Description

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, acting as contract awarding authority on behalf of Cambridge University Health Partners (CUHP), is inviting Tenders for the provision professional consultancy services to support the development of a data strategy for Cambridge Life Sciences.

Cambridge University Health Partners (CUHP) is one of eight Academic Health Science Centres in England whose mission is to improve patient healthcare by bringing together the NHS, industry and academia. The partners are:

• The University of Cambridge
• Cambridge and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust
• Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
• Royal Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

The objective is to establish a vision, framework and overarching roadmap for our approach to enabling the use of data in Cambridge to support the life science mission of 'discover, demonstrate and deliver' that is bought into and supported by key system stakeholders.
The resulting recommendations are unlikely to be a single programme or activity.

The initial consultancy will comprise approximately 4-6 weeks work - delivered over a protracted timescale to allow pauses for stakeholder engagement and iterative feedback. There will however be opportunity thereafter to provide subsequent consultancy services related to the initial project through to 4 April 2024.

Tender documents are available to download from the Trust's e-sourcing portal hosted by BravoSolutions (Jaggaer).
