OFFICIAL JSARC-run consultation with suppliers and airports/airlines on the barriers to innovation Key Asks: Barriers to Innovation OFFICIAL More early-stage development “Support Industry with the development of low --> medium TRL solutions (through funding or access to key stakeholders)” Testing and Trials “Provide an accessible test environment to allow new equipment to be trialled, with the results from these to be shared across the End User community” Data “Facilitate better exploitation of available data across industry, airports and end users” Communication “Support collaboration and communication across the sector to ensure shared understanding”
- 13. OFFICIAL • Phase 2 of “Future of Aviation Security” competition: commitment of £2m of funding in Jan (only open to phase 1 suppliers) • This competition on finding explosives in electronic items (£3m) now open: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accel erator-competition-finding-explosives-hidden-in- electrical-items Early Stage Development (1/2) Further £5m of innovation funding being committed
- 14. OFFICIAL Early Stage Development (2/2) Got a proposal that doesn’t fit the current themed call? No problem! Use the Open Call for Innovation to submit proposals within the FASS scope at any time: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications /defence-and-security-accelerator-enduring- challenge/accelerator-enduring-challenge Expecting to launch further themed competitions next Financial Year
- 15. OFFICIAL Develop – likely with the assistance of JSARC and Defence and Security Accelerator – a process to match suppliers who have a solution they want to trial, with airports or other spaces that want to trial them. Will include opportunity to bid for Government resource to support trials Support those companies that we’re funding to access explosives/simulant testing facilities, either privately or Government owned. Testing and Trials to provide an accessible test environment to allow new equipment to be trialled, with the results from these to be shared across the End User community
- 16. OFFICIAL Testing and Trials Host new interactions between industries, develop a forward-looking matching process, engage parts of government to support trials through additional funding, technical expertise, trials management etc. Support access to live/simulant materials Lab testing opportunities (eg track 2 of this competition) A process to access ‘representative’ and ‘operational’ trial opportunities Benefits: • Provide feedback to developers on their solution early in the cycle, improving the product • Get early buy-in from airports/airlines to upcoming technologies, building their trust in the product • Develop routes to market that are long term and sustainable for developers • Develop routes to sharing accurate performance and detection data with end-users More to come in the new year!
- 17. OFFICIAL Data Sharing and Communication “Facilitate better exploitation of available data across industry, airports and end users” “Support collaboration and communication across the sector to ensure shared understanding” • Support better, sustained, open engagement between the main stakeholders; establish multi-directional communication channels to share knowledge, best practice and routes to market • Initial focus on access to physical test items and X-Ray image sets to support machine learning algorithm development • But broader aspiration to ensure that data collected as we undertake research and testing and trials is shared as broadly as is possible within commercial constraints to the benefit of all Speak to airport/airline representatives here today to get their context on the problem!

- 19. OFFICIAL Coffee break and networking 11:00 to 11:30
- 20. OFFICIAL Future Aviation Security Solutions Competition briefing: “Finding explosives hidden in electrical items”
- 21. OFFICIAL Agenda • Competition overview (Tim Cook); • A policy and science and technology perspective (James MacDonald); • An airport perspective (Andy Price); • How the competition will work (Emma Howe); • Questions for the panel
- 22. OFFICIAL Competition Overview Two possible Challenges Two possible Tracks Challenge 1: central security screening • Could compliment existing X-Ray or EDSCB technology towards reaching highest standards (electronics in bag); • Could support alarm resolution (potentially out of bag electronics); • Could be a completely novel solution Challenge 2: portable screening • at security points other than central search; • an alternative to current measures (not an addition); Track 1: low TRL entry (up to TRL 4) • Phase 1: • TRL 2-4; • 6 months; • £40-80k / project; • £1m total. • Phase 2: • TRL 4-6; • 12 months; • £200k+ / project; • £1.5m total. Track 2: higher TRL entry (TRL 6 or higher) • Single Phase; • 4 months of experimental development; • Trial in July; • £50k-£100k anticipated. For both challenges, we’re not just looking for solutions to detect concealed explosive devices/components. We’d also be interested in solutions to identify electrical items that may have been tampered with, or which appear to be out of the ordinary.
- 23. OFFICIAL Track timeline TRL 4 TRL 6 TRL 6+
- 24. OFFICIAL Key points Current screening technology needs to meet a regulated standard but for this competition we’re open to innovative approaches which may not fall within current regulatory frameworks. In your proposal, you should consider the integration of any proposed solution into the working practises of potential users (for example security officers) and potential location, by explaining your proposed concept of use, any size implications, and any training requirements. we’re looking for ambitious and innovative proposals to help prevent the widest possible range of explosives devices/components hidden in electrical items being taken on to an aircraft in passenger hand luggage We’re interested in projects that consider a systems approach, including the potential to integrate with other existing technologies. Where possible you should use open systems architecture to maximise the potential for integration with current or other new systems.
- 25. OFFICIAL Exploitation it’s important that you clearly describe your exploitation path and provide evidence to demonstrate how your technology will deliver a step-change in aviation security This competition will take advantage of the Accelerator Innovation Partner and FASS programme to stimulate contact between bidders and other parties to aid the exploitation of the successful outputs of the projects funded. Any such discussions between will be entirely at your own commercial judgement Successful technologies might also be exploited in other areas of detection and the screening process (such as the identification of concealed Chemical, Biological or Radiological (CBR) threat material and/or screening of electrical items within hold baggage and cargo).
- 26. OFFICIAL If you have a proposal that doesn’t fit into the scope of this competition, please consider the Accelerator Open Call for Innovation as a potential route for funding Proposals will be assessed by subject matter experts from the HO, DfT, Dstl, other government departments, international government partners and representatives from airlines and airports who will be under the appropriate confidentiality agreements. Technical queries about this competition should be sent to: FASS@dft.gsi.gov.uk and copied to accelerator@dstl.gov.uk Other info For this competition we’re not interested in proposals for: •consultancy •paper-based studies or literature reviews •solutions that don’t offer significant benefit to security •projects that only offer a written report •projects that can’t demonstrate feasibility within the phase 1 timescale
