C3S2_430a_bis Maintenance and Evolution of the European Climate Data Explorer

Description

ECMWF, as the Entrusted Entity for the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), invites Tenders for the maintenance and evolution of the European Climate Data Explorer (ECDE). ECMWF intends to award a single Framework Agreement for a period of maximum 24 months, which shall be implemented via a single multi-annual Service Contract expected to commence in Q4 2026. ECDE is a key climate-information platform jointly operated by C3S and the European Environment Agency (EEA). It serves as a bridge between high-quality climate data in the Climate Data Store (CDS) and the needs of European climate-adaptation practitioners. This ITT aims to maintain and further develop the ECDE service to provide the Climate-ADAPT and C3S user communities access to additional relevant climate information, whilst addressing the needs of key users in the assessment of climate change impacts across Europe. As a starting point this will be achieved by ensuring operational access to high priority indicators as identified by the EEA.
