Data Collection Services (Re procurement of the Bank of England's Electronic Data System, BEEDS)

Description

BEEDS is the Bank's current strategic data collection system and is the primary digital gateway for collecting regulatory and statistical data from our firms. The system underpins a very large number of critical data collections and is relied on daily by firms and teams across the Bank. The Bank plans to update and modernise our data collection capabilities with the new data collection platform and associated data modelling and toolsets. The Bank will also require XBRL validation processing services and professional services to deploy the new Data Collection System and to migrate some existing data. Note an earlier RFI was published and earlier engagement on BEEDS took place in 2024. Operational reasons then delayed further procurement activity until this year.
