This procurement process, initiated by tender and executed as a direct award, is aimed at producing modelled metrics and bespoke online visualization tools to quantify health loss from various diseases and injuries. The key dates include the contract start date on 1 May 2025 and end date on 31 March 2027, with the award notice published on 15 April 2025. The contract value is estimated at £384,000 gross and £320,000 net, and the procurement has reached the award stage. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in medical analysis services, data visualization, and health metrics development. It is particularly suited for organisations with the capability to manage large-scale data and advanced modelling techniques, such as those experienced in handling health and epidemiological data. The exclusive involvement of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation highlights the importance of high technical expertise and resource-intensive methodologies, ideal for large companies in healthcare analytics and data sciences looking to expand their footprint in public health projects. ## Notice The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) programme produces a series of modelled metrics that provide a comprehensive picture of mortality and disability across geographies, time, age groups and gender. It quantifies health loss from hundreds of diseases, injuries, and risk factors, so that health systems can be improved and disparities eliminated. Summary of the required goods or services: 1) Produce a set of modelled metrics. Metrics covering risk factors and health outcomes available at local geography level (national, subnational, local authority), gender, age groups, years (1990 onwards). All metrics expressed as number, rate, and percent, where applicable. 2) Produce bespoke online visualisation tools. To be based on England's administrative boundaries (national, regional, local authority), allowing to display all metrics produced under 1). ### Procurement Information The Global Burden of Disease study is a comparative risk assessment of burden of disease and injury attributable to a mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive set of fatal and non-fatal health outcomes. The 2021 edition covered 371 diseases and injuries in 204 countries and territories and 811 subnational locations, 1990-2021. In England, GBD metrics are available as time series since 1990, at national, regional and local authority level. The metrics produced are estimates of years lived with disability (YLDs), years of life lost (YLLs), disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), and healthy life expectancy (HALE). Prevalence and incidence of death and morbidity are produced as by-products of the modelling exercise. Data are usually extracted from vital registration systems, verbal autopsies, censuses, household surveys, disease-specific registries, health service contact data, and other sources, including published literature. The 2021 edition utilised 2,348 data sources for the UK alone. The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation have developed and refined the methodology over the past 30 years. Its human and IT resources allow IHME to produce these metrics for over 200 countries in an ongoing production cycle. It is the only organisation of this kind worldwide to have produced these public global goods for decades. Its quality assurance framework comprises a worldwide Collaborative Network of experts, an Independent Advisory Committee and a Secretariat. Production of metrics complies with the Guidelines for Accurate and Transparent Health Estimates Reporting (GATHER) recommendations. The Institute owns the Intellectual Property rights to modelling methodology, tools and data visualisation software. The technical complexity, the IT and labour-intensive nature of the work and the QA framework make IHME the only supplier of these metrics to the standard required, leaving no reasonable alternative. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/015389-2025 | | Notice type | UK5 - Transparency Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Direct award | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Apr 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 15 Apr 2025 | | Contract period | 30 Apr 2025 - 31 Mar 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £320,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Pending | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DHSC, LONDON | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1H 0EU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85148000 - Medical analysis services ## Release History - 15 Apr 2025 at 18:26 - Award - UK5 - Transparency Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/015389-2025 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/015389-2025 15th April 2025 - Transparency notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-of-health-and-social-care - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
