What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe Operational Support Unit (OSU) is nationally accredited to provide covert surveillance for HOIE Criminal & Financial Investigation (CFI), as well as to support Home Office and external law enforcement partners across the UK, working at all levels within the National Intelligence Model (NIM). OSU delivers foot, mobile, technical, covert rural (CROPs) and (soon-to-be) aerial surveillance capability.
