In this procurement, the vision for the Health analysis platform (HAP) includes data and analysis services for researchers, authorities, health personnel, industry, inhabitants and health leaders. These user groups have multiple needs that can largely be served by the same technical systems and organisational functions.
The Health analysis platform will strengthen privacy by reducing the need to give access to personally identifiable information, and increase the individual’s control over their own personal information and how it is used.
The scope of the procurement includes development, establishment, maintenance and operation of the following parts of HAP:
Data platform with built-in privacy, including the technical system that makes it possible to integrate with and receive data from a broad spectrum of different data sources (for e.g. National Health Register), possibility to administrate and manage data, possibility of making data accessible for the end-users in a secure and efficient manner at the same time establishing an ecosystem of data suppliers and data products.
Data and analysis services includes digital services offered to end-users where they can use and analyse health data in a secure and flexible manner. This includes explorative analysis, secure analysis infrastructure and establishing a technical solution for an ecosystem where multiple suppliers can offer their analytical products and services. This also includes services where the data supplier can produce and quality assure data products, as well as services for the National Health Register.
Resident services are first and foremost services targeting residents so that their rights can be safeguarded, but also includes services to improve the dialogue between researchers and the general population. Resident services will primarily be delivered through the existing resident portal Helsenorge. Front end development on Helsenorge is not in the scope of this procurement.
Development work for HAP’s data sources related to moving data to HAP (for e.g. assist the register in the development of the user-interface) are within the scope of this procurement.
The estimated total value is only an estimate and the value can be both hire or lower than estimated. The estimate is no way binding for the Directorate of eHealth. The exact scope of this procurement will be clarified through the dialogue and the scope can be changed within the framework of the procurement regulations.
The participants should note that as part of the dialogue, the customer will also seek to clarify if it is necessary to sign direct contracts with any third parties (e.g. Cloud services providers) as part of, or in addition to, the ‘Cloud Services Contract for Data and Analysis Services’.
The contract is not exclusive.
