02/ The brief

What the notice says

Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.

The Office for National Statistics (the Contracting Authority) requires support to conduct a Discovery phase on the key way forward across the areas below in order to help understand the scale of support the Programme requires to move forward successfully:

• Service Integration and Live Operations Management

• Service Design

• Stock and Flow model

• MI / BI solution

• Information Exchange

The Discovery phase will:

• Build clarity of current progress achieved across the five core areas of focus

• Develop a clear view of where the Programmes needs to be in these areas

• Identify gaps in design and capability and assess criticality

• Escalate to the programme executive and propose solutions to deliver these successfully

Outputs:

• Specification - "what needs to be produced" across the elements above

• Plan - "key activities and milestones" for Design & Delivery

• Gap analysis - "what is missing", insights across scope, skills/capabilities and timeline
