## Summary

The UK Shared Business Services Limited is inviting tenders for the project titled "UK SBS IT16169 Health Life Sciences Annual Update 2016," focusing on services within the health life sciences sector. Located in London, the tender was published on 22nd August 2016 and was active until the deadline of 14th September 2016. The procurement method was an open procedure below threshold, with the contract commencing on 1st October 2016 and concluding on 31st March 2017. The total value of the awarded contract is £64,094, and it is currently active, with CELS Business Services Limited as the supplier.

This contracting opportunity presents substantial prospects for businesses involved in data collection, validation, and analysis within the health life sciences sector.

Engaging in this project could enhance a business's portfolio in the rapidly evolving digital health and genomics arenas, positioning it advantageously within the public procurement landscape.

## Notice

Project scope * Update with 2016 Company data This part of the project will involve collecting data on UK health life science companies, validating the data for accuracy, and analysing and segmenting the data according to agreed processes and categories, and updating the master spreadsheet / database. It is expected this will follow CBSL's (the current provider) previously agreed and used processes including matching with Dun & Bradstreet & FAME data to provide turnover and employment. In 2015 we started using a new matching process identified by CBSL to deliver more accurate data and CBSL will provide a narrative to describe the new process for future use. Dun & Bradstreet and FAME contracts are the responsibility of OLS. * Digital Health & Genomics data To deliver OLS policy priorities on digital health and genomics we require updated data on UK companies working in these sectors and technologies. The contract will include a specific piece of work on digital health companies to review, analyse and validate a list of companies (approx. 200) that OLS has collected that are not currently in the Health Life Sciences database; and to review companies already in the database that may also engage in digital health activities that are not captured in our data. * Annual Strength & Opportunity Report As in past years, OLS will publish an annual report on the size and shape of the UK life sciences sector. This part of the project will require production of the annual Strength and Opportunity report including preparing infographics, narrative, tables and charts on the state of the UK life sciences sector, and a publicly disclosable cut of the underlying data in an Excel spreadsheet, in discussion with OLS, for publication on the BIS website www.gov.uk/government/publications/bioscience-and-health-technology-database-annual-report-2015. * UK Life Sciences website The UK Life Sciences website www.lifesciences.ukti.gov.uk/ is the public facing portal allowing users to search for companies by sector, segment and region. The website will need to continue to be hosted to existing security levels and remain available to the public on an appropriate web server. The website will need to be updated with the 2016 data including appropriate adjustments for data held under licence that cannot be disclosed, for example, turnover & employment, which must be banded for the website. Throughout the duration of the contract the website will need to be updated to add or amend individual companies and associated information, in line with existing protocols and in agreement with OLS. * Tableau workbook OLS uses Tableau to deliver a user-friendly tool to interrogate the company data and generate standard reports and visualisations. This will need to be updated with the 2016 data which maintains all the existing agreed visualisations. OLS may require new visualisations in discussion with the provider. Hosting Tableau is the responsibility of OLS.
