Two EU-funded projects – iProcureSecurity PCP and PREVENT PCP – have joined forces to organise a meeting to explore the PCP realm. Innovation procurement has proven to be an effective tool, enabling end-users to continuously enhance their capabilities through innovative solutions in real operational settings. This event is a unique opportunity to gather knowledge on innovation procurement processes, with a focus on the lessons learned by the procurers and contractors who participated in two PCPs. The sessions aim to present successful practices and examples of innovation procurement in the security and disaster resilience domain, emphasising the challenges and opportunities faced by both suppliers and buyers.
The event will highlight the importance of innovation procurement in the security and disaster resilience sectors, bringing together the first-hand experiences of procurers, showcasing the solutions developed by the two projects, and discussing practical ways forward for the exploitation and operationalisation of the innovative products across the Member States.
Participants will have the opportunity to explore innovative solutions and engage in discussions on the future of Emergency Medical Services (EMS), mass casualty management, and security matters, including aspects of public transport safety, which is the central topic for PREVENT PCP. This event promises to be an invaluable occasion for numerous stakeholders, whether they are involved in emergency medical services and security or want to enhance their understanding and application of PCP processes and the cutting-edge solutions that have emerged from them.
This meeting is tailored for a diverse audience, including but not limited to EMS organisations, firefighters, law enforcement agencies, public transport operators, security practitioners, policymakers, and innovation procurement experts.
