The solution delivered will allow for inter-operability with WFRS & NFRS. The inter-operable solution will provide separate instances for each services with access to each others. If either service terminates its agreement with the Supplier, the remaining service should not be able to access the separate data of the departing customer.
For both WFRS and NFRS the systems need to be fully live by the end of 2022, preferably with the ICCS element going live first (if this is possible).
