Notice Description

This contract is due to commence 1st September 2023 and will run until June 2024.

Lot Information

Lot 1

We are seeking a supplier to facilitate LAs to agree and articulate the minimum core functionalities (MCF) that a Children's Social Care CMS (Case Management System) should have, based on multiple user needs. The supplier will map existing market products against the minimum core functionalities as well as survey the wider landscape of digital systems and products that consume and use children's social care data or interact with children's social care case management products, as well as the stakeholders who either have a role to play in shaping, or are impacted by, the development of children's social care systems and standards. The supplier will also appraise options for how open data and technical standards for Children's Social Care to support the movement of information across systems and agencies (in the mapped ecosystem) could be developed, governed, and implemented and maintained and finally develop and trial a set of 3-4 interoperability-oriented data and technical open standards for interoperability-oriented use cases prioritised by the user community - and located within the mapped ecosystem, and review the applicability of existing standards initiatives to CSC CMS.
