Description

College of Policing (COP) needs the supplier to run a 5-to-7-month innovation accelerator, including a 1-2-month start-up phase. The overarching aim of the accelerator is to enable cross-sector collaboration and explore the feasibility of solutions aimed at prevention knife crime. The Accelerator can be run in between 1 to 5 different locations across England and Wales. The College is open to suggestion to the feasibility of running the accelerator in multiple sites simultaneously and what the optimal number of locations would be given the timeframe and resources available. Successful delivery of activities set out in the above section will depend on: • Working closely with the Behavioural Science team and researchers to ensure the accelerator methodology meets COP's expectations for evidence-based solution design incorporating behavioural science and problem-solving approaches. • Weekly meetings with the core team at COP. • Co-development and co-facilitation of accelerator events. • Strong partnership working with wider national partners.
