Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate. The procurement method is an open procedure below threshold, providing a chance for qualified businesses to contribute to the implementation of a metadata catalogue supporting the W3C DCAT standard and improving data access within the health and social care system. ## Notice This initiative is the building block to support the data discovery via metadata which is available across the system including the ICSs. The metadata catalogue will be an online cloud-based product where users could upload metadata and this metadata is available for other users to consume. This will enable users to utilise the data which is already available in the NHS for purposes of providing better clinical care, improving service, better care coordination and research. NHSE has created the experimental version of the Metadata catalogue and we now wish to support the implementation of the tool across the 3 Integrated Care System (ICS) footprint to enable system wide improved access to Metadata. The metadata catalogue must support the W3C DCAT standard. The Data Architecture commitments of the draft data strategy are that, a Chief Technology Officer, technical architect, commissioner, provider or standards lead, will: * develop the data orchestration layer and metadata catalogue which allows the data discovery and data flows supported by the APIs across the data sources in the health and social care system Please apply here https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5650b3e6-a73b-4967-a21b-dec7c1a82fba | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Sep 2022 | | Submission deadline | 4 Oct 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 23 Oct 2022 - 28 Feb 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS ENGLAND | | Locality | LEEDS | | Post town | Leeds | | Postcode | LS2 7UE | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE42 Leeds | | Local authority | Leeds | | Electoral ward | Little London & Woodhouse | | Westminster constituency | Leeds Central and Headingley | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 48613000 - Electronic data management (EDM) - 72000000 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ## Release History - 20 Sep 2022 at 10:42 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5650b3e6-a73b-4967-a21b-dec7c1a82fba ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5650b3e6-a73b-4967-a21b-dec7c1a82fba 20th September 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3bef572b-4795-419c-a49a-e1cb010b43f6 ITQ re Metadata Catalogue Professional Services - FINAL ## Notice URLs - https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
