Market Sounding Consultation Exercise for Data and Insights Platform
Huntingdonshire District Council (HDC) is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified suppliers for the future provision of a Hosted Platform for Data and Insights.
This is a market engagement exercise, not an invitation to submit tenders or quotations.
We are undertaking a market engagement to understand what the market can offer and what innovation providers can offer HDC.
The market engagement will also help us to refine the service specification before going out either to tender.
The objective of this market engagement exercise is to understand, through a Business Case proposal, the approaches and potential costs of implementing an appropriately designed and configured Data Platform (Data Lake, or Data Lakehouse), utilising pre-built Insights and Predictive Analytics capabilities, as used within other Local Government customers, within twelve months.
