Why this procedure was chosen
NEC have been working extensively with DCP to provide specialist advice, expertise, software and associated services to support the implementation and operation of Live Facial Recognition (LFR) technology. NEC was originally selected as the supplier of LFR technology through the BLC framework, having demonstrated compliance with the published requirements and provided the necessary supporting information. NEC was the only supplier on the framework able to meet these requirements in full at the time. The alternative supplier on the framework was informed of the decision and provided with the rationale for NEC's selection.
