What is being bought

Our Future Health aims to be the UK's largest ever health research programme. It is designed to help people live healthier lives for longer through the discovery and testing of more effective approaches to prevention, earlier detection and treatment of diseases. Our Future Health aims to procure: - secure and scalable public cloud infrastructure to support our health research programme - a trusted research environment (TRE) to enable registered and approved researchers to access and use data within a secure environment - a partner to manage the billing of cloud compute and storage costs for researchers using the TRE

Lot details

Cloud infrastructure

Our Future Health aims to procure secure and scalable public cloud infrastructure to support a health research programme. The selected supplier will be one of our most important technology partners as we build and scale our systems. The cloud infrastructure will underpin web sites and apps used by our participants, a data store and data processing systems, a trusted research environment (TRE) and associated systems used by researchers from around the world, and underlying systems to operate and monitor the programme. The selected supplier will provide UK hosting for secure public cloud infrastructure with a comprehensive set of standard compute, storage and infrastructure services. We are interested to work with cloud providers that have good availability of TRE providers already working within their systems.

Trusted research environment

Our Future Health is planning to procure a trusted research environment (TRE) to enable registered researchers to access and use data within a single secure environment to conduct approved research studies. The success of Our Future Health rests on the research that is done with the data and the cohort, together with our commitment to robust security, strict governance and participant confidentiality. A TRE is an environment, that may be cloud-based, that allows registered researchers working on an approved study to conduct analysis on de-identified or pseudonymised datasets in a secure manner, where export of results data is permitted but exports of individual level data is not permitted. It is expected that a TRE will create a separate partitioned workspace for each approved study, allow registered researchers to use a variety of common tools for data science, analysis, and research (including large-scale genomic analysis), to upload additional tools and datasets subject to the security restrictions of the environment, to have flexibility in their use of compute and storage resources. A TRE should maintain the access control and secure boundary to prevent unauthorised access to or download of data, and to maintain auditable access and usage logs. The selected TRE (lot 2) will be expected to run on the selected cloud infrastructure (lot 1), with the selected provider of researcher billing (lot 3) providing services to manage the cost and billing of cloud usage by researchers in the TRE. We hope to have a beta version of a TRE tested and launched by the end of Q3 2022, and a full version tested and launched by the end of Q4 2022.

Researcher billing

In order to provide a scalable and flexible service, where researchers can use the cloud resources that they need, we anticipate a system where researchers pay for their own cloud storage and compute within their TRE workspace. We are therefore planning to procure a partner who can meet the following requirements, working together with the selected provider of public cloud infrastructure (lot 1) or the selected TRE (lot 2): - Billing of researchers and collection of payments to be handled by a supplier or partner, not by Our Future Health. - Our Future Health shall not be liable for the costs of researchers' compute and storage within the TRE. - Our Future Health shall not incur data transfer charges between the primary data store and the TRE. - Cloud pricing shall be uniform for both Our Future Health's usage and researcher usage. Bidders cannot bid for Lot 3 alone and must bid for both or either Lot 1 and/or Lot 2.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Billing system (48444100); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 486,8371 median · 9.6 average (2,487 of 6,837 with a bid count)1.8 average (2,927 of 6,837 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

The success of Our Future Health rests on the research that is done with the data and the cohort, together with our commitment to robust security, strict governance and participant confidentiality. A TRE is an environment, that may be cloud-based, that allows registered researchers working on an approved study to conduct analysis on de-identified or pseudonymised datasets in a secure manner, where export of results data is permitted but exports of individual level data is not permitted. It is expected that a TRE will create a separate partitioned workspace for each approved study, allow registered researchers to use a variety of common tools for data science, analysis, and research (including large-scale genomic analysis), to upload additional tools and datasets subject to the security restrictions of the environment, to have flexibility in their use of compute and storage resources. A TRE should maintain the access control and secure boundary to prevent unauthorised access to or download of data, and to maintain auditable access and usage logs.\nThe selected TRE (lot 2) will be expected to run on the selected cloud infrastructure (lot 1), with the selected provider of researcher billing (lot 3) providing services to manage the cost and billing of cloud usage by researchers in the TRE.\nWe hope to have a beta version of a TRE tested and launched by the end of Q3 2022, and a full version tested and launched by the end of Q4 2022.",

The cloud infrastructure will underpin web sites and apps used by our participants, a data store and data processing systems, a trusted research environment (TRE) and associated systems used by researchers from around the world, and underlying systems to operate and monitor the programme.\nThe selected supplier will provide UK hosting for secure public cloud infrastructure with a comprehensive set of standard compute, storage and infrastructure services. We are interested to work with cloud providers that have good availability of TRE providers already working within their systems.\nEstimated value excluding VAT: between £3m and £6.5m over 3 years; £20m over 5 years\nWe expect costs to increase as participant numbers increase. Total projected costs during years 1-3 of the contractual arrangement would be between £3m and £6.5m and over 5 years we expect a range of £9m - £21m. We will not be able to predict a narrower range until we have more clarity during 2022 about which services will be hosted in our cloud and which with suppliers, as well as more detailed technical and data architecture that will happen following this procurement. Note that these costs include only Our Future Health usage of our cloud, not that of the researchers using the TRE billed separated by the Lot 3 supplier. The total cloud expenditure will therefore be considerably greater than the value of our contract.
