## Summary

The University of Exeter has completed a procurement process for the "Data Improvement Project - Data Management Application". This project aims to enhance the use, management, and governance of data within the university through the implementation of a data management application. It falls under the industry category of Electronic Data Management (EDM), with additional classifications including IT services and data services. The contract was awarded to IntoZetta Ltd for a total value of £135,000, with a contract period beginning on 12 October 2020 and lasting until 11 October 2023. The procurement method used was an open procedure, allowing for broader participation in the tender process.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on IT solutions, particularly those specialising in data management applications. Companies that can demonstrate expertise in developing and implementing such applications, as well as providing necessary staff training, would be well-suited to engage in future tenders of a similar nature. Given the evolving needs for data integration and governance, there is a growing demand for innovative technology that can enhance information flow within organisations like the University of Exeter.

## Notice

Our aim is to procure and implement a data management application that improves the university's Use, Management and Governance of Data. Whilst our preferred solution would cover Use, Management and Governance, we acknowledge that, given the differing needs for these three areas, we may need to procure a portfolio of applications, potentially from more than one vendor, that can easily exchange data with each other. The key objectives that we expect to support through the data management application are: * Ensure that we can produce high quality, consistent datasets which will help to unlock insights into our activities and inform decisions to achieve our plans; * Address issues around the integration of core systems to improve the flow of information between systems; and * Establish a common approach to the governance of data, clarifying data ownership of specific pieces of data and also what it means to be a data owner in terms of data maintenance. An integral part of the procurement is the provision of Staff training for the setup, configuration and use of the application(s).
