Short description
Lot 2-4 contain three parallel lots (Lot 2, Lot 3 and Lot 4) for forensic software for computers that can acquire and analyse data from computers with Windows operating system. Lot 2, Lot 3 and Lot 4 are described as a whole as "Lot 2-4" in this contract notice, the electronic tendering system and the tender specification, because the three lots are identical. Please notice, that a tender for Lot 2-4 will be deemed to apply as an independent tender for each of the three lots, i.e. for Lot 2, Lot 3 and Lot 4 respectively.
Furthermore, the information set out in this section of II.2, i.e. this sections II.2.1), II.2.2), II.2.3), II.2.4), II.2.5), II.2.6), II.2.7), II.2.10), II.2.11), II.2.12), II.2.13) and II.2.14) applies for each of the three lots, i.e. Lot 2, Lot 3 and Lot4 respectively.
The main services for these lots are listed below.
A. Software:
The Software must be able to perform tasks related to forensics examinations of Windows computers, including the possibility of conducting:
- Data acquisition,
- Data processing,
- Data analysis,
- Data presentation and export.
B. Services:
The Services cover training in the offered Software, which includes core training for digital forensics specialists in data acquisition, data processing, data analysis and data presentation and export.
When working with digital forensics in law enforcement investigations it is important to qualify the results and the digital evidence via dual-tool-verification, which means that at least two different software solutions are used to interpret the same data set. The contracting authority has seen examples of two different software solutions having similar interpretation issues on the same data artifacts, which results in the need for a third software solution. To ensure at least three different software solutions for computer forensics, which can acquire and analyse data from computers with Windows operating system, the contracting authority has divided it into three lots for this specific purpose. In Appendix 6 it is stated in which cases the contracting authority can use the individual lots.
