Project status

The project is finalized.

The main project output - CBRNe mobile units for the Romanian and Bulgarian special intervention teams - was procured via a single procurement procedure organized by the LB. The CBRNe equipment was delivered, installed and commissioned at the General Inspectorate of Romanian Police (B2) and the BG Ministry of Interior (B3) and the staff was trained in operation of the equipment in May 2018. A laboratory, composed of Particle Size Analyzer and Supply of XRF Spectrometer was also purchased by the LB.
