Description

Pension guidance tools data provision

As part of its pensions guidance transformation strategy, the Money and Pension Service (MaPS) is looking to improve its digital pensions guidance offering by providing retirement planning journeys and tools that meet the needs of different groups of people. This will help consumers answer what do I need, what should I do now and to model their options.

Given the complexity of people's pension holdings there is a need to provide a broad range of tools, that can be tailored to individuals' personal circumstances and their life situation. These tools need to be simple to use, engaging, and able to support both simple and complex decision making and retirement planning. This will range from providing rational tools that could help a consumer with one thing to more complex, customisable, interactive tools that allows for 'what-if' scenario planning.
These will be web-based multi-channel tools and calculators covering all life-stages including pre, at, and in retirement. They will be accessible across a range of devices and designed to increase engagement and educate consumers. We also intend to develop tools that can be linked together as well as with the consumers profile so that data provided in one tool or from their profile can be pre-populated across the guidance journeys we provide.
These tools will be developed and built on our consumer facing website, MoneyHelper. Our intention is to develop and maintain the front-end user interfaces and functionality but are looking for suppliers to provide the necessary data feeds via API's to support the provision of those tools and journeys. The front-end user interfaces will be built on our infrastructure (AEM) and utilise our API gateway. If suppliers have existing complementary front-end user interfaces that can be used in conjunction with the data feeds they provide, we may explore the potential use of these solutions, on an interim basis thereby providing benefit to consumers faster. This would be subject to MaPS reviewing those front-end user interfaces to ensure they are suitable to meet the aims and needs of our consumers.

We intend for the contract for these services to begin towards the end of 2022 and be for an initial period of three to four years.MaPS therefore wishes to ascertain interest from the market prior to any potential tender process for the provision of these services. We ask that any suppliers who would be interested in bidding for this opportunity to please indicate this by replying to the contact email address by close of play Friday the 22nd of July.

As part of your expressions of interest, please also indicate if you have potentially suitable front end user interfaces that could be used in conjunction with the date feeds.
