Tender description
The Met Office seeks supply of foundation level upskilling on the basis and effective application of machine-learning techniques for weather and climate applications. This upskilling is aimed at those who have basic awareness of machine-learning and what it can do, but no experience in using these techniques and setting up workflows to analyse or predict from the data sets they work with. The Met Office wishes to take this opportunity to open competition with its Met Office Academic Partners. Separately, we are considering whether to procure an upskilling offer for other levels. These do not form part of this requirement. The indicative budget available to develop and deliver such upskilling comes from the Transatlantic Data Science Academy and is approximately £50k - £100k.

About the buyer
Met Office buys as a central government agency, delivering weather and climate services as an executive agency and trading fund of the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology. Tenders run through the Met Office's own ProActis portal, with opportunities and awards also published on Contracts Finder and Find a Tender. Collaborative government agreements route much of its buying through the Crown Commercial Service, alongside the ESPO and YPO frameworks. Standard contracts are awarded through desktop competitions or full tender exercises, usually inviting four or more suppliers to bid. The commercial team runs this process, following Cabinet Office best practice.
Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.
Over the past 5 years, most of Met Office's contract awards have been in software and information systems, research and development and IT services.
