These are powered by various data sources (e.g. industry standards, proprietary sources and bespoke generated data), which is currently ingested and processed by an external provider on our behalf. The BBC provides some of the data sets, but the provider also sources and processes others for the BBC. The BBC are currently reviewing the current and future provision of this service and anticipates launching a procurement opportunity in the near future.
