Lot Information

Lot 1

Three-year contract for the collection, anonymisation and amalgamation of race by race turnover and gross win betting data for all races taking place in Great Britain, for provision (at race by race level) to the Horserace Betting Levy Board and participating bookmakers. The successful bidder must be able to demonstrate, based on relevant previous experience, the ability and resource capacity to source and then accurately, securely and quickly process around one million items of commercially sensitive data per annum, comprising twelve monthly data feeds. The data will be provided by a number of separate betting operators: thus, the successful bidder must also be able to prove the ability to deal with multiple sources of input during a single process, as well as liaising successfully with multiple organisations; including, where needed, fast and accurate resolution of any data quality issues. Good relationship management with the participating betting operators, who provide the data voluntarily, will be essential. The data is commercially sensitive and will be used across a range of areas, making both data security and accuracy paramount; the successful bidder must thus also be able to demonstrate robust digital security, including secure methods of data transfer and data handling, and data quality assurance procedures. Given the confidential nature of the data being processed, the successful bidder will need to have demonstrated that it is Cyber Essentials Plus (or higher) qualified. Additionally, the successful bidder will need to operate, as an organisation, under non-disclosure agreements with both the Horserace Betting Levy Board and participating bookmakers. The collection of race by race data from betting operators, and the provision of that data in anonymised and amalgamated form to the Horserace Betting Levy Board, will occur monthly in the first instance, though more frequent data collection and provision may be needed by exception. The successful bidder will need to demonstrate the resource capacity to cope with this circumstance. The data supplied by betting operators will comprise, at a minimum, race identifiers; digital, retail and total betting turnover data; and digital, retail and total gross win data. This information will need to be amalgamated with a separate data set, provided by the Horserace Betting Levy Board, comprising further race by race details, including, but not limited to, race code, type and distance. Race by race betting data should be collected from the betting operators by the end of the third working day of each month. The Horserace Betting Levy Board will provide a partial racing data set to the successful bidder by the first working day of each month, to enable sense checking of the betting data, followed by a full racing data set, for amalgamation with the betting data, on or around the 8th of the month. The successful bidder would be expected to provide the full data set to the Horserace Betting Levy Board within three working days of receipt of the full racing data set. A high level of data quality is essential and the data supplied by the successful bidder to the Horserace Betting Levy Board, which will be shared onwards with participating betting operators, will be subject to review upon receipt. The Horserace Betting Levy Board may ask questions relating to the data supplied and, if necessary, request a review meeting. The successful bidder must be able to demonstrate robust data quality procedures, including strong internal verification processes and comparison of contemporary and historic trends when assessing the betting data prior to provision; and also the resource capacity to deal with any resulting questions. The duration of the contract is three years.

Options: The contract may be extended for an additional two years subject to agreement from both parties and participating bookmakers.

Renewal: The contract may be extended for an additional two years subject to agreement from both parties and participating bookmakers.
