be automated or simplified based on the officers

attendance at a location
2.3
NYPs Requirements
Supplier Response
a) Provide details of how the system has the ability to notify officers
via their mobile device or an in-car system that they are entering a
target location (e,g, ASB hot spot), or a tasking exists for that
vicinity
b) Provide details of how your solution would support the utilisation
of a tasking list which contains items such as curfew checks,
reassurance visits etc.
c) If the functionality is available detail how officers can accept/reject
a tasking and this is recorded on the tracking system. If accepted a
method of tracking is then initiated, if rejected the task is assigned
to another suitable resource
d) If functionality is available detail how your MAUDS solution
supports an officer who has accepted a task and is then given
supporting information appropriate to that location / task through
their mobile device
e) Provide details of how your solution allows the creation of geofences that identify target locations. Demonstrate how these can
be created simply, easily and independently by such as supervisors
f) Explain how your solution can contribute to a service briefing
system by identifying such as what activity had already taken place
for a given tasking/location

Integration with Existing NYP Systems - This section represents 5% of the total score
3.1
Current Processes
NYP uses STORM for their Command and Control processes, this is integrated with Northgate XC for mapping functionality (XD is also used for
more specialist mapping GIS functionality and XI for wider force mapping requirements)
Niche is used for incident / crime recording
APD is used for the location pings via the Airwave TETRA radios and APD INCA for the vehicle location.
Tetra Gateways integrate the location information onto the XC Mapping and Storm Command and Control, and clear tone for in-car video.
Tranman is used for fleet management activities
The service is currently implementing a new HR system called Origin
The Tetra Gateway provides:
1) the vehicle call sign identification for the cortex radio software for dispatchers
2) the table which reference the existing radio issi number and call sign which then cross reference the call sign table within storm to populate
the storm resource list
3) there are a number of vehicles that report e.g. pool vehicles that are not on our storm resource list. This is reliant on the driver switching the
radio on – process should be automated.
3.2
Expected Benefits
 NYP expects any MAUDS solution will integrate with other systems as required, with minimal disruption and integration costs
 Minimal re-training requirements
 The MAUDS data set is able to be viewed alongside other NYP data sets to inform the ‘big data’ picture for the service and provide
enhanced organisational intelligence
3.3
NYPs Requirements
Supplier Response
a) NYP uses IBM’s ibase system for Intelligence analysis, and
brings together data from a number of NYP systems to provide
a rich picture of linked activity, it is anticipated that the data
generated from a MAUDS system can add significantly to this

picture – the ability to make this data available for use by ibase
is a requirement of the system. If applicable provide details of
how your solution has been used in other organisations to
inform a bigger picture and how this has been used to support
and enhance analysis processes.
The solution must incorporate a GIS/ mapping system which
covers the complete geographic area of the service area at a
range of scales from 1:250,000 to ‘house level’ (1:1250 for
urban and 1:2500 for rural areas) and includes aerial
photography. Suppliers must provide details of the GIS
mapping system that they propose to use with their MAUDS
solution specifying the layers/scales that it renders, associated
level of detail e.g street names etc. and the method of
‘zooming’ between scales. The solution must not rely on using
publicly available mapping on the World Wide Web. Provide
details of how your solution meets this requirement.
All relevant supplied equipment must be compatible within the
One Box standard. Provide details of the equipment that you
propose to provide and how it meets this standard.
NYP already have a virtualised Microsoft and Linux server
environment running under VMWare vSphere and are moving
to Virtualised windows desktop environment running under
VMWare, Mirage and View. All deployed technology should be
compatible with this and be able to operate in a virtualised
environment. Detail how your solution will operate in this
environment and provide examples of how this has been done

an officer’ on the storm resource list when they are away from the
vehicle (so when leave vehicle for foot pursuit) so they can be
tracked on the mapping, without the dispatcher having to remove
them from the call sign – detail how this can be achieved in your
system.
w) Detail how your system interacts and uses call sign information
x) Provide details of how much data your solution will cache if out of
bearer and how and when this data will be sent back in
y) Provide details of how black box technology can be managed
remotely and data extracted, including log dumps being requested
remotely
z) Provide details of how you currently provide support for
customers of your MAUDS solution. Please note that any remote
access by third parties for support and upgrades must be in
accordance with our remote access policies and procedures, and in
line with any PSNP requirements. Details of these can be provided
at a later stage if required.
aa) Detail how telematics data is transmitted, over which networks
and any priority associated with these. What networks are used
(e.g. 2g, 3g/4g, Tetra Airwave……..)
bb) In line with best practice there is a requirement for an annual
inspection/check of vehicle data recording devices. Confirm how
this would be factored into any maintenance plans you would
propose.

Command and Control / FCRXN (NYP Force Control Room) Requirements - This section represents 3% of the total
score
9.1
Current Processes
NYP currently receive live resource location information from both the force deployable vehicles and police officers and staff which are
mapped directly onto our XC mapping system.
The current system receives information from the HR system to indicate if a resource is from a deployable department or not.
Supervisors manually provide FCR with details of who is on duty, after ringing round teams to see who has turned in.
9.2
Expected Benefits
 Minimise training requirements
 Effective integration with existing technologies
 Reduce administration and support required to the system to a minimum
 FCR are notified automatically who is on duty via an automated link between the duties and Command and Control system reducing the
administrative burden on Sgts and FCR staff
9.3
NYPs Requirements
Supplier Response
a) Detail how your solution supports the ability to filter the types of
resources that are displayed on the mapping application e.g. Dogs,
Firearms, Deployable, Non-deployable etc.
b) Detail how your solution can identify who is on duty and how this
information is integrated with existing systems, including the
duties/HR system (Origin) and STORM
c) Provide details of how resources are linked to vehicles and how
this information is integrated with the Storm C&C system

10.2 Expected Benefits
 Successful delivery of a MAUDS solution into NYP
 Based on the information provided suppliers are required to provide a benefits profile and approach of how and what NYP could
potentially achieve through cashable and operational efficiencies were you to be the successful system provider. This may take the form of
examples of savings and benefits achieved in other police/ similar organisations but based on NYP’s resource and vehicle numbers.
10.3 NYPs Requirements
Supplier Response
a) Detail how you would manage an implementation with NYP and
what resources would you allocate to the project , what resources
would you expect NYP to provide. For information NYP manage
projects following the Prince 2 methodology.
b) Do you have, or would you develop a detailed plan of activities
based on your experience of other implementations. Provision of a
detailed implementation and transition plan will be a requirement
to work with NYP
c) Provide details of how you would assist NYP in delivering the
benefits the project aims to achieve.
d) Detail your expected time scales for an implementation in NYP,
and provide a plan is MS Project or other preferred format based
on the requirements detailed in this document
e) Detail how you would achieve a skills transfer to NYP staff, in being
