@datatagid ID RAPID Shortlisted for British Security Awards 2026👇

Datatag has confirmed it has been shortlisted as a finalist in the Technology Project of the Year category at the British Security Awards 2026 for RAPID, its technology platform designed to help police officers identify stolen and suspect assets.

RAPID brings key information together in one place, helping officers quickly check plant, agricultural machinery, motorcycles, scooters, and trailers at the roadside, on site, or during wider enforcement activity.

The system draws data from the CESAR database, PNC/LEDS, and other Datatag databases, providing police with vital information in a practical, easy-to-use format. Assets must be Datatag- or CESAR-marked, helping officers confirm identity, check status, and take appropriate action when theft or suspicious activity is identified.

Datatag says RAPID was developed by its technical team, led by Lead Developer Adam Plaskitt, with Police Liaison Officer Vince Lane bringing frontline policing experience to help make it a practical tool for officers.

The result is a platform that already supports faster recovery of stolen equipment, acts as a deterrent to organised crime, and helps reduce costly downtime for contractors, hire companies, and equipment owners.

Kevin Howells, Managing Director of Datatag, said: “We are delighted that RAPID has been shortlisted at the British Security Awards 2026. Theft remains a serious issue across a wide range of sectors, from construction and agriculture to motorcycles, scooters and trailers, and RAPID was developed to give police officers the information they need in one place.

“By drawing together data from CESAR, PNC/LEDS and Datatag’s own databases, RAPID helps officers make quicker, more informed checks on Datatag and CESAR Scheme-marked assets. To be recognised in the Technology Project of the Year category is a real credit to the Datatag team, including Adam Plaskitt, who led the technical development, and Vince Lane, whose policing experience helped shape RAPID into a practical tool for frontline use.”
