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 合作（参见支持信）。国家奥委会将与律师合作起草专利。这将需要 MAPS 技术的开发者（Julie Robidart 博士）和 NOC 企业（Paul Wilkinson 博士）通过电话、面对面会议、审查专利草案和最终确定申请等方式向 Barker Brettel 提供指示。国家奥委会将制作一份研究简报，详细介绍市场评估。重点关注 MAPS 系统在水产养殖和环境监测市场的应用。它将提供以下信息：1。这些市场的最终用户2。这些市场的微生物传感技术提供商3。市场规模；向这些市场提供的传感器和服务的货币价值。国家奥委会将招标来自专家市场研究公司的三项研究提案。 NOC 将评估这些提案是否适合所提议的研究方法（例如基于案头、电话访谈）、满足研究概要的能力以及资金价值。 NOC 正在与 PWC、DJS 和 Frazer Nash 作为该市场评估的潜在提供者进行讨论。如果成功，这项拟议的市场评估将与其他成功的应用程序结合起来，以利用规模经济并确保最佳性价比。专利提交后，除了已确定的任何利益相关者或最终用户外，NOC 将与环境、渔业和水产养殖科学中心 (CEFAS)、生态与水文中心 (CEH) 和环境局 (EA) 合作通过市场分析，进一步了解其日常环境监测MAPS应用的技术需求和潜在市场。
