FYI, HDI-relevant competition
1. Summary
MOD’s Information Systems and Services (ISS) vision is to deliver
information capabilities by developing closer alignment with industry
partners. Through this CDE themed competition ISS is looking for a
prototype solution to provide an unstructured and open-source data
analytics platform for defence.
Your proposed solution should:
take in data from documents, raw files, scanned files and structured data
sources
analyse data and integrate with multiple analysis tools using information
structures provided by ISS
provide a configurable dictionary
visualise the data and its dependencies
allow further development of the platform
demonstrate innovation and interoperability to open standards
To achieve this you could customise commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS),
open-source or freely available products, or develop a customised solution
with a partner organisation.
2. Total funding
Up to £250,000 in total is available for funding phase 1 of this
competition. We expect to fund projects up to £50,000 that demonstrate a
prototype and outline of the next phase of work that is required.
ISS intends to take forward successful outputs of CDE-funded projects from
this themed competition for phase-2 funding. Subject to exploitable
solutions being delivered from phase 1, it’s anticipated that up to £2
million will be made available for phase 2. Funding will be considered on a
per-project basis.
3. Competition close
Competition closes on Thursday 13 August 2015 at 5pm. Proposals must be
submitted through the CDE online portal.
