## Description
The Contracting Authority (the "Authority") is the Home Office acting through Border Force. Border Force is a professional law enforcement command within the Home Office. It is responsible for securing the UK border and controlling immigration at ports and airports across the UK and Northern France.
The Border Force Detection Technology Management Unit (DTMU) is a national team based in Border Force South East & Europe and is charged with the procurement and maintenance of clandestine detection technology and ancillary equipment used by Border Force, authorities and contractors within designated control zones. To augment the screening process officers are issued with Carbon Dioxide gas analysers to screen Roll on Roll off (Ro-Ro) freight (wheeled cargo, i.e. HGV trailers) and containers. The technology is designed to quickly and efficiently check for the presence of illegal migrants by using a range of ancillaries to gain access into the area to be sampled. The most common ancillary is an adapted ski pole connected to a gas analyser which samples the air inside of soft-sided HGVs, other ancillaries and insertion methods are acceptable if functional. The gas analyser is not used as a personal safety device for Border Force officers. The gas analyser is used solely to provide an indication of a human presence inside a soft sided trailer.
