This notice relates to the procurement of the cloud based Software as a Service ('SaaS') software solution (the 'IT Solution'). The IT Solution supplier will be required to work together with the aforementioned suppliers on the CDC2 Programme. Aerial photography for the first tranche of CDC2 schools is expected to be procured and managed directly by the DfE. Please note that the IT solution supplier was procured first, followed by the procurement of the SOs and TQM. In summary the IT Solution must provide: - field based data collection for both school and further education establishments via a surveyor operated mobile device app, - development and manipulation of the data by SOs PMO team via a web app, - web app 'data audit' functionality operable by an audit team, - functionality to enable secure reporting to schools, colleges, responsible bodies and a variety of other stakeholders. Data being collected, stored and processed via the IT Solution has been classified as official and/or official sensitive, as such the IT Solution must be capable of providing sufficient data security at the level of official sensitive. New data is provided by a large number of internal and external users across a range of devices. The IT Solution will need to be capable of allowing the DfE to draw live or near- live data into an existing internal database via API in a form that enables bespoke analysis by the DfE's analysts. The contract for the IT Solution (the 'Agreement') will be divided into 2 stages. The first stage will be a mobilisation phase during which the supplier will implement their solution, including API links, migration of CDC data, functional testing and UAT. The second stage will be the operational phase and this will be contingent on the successful procurement of the SO and TQM supplier contracts. The initial term of the contract will be 6 years, with option to extend for a further period or periods of up to a maximum overall extension of two (2) years. The initial term begins with an implementation period of 6 months and allows for a 5 month handover period prior to expiry (and the optional extension). This is to accommodate the 5 year CDC2 programme. Supplementary to the CDC2 programme and process, the DfE may require the IT Solution to collect data to support the school NCA to understand the use of spaces within a school. This data is used to measure and plan school places provision.
