The NOC has engaged with the preferred provider patent attorney, Barker Brettel (See Letter of Support). The NOC will work with the attorney to draft the patent. This will require the developers of the MAPS technology (Dr Julie Robidart) and the NOC enterprise (Dr Paul Wilkinson) to provide instructions to Barker Brettel through phone calls as face-to-face meeting, review of the patent draft and finalisation of the filing. The NOC will produce a research brief that details a market assessment. This will focus on the applications of the MAPS system to aquaculture and environmental monitoring markets. It will provide information on:1. End-users in these markets2. Providers of microbiology sensing technologies to these markets3. The size of the market; the monetary value of sensors and services provided into these markets. The NOC will tender three research proposals from expert market research companies. The NOC will evaluate these proposals for their suitability of the proposed research method (e.g. desk based, phone interview), ability to meet the research brief, and value for money. The NOC is in discussions with PWC, DJS and Frazer Nash as potential providers of this market assessment. If successful, this proposed market assessment with will be grouped with other successful applications to leverage economies of scale and secure the best value for money. Once the patent is filed, the NOC will work with the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS), Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH), and the Environment Agency (EA), in addition to any stakeholder or end user identified by the market analysis, to further understand their technology requirements and the potential market for MAPS application for routine environmental monitoring.

NOC已与首选提供商专利律师Barker Brettel进行了接洽（见支持信）。NOC将与律师合作起草专利。这将要求MAPS技术的开发人员（Julie Robidart博士）和NOC企业（Paul威尔金森博士）通过电话向Barker Brettel提供指示，如面对面会议，审查专利草案和完成备案。国家奥委会将编制一份研究简报，详细介绍市场评估。这将侧重于MAPS系统在水产养殖和环境监测市场的应用。它将提供以下方面的信息：1.这些市场的最终用户2。为这些市场提供微生物传感技术3。市场的规模;传感器的货币价值和提供给这些市场的服务。国家奥委会将向专家市场研究公司提交三份研究提案。国家奥委会将评估这些提案是否适合所提议的研究方法（例如，案头研究、电话访谈）、是否符合研究概要以及是否物有所值。国家奥委会正在与普华永道、DJS和弗雷泽纳什讨论这一市场评估的潜在提供者。如果成功，这项拟议的市场评估将与其他成功的应用程序分组，以利用规模经济并确保最佳性价比。一旦申请专利，NOC将与环境，渔业和水产科学中心（CEFAS），生态与水文中心（CEH）和环境局（EA）以及市场分析确定的任何利益相关者或最终用户合作，以进一步了解他们的技术要求和MAPS应用于常规环境监测的潜在市场。
