## Summary

Devon County Council is seeking to enhance its data handling processes through the procurement titled "CP1609-08 Automatic of Data - Virtual Worker." This initiative falls under the IT services sector, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, and internet support. The contract was awarded on 19th July 2018, with a total contract value of £81,625. The effective contract period commences on 23rd July 2018 and extends until 22nd July 2020. The procurement process was conducted as part of the G Cloud 9 framework, and the project is located in Exeter, South West England, requiring attendance to service a considerable volume of children's data updates from local schools.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for SMEs, particularly those specialising in IT services and data automation.

## Notice

To use Virtual Worker (Automation) to cleanse data using the same processes as an existing data operative, but continues to process during non-working hours. The Authority currently receives updates of children's data from schools on a weekly basis. The demand for data has increased significantly in recent years with requirements to bring in records from public and school facing portals having a significant impact on the amount of data received (2.5 million items) since 31 August 2017. This increase is not new work but an increase in the existing requirement. Around 80% of these incoming records relate to Addresses and Carer data. Much of this data is currently discarded as a duplication of data we currently hold. DCC's requirement is to maintain suspense levels at around 14,000 outside of peak periods, this target has not been met since June 2017 levels can range from 10,000 to 40,000 student records
