This focus group is one in a series of personal protective equipment (PPE) related user focus groups for members of the law enforcement community. Its purpose was to collect data/criteria for operational requirements, personal protective equipment (PPE) trends and concepts of operations (CONOPS) from representatives in law enforcement. Program participants represented a cross section of the country's law enforcement community, serving in different agencies, departments, and job functions. The focus group topics were as follows: Duty Uniforms, Integrated Head Protection, Chemical/Biological Protection, and Human Systems Integration. Data collected through this focus group will be used with on-going research and analysis to support a number of LEAP-related activities, including developing performance criteria for law enforcement specific PPE standards.
