Award of Data & Insight Alpha Project

The Alpha phase is focused on developing and testing a data pipeline that enables data to be ingested, cleaned, stored, combined, and reported on. The Alpha phase has been framed as a proof of concept [PoC], intended to test and validate approaches, build understanding of what is required to scale, and inform future phases. The procurement comprises two equally important and interdependent aspects: a. Technical support in developing and refining the data pipeline, and, b. Support in understanding Sport Wales’ data culture, readiness, and capability to adopt and implement the pipeline and associated ways of working. The PoC is expected to enable Sport Wales to answer a small number of clearly defined, high-value investment-related questions that currently require significant manual effort to answer and would benefit from the triangulation of multiple data sources to provide a more complete and rounded evidence base.
