What is being bought

Published requirement description

To deliver on this vision, the platform must be able to provide full analytics on:

  • Markets: The market landscape, market size and key players competing in this space.

o NICA track behaviours across-category, so we might want to highlight key market sectors to begin with.

  • Trends: Existing and emerging innovations that fit with our areas of interest – keeping the data monitored over time as a permanent source of observation.

o NICA have developed a domain framework, which would need to be integrated.

  • Behaviours: End-user insights to gauge appetite for and acceptability of existing solutions and identify opportunity gaps.

o NICA have developed coded behaviours as part of our ontology requiring semantic search – keeping the data monitored over time as a permanent source of observation.

The platform must also be configurable to include a suggested list of data sources (1,000 – 2,000 including but not limited to; stocks, companies, organisations and thought leaders) and have the capability to embed data visualisations from an external API / source, which will be fuelled by internal activity with our VOICE community.

  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “(NU/1589-78) National Innovation Centre for Ageing Platform” is a dynamic market: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.
