    Brief

    West Midlands Fire Service (WMFS) seeks a delivery partner to design, build, and implement a cloud-based Lakehouse data platform serving as the organization's central trusted source for data and analytics. This fixed-price engagement is structured in two phases: Phase 1 (Discovery and Insight) involves assessing business requirements, analyzing the current data landscape, evaluating architecture options, and developing an implementation roadmap. Phase 2 (Design and Build) is optional and contingent upon successful Phase 1 completion and WMFS approval. The contract value encompasses both phases, though Phase 2 will only be awarded following Phase 1 evaluation. Suppliers should demonstrate expertise in cloud data platforms, Lakehouse architecture, data governance, and organizational change management. The successful partner will guide WMFS through platform transition and ensure effective knowledge transfer for long-term sustainability.
