Notice Title

Single Tender Action - Chorus Renewal - Home Office

Notice Description

Renewal of the Authority's annual Chorus Licence. More details about Chorus is available on the Supplier's website at: https://chorusintel.com/ The website further reads: Chorus Intelligence is at the forefront of new technology that enables and empowers analysts and investigators. The Chorus platform takes disparate data types and streamlines them to allow fast, powerful and in-depth analysis at the click of a button. Agencies are dealing with millions of individuals call data records, handset downloads, Automatic Number Plate Recognition, IP traffic, financial transactions, web chat, attribution and other data types in a single operation. The volume in today's digital landscape means that practitioners struggle to find the time to explore, investigate and resolve the full extent of the opportunities that exist. Chorus eliminates the time spent unnecessarily formatting and preparing data to allow the practitioners to see the big picture and get straight to the answer. The Supplier has confirmed they will only sell directly to end users and won't provide pricing via re-sellers. This removes the opportunity of running a competition.
