        "description": "***PLEASE NOTE CLOSING DATE IS 20/07/2017 AT 14:00PM, PLEASE DO NOT APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE BUYER*** The Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) is one of Europe's largest research organisations. We're trusted to support, enable and undertake pioneering projects in an amazing diversity of fields. Our Scientific Computing Department (SCD) develops leading edge software, computer and data storage infrastructures to support the work of world class science both within STFC and internationally. The expertise of our staff is key to making our research happen. We work with the latest technologies to drive advances in both hardware and software that have genuine real world applications. Whether it is the search for the Higgs Boson and dark matter, analysing climate data or genomics, our systems tackle the biggest and most challenging problems in scientific computing. The UK Collaboratorium on Research in Infrastructure & Cities (UKCRIC - www.ukcric.com) has been established to enable the UK to develop a world class national infrastructure research capability to inform the UK's infrastructure development agenda. It is a PS137.6m capital investment committed within the government's Budget of March 2015. STFC is a delivery partner of the Data Analytics Facility for National Infrastructure (DAFNI), one of the three main strands of UKCRIC with an investment of PS8M. The aim of DAFNI is to provide new data intensive hardware and software infrastructure to enable significant new advances in infrastructure systems research. DAFNI is the first of its kind in the UK and globally, dedicating to complex infrastructure systems research using advanced computational techniques. The core of DAFNI will be located at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire with satellite capabilities at the Universities. The aim of the tender is to embed expertise into the STFC-DAFNI team to enable them to gain understanding of the current systems and processes in place such that this expertise can be handed over to the new DAFNI Technical Architect when recruited as part of a separate exercise. It is envisaged that this team will be embedded at STFC for the duration of the contract. This tender seeks responses to supply a team of individuals to be embedded at STFC for a 6 month project to assist in the technical design and implementation of DAFNI. Main Objectives: 1. A report detailing the current use of data and modelling resources 2. A new technical design to meet DAFNI's requirements 3.
