2024/2025 - NHS WYICB - Diabetes Data Platform & Architecture

Tender description

West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) are running an early market engagement exercise to identify suppliers who may be interested in working in partnership to optimise management of the West Yorkshire diabetes pathway through the greater use of data. West Yorkshire ICB are keen to be at the forefront of this challenge and have an appetite to develop a data architecture and platform capable of utilising these disparate data sets to provide an end-end, data and insight-led view of the diabetes pathway. By harnessing the benefits which hybrid closed loop technologies have the potential to offer through greater data utilisation and insights, it’s intended this approach will deliver both clinical and operational improvements and requirements. This includes meeting national operating requirements, improvements in the local implementation of pathways, and unlocking efficiencies, but importantly, the potential to deliver improved care for people with diabetes through pathway optimisation. At this stage of the project, West Yorkshire ICB would like to engage with suppliers who would be interested in working in partnership to initially scope the current data provision, gaps, and insight needs, with a view to subsequently developing and implementing an appropriate data platform. Suppliers could include those interested in developing a bespoke platform, or those with their own existing data platform offering. For the avoidance of doubt, this notice is for early market engagement, and does not formally begin a procurement process or represent a commitment by West Yorkshire ICB to undertake an associated procurement process in the future.
