## Summary

The NHS Digital is seeking to engage suppliers for the 'National Data Architecture (NDA) - Data Governance' project, which focuses on utilising Collibra's software for advancing Beta stage activities. This procurement is categorised under 'Content or data standardisation and classification services' and involves a single tender action due to prior unsuccessful procurement attempts. The tender was active until 29 June 2018 with a subsequent contract period from 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2019, with a total value of £399,730. The initiative is based in Leeds, England, highlighting a crucial investment in data governance and management.

This opportunity is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in data management, software solutions, or policy management tools. As NHS Digital continues to enhance its data collaboration capabilities, businesses that can demonstrate innovation and efficiency in these areas may find significant opportunities for engagement and growth in the public sector.

## Notice

This requirement is for the ability to use Collibra's software to allow the NDA programme to progress with Beta stage work. The software is a policy creation, management and collaboration tool in the data collaboration space, and offers a sophisticated policy management capability. NHS Digital utilise Collibra to provide a single platform for collaboration and integration with LHCREs. The product suite has many tools that enable or promote collaboration including a full-fledged data catalogue, a business glossary, a ticketing system, and an application for managing data stewards and their relationships, as well as the policy management itself. The justification, for a single tender action, is that a contract could not be awarded following a procurement in 2017 and that a proof of concept in early 2018 demonstrated that further exploratory work should be conducted before a full requirement can be drafted, allowing for a competitive procurement to be conducted. This Tooling product has unique technical attributes to enable Beta work to be conducted. A Prior Information Notice was published in December 2018 (PIN ref: 2018/S 239-545971) to allow this requirement to be openly competed for any future contract award.
