Lot 1: Framework agreement for forensic software program for computers

Kort beskrivelse

The Danish National Police requests a tender for forensic software programs for computers for the Danish Police.
This lot contains the request for one of three parallel forensic software programs (Lot 1-3) to support tasks related to acquire and analyse data from computers with Windows operating system. The contracting authority requires one software program for this lot. The main services for this lot are listed below.

1) Software:
The Software must support tasks related to the use of digital traces from computers, including the possibility of conducting:
•Data acquisition,
•Data processing,
•Data analysis, and
•Data presentation and export.

2) Services:
The Services cover training in offered Software, which includes course of 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 programs are used to interpret the same data set. The contracting authority has seen examples of two different software programs having similar interpretation issues on the same data artifacts, which results in the need for a third software program. To ensure at least three different software programs for computer forensics, which can – as a minimum - acquire and analyse data from computers with Windows operating system the contracting authority has divided the Agreement into three lots for this specific purpose. In Appendix 6 it is stated in which cases the contracting authority can use the individual lots.
