Notice Information

Notice Title

100-0323T Arable Data Integrator System

Notice Description

AEC is seeking a system to enable integration of data from various arable related data sources. A function of AEC is to collect data from a wide variety of sensors, Farm Management Information Systems (FMIS) and other sources spread throughout a national network of associated farms. This data is then used for research and development of agricultural technology, as a source of data for design, implementation, and testing. The collection and storage are currently achieved manually and is subject to data loss, slow data collection and poor quality. The intention of AEC is to automate this ETL process and then to expand upon the capabilities that provides. The arable data integrator we are looking for will create a single access point for AEC to access data from its farm network, whilst also providing that farm network with the data analytics and information creation necessary to support farming decision making. ITT documents can be obtained via the following e-tendering portal:- https://ne1procurementservices.com/content/live_tenders.php Additional information: Queries/Clarification Questions No Bidder is permitted to contact any Authority staff member whatsoever, during this procurement exercise, as to do so will render any Bid from a Bidder whom contravenes this instruction to automatically exclude themselves from the ITT opportunity at the discretion of the Authority.
