Set up to respond to the complex challenges of fragile and conflict afflicted states, it is a uniquely integrated civil-military operational unit, designed to be agile and responsive and well-equipped to operate in high threat environments. It combines in-house staff expertise with the ability to draw on a larger pool of civilian expertise for specialised, longer term or larger scale takings to work with countries on conflict, stabilisation and security issues. The Unit reports to the National Security Council and has a core staff from twelve government departments, police and three military services, many of whom join the unit on secondment on a two to three year basis. As part of the SU's unique role to deploy to FCAS states, the SU requires all personnel selected for deployment on behalf of Her Majesty's Government (HMG) to undertake specific pre-deployment training, currently for over 350 personnel a year. The appropriate selection, training and accreditation of suitable personnel is integral to the SU's ability to mitigate the foreseeable risks that its deployees may face in fragile and conflict affected environments around the world. A major piece of the SU's remit is its ability to deploy personnel both bilaterally to HMG platforms and to multilateral platforms with the EU, UN, and NATO in an agile and flexible manner. The UK's Stabilisation Unit (SU) is seeking partners to develop and manage a new training programme for deployees travelling and working in FCAS.
