The proposed technologies shall endow Public Transport Operators with solutions enhancing security situational awareness through:
1. Timely automatic detection of potentially dangerous unattended items in Public Transport Infrastructure and in public areas in the vicinity;
PREVENT is a research & development (R&D) services procurement which is conducted through a Pre-Commercial-Procurement (PCP).
This PCP will be divided into three Phases. Each Phase will result in a competition between the Tenderers in such a way that the number of Tenderers shall decrease from one Phase to the next one to ensure selecting those that best address the technical challenge on which this PCP is based.
Tenderers that are awarded a Framework Agreement will also be awarded a specific Contract for Phase 1 (evaluation of tenders for the Framework Agreement and Phase 1 are combined). Tenderers are therefore asked not only to submit their detailed offer for Phase 1, but also to state their goals, and to outline their plans (including price conditions) for Phases 2 and 3.
Phase 1: Solution Design. Following the tendering stage, a Framework Agreement and a specific Contract for Phase 1 will be awarded to at least six (6) Contractors.
Phase 2: Solution Prototype. A Call-Off will be organised for Phase 2, with the aim of awarding at least four (4) Phase 2 Contracts. Only offers from Contractors that successfully completed Phase 1 will be eligible for Phase 2. The procurers will validate the Phase 2 prototypes in the lab of the Contractor and in 1 station of one PTO with around 50 cameras,.
Phase 3: Operational Validation. A second Call-Off will be organised for Phase 3, with the aim of awarding a minimum of two (2) Phase 3 Contracts. Only offers from Contractors that successfully completed phase 2 will be eligible for phase 3. The procurers will validate the phase 3 prototypes in the four pilots´ sites.
The information below refers to Phase 1 Specific Contract which defines the specific terms and conditions for the implementation of the PCP procurement of R&D services  for the  PCP phase 1. In particular, the Contractor shall provide the R&D services (tasks, deliverables and milestones) set out in the Request for Tenders (TD1) for this specific Phase 1 Solution design. The Contractor will design and submit for technical evaluation its individual views of the solution that meets PREVENT PCP requirements and functional specifications, and will verify the technical, economic and organizational feasibility of their solution approach to address the PCP challenge.
The works carried out will also encompass the definition of verification procedures for the evaluation of the performance of the defined solutions according to technical parameters, thus leading to an evaluation of the level of compliance of the solutions with respect to the specification from a technical standpoint.
Moreover, Contracts must be implemented in compliance with the following place of performance obligation:  100% of the R&D activities described in this Request for Tenders, the Framework Agreement and the Specific Phase Contracts must be located in EU Member States and/or in countries associated to Horizon 2020.
The principal R&D staff working on each specific contract must be located in the EU Member States and/or in countries associated to Horizon 2020. The percentage is calculated as the part of the total monetary value of the contract that is allocated to activities performed in the EU Member States and/or in other countries associated to Horizon 2020. All activities covered by the contract are included in the calculation (i.e. all R&D and operational activities that are needed to perform the R&D services, e.g. research, development, testing and certifying solutions). This includes all activities performed under the contract by contractors and, if applicable, their subcontractors.
