Notice Information

Notice Title

Agile Professional Services to support the Deployment of Axon and EDC

Notice Description

DWP is seeking to future proof it's architecture and capability through the deployment of a Business Glossary and Data Catalogue. This will allow the department to make better use its data, its lineage and identify opportunities for efficiencies and risk reduction. Governance processes around technology selection and design have already been carried out and the next step is to move to deploy the infrastructure, tooling (Axon & EDC) and work with the key stakeholders on business processes, adoption and an operating model. The initiative will deliver iteratively, evolving over time - however the initial focus is on laying down foundational framework, services and capability for the Data & Analytics division within DWP. During this exercise, DWP would like to understand how the framework can be extended beyond the bounds of D&A providing value to other areas of DWP.
