Challenge Works is seeking a supplier to provide a secure data platform – a ‘Smart Data Sandbox’ – that will enable participants in a Smart Data Challenge Prize to prototype and test a range of cross-sector Smart Data use cases.
Challenge Works is running the Smart Data Challenge Prize in partnership with the Department for Business & Trade, the Open Data Institute and Smart Data Foundry.
Smart Data is the secure sharing of customer data, upon the customer’s request, with authorised third-party providers (ATPs) who often enhance the customer data with broader, contextual ‘business’ data. These ATPs provide the customer with innovative services to improve decision making and engagement in a market.
The objective of the Prize is to showcase the potential opportunities Smart Data could bring to the UK economy, and to help inform the development of Smart Data schemes.
The primary function of the Smart Data Sandbox will be to provide access to synthetic data that replicates identified industry sectors. This synthetic data will be generated by the delivery partners and provided to the Sandbox supplier.
The full list of the functional and non-functional requirements are detailed in the invitation to tender.
