The contract is set to commence on 1st October 2018, following the completion of the previous service on 31st March 2020, and is valued at up to £200,000 annually. The tender period concludes at 5pm on 18th July 2018, and as part of this open procurement method, interested parties will need to submit their expressions of interest before this deadline. This opportunity presents a significant growth potential for businesses involved in data management, software development, and educational services, particularly those that offer innovative applications leveraging open data principles. SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations are encouraged to participate, as the project aims to promote a technical infrastructure that is secure and accessible, fostering broad stakeholder engagement across various occupations for end-users. ## Notice The Labour Market Information for All service was transferred to DfE from the UK Commission for Employment and Skills (UKCES) in October 2016. LMI for all is a collation of high quality datasets. The service runs on the principles of open data, which means the data can be accessed free of charge via an API (application programming interface). Third party developers can access the data to create careers applications, which can be embedded into careers websites. The data is then used by a wide range of stakeholders, such as schools, career practitioners, adults and young people. The key benefit of LMI for All is that it provides robust data from national sources that allow end-users to explore and compare occupations they are interested in on a consistent basis. The project aims for LMI for all are: * To maintain and develop a comprehensive, high quality data offering that can inform career choices. * To offer a technical infrastructure that provides a secure, engaging, accessible and reliable platform for LMI for All. * To promote the widest possible take-up among third-party websites and applications as a means of opening-up the data to individual decision-makers * To build wider awareness, understanding and support for LMI for All among key stakeholder groups, including careers and technical communities. The service compromises three main parts. A technical infrastructure which involves ensuring the service is secure, non disclosive and accessible. Data housing and data development which involves refreshing the data and maintaining the quality of the data. Stakeholder engagement which involves promoting awareness and understanding of LMI for All. We intend to re-tender the whole service.
