## Summary

The Leeds City Council has completed a procurement process titled "Discovery and development of Economic Monitoring Tool," aimed at creating a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that analyses economic trends, particularly in response to Brexit. The project falls under the industry category of IT services, with a total contract value of £25,000. The contract period commenced on 13 January 2020 and will conclude on 31 March 2020, following a tender period that ended on 18 December 2019. The project is classified under IT services and business consultancy, primarily focused on utilising council and open data for policy development.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in IT services, consultancy, and software development. Businesses experienced in economic analysis and the creation of sophisticated data tools will find this an advantageous opportunity to contribute to public sector projects. Potential suppliers could leverage their expertise to enhance policy-making through data-driven insights, driving growth through active participation in similar future opportunities with the council.

## Notice

The Council has run a mini competition to appoint a provider to undertake discovery work to lead the development of a Minimum viable Product (MVP) which utilises both council data and open data to deepen our understanding of the trends and developments in the economy. The initial driver it is to understand how the economy is responding to Brexit, but we intend this Product to develop further over time to help us make informed decisions around policy development. Additionally the Product may be applied to monitor the impact of interventions, for instance, work on inclusive growth and to accelerate our MIT Regional Entrepreneurship Acceleration Programme (REAP)
