Projects' results are expected to contribute to some or all of the following outcomes:
- An identifiable community of EU civil security authorities with common user/functional needs for innovative technology solutions;
- Tested and validated capacity of EU technology and industrial base to develop and produce technology prototypes that meet the needs of the EU user community;
- Improved delineation of the EU market (including demand and supply) for innovative civil security systems that can articulate alternative options for uptake in function of different industrialisation needs, commercialisation needs, acquisition needs, deployment needs and additional funding needs (beyond R&I funding).
End-users and public procurers from several countries are invited to send proposals for launching a Pre-Commercial Procurement action for the acquisition of R&D services for the development of innovative civil security technology solutions.
The proposals should build on the outcomes of CSA projects funded under previous work programmes aimed at creating Stronger grounds for pre-commercial procurement of innovative security technologies [for example, topic HORIZON-CL3-2022-SSRI-01-03: Stronger grounds for pre-commercial procurement of innovative security technologies.]. The successful proposals could therefore give continuity to the works initiated by those CSA projects.
The proposals are expected to provide clear evidence on a number of aspects in order to justify and de-risk the
