    Brief

    Historic England is seeking a supplier to develop Phase 4 of the 'Knowing the Heritage Sector' programme, which aims to create reliable market intelligence about heritage enterprises across England. The successful contractor will deliver a minimum viable product (MVP) that includes: (1) an initial comprehensive catalogue of heritage enterprises organized using consistent data structures and standards; (2) three static dashboard design concepts showing how the data could be presented to users. The catalogue will be built by combining multiple data sources, employing automated methods such as web-scraping and machine learning, and conducting manual review to ensure accuracy and completeness. This foundation will support a future market intelligence service to help heritage organizations make better decisions, collaborate more effectively, and drive innovation across the sector.
