## Summary

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority is seeking a supplier for the "GMCA Discovery for a Troubled Families Data and Analytics Solution Design" project, classified under IT services. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, with the contract value set at £40,000. The project is aimed at examining IT systems related to Troubled Families in Greater Manchester, with an emphasis on data analysis and predictive insights. The contract period commenced on 1 September 2020 and will run until 30 November 2020. This procurement was conducted through an open procedure.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in IT consulting, software development, and data analytics.

As the trend moves towards preventative interventions through data-informed strategies, businesses that can offer robust analytical tools and insights may find further growth potential in the public sector.

## Notice

A supplier is being procured to understand and review the IT systems in the Troubled Families arena across Greater Manchester. Our aim is to better understand interventions delivered, to link data on individuals and families and then provide analysis on the full cohort, with the ability to filter. To test hypothesis / theories on the cohort such as patterns that could lend themselves to predictive analysis. To evidence the value of data for the cohort, as a way of testing if this can be scaled up to other types of interventions. The data comes in different formats from different systems and quickly becomes too large for current analysis tool to calculate the required formula. This limits our ability to evidence our impact but also the potential of data to offer more than evaluations. We believe with the right data and right tools, we can provide regression analysis that will help us move to a preventative offer compared to a reactive approach. This will be procured via the Digital Outcomes framework.
