All tender information MUST be submitted through the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal. Brief Description of Requirement The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) leads work across government on data-related policy issues. We are seeking market intelligence on companies that possess bulk data and their ultimate beneficial owners. The purpose of this procurement exercise is to find evidence to support answers to the following questions: 1. How significant is the presence of bulk data companies associated with foreign countries in the UK economy? 2. Which sectors that possess bulk data have the most investment from foreign countries? 3. Are there identifiable trends that indicate whether foreign country ownership of bulk data companies in the UK economy is likely to change in future, and if so, how? SCOPE OF REQUIREMENTS Specification and Delivery: The delivery of the market assessment we are procuring will be completed in two phases: - Phase One: The supplier will identify sources of information and refine search criteria to produce an initial dataset of bulk data companies in scope of this research, and create a delivery plan for the rest of the project. - Phase Two: The supplier will cross reference the list of companies identified in phase one with ownership information to identify associations with foreign countries. Once bulk data companies associated with foreign countries have been identified, the supplier will analyse the data and provide insights into the sectors with the greatest presence of foreign ownership in the final market assessment.
