GeL-RE-111-19 Trusted Research Environment (TRE) - Strategic Partnership

Tender description

As part of 100,000 Genome Project, Genomics England Limited (“Genomics England”) established a secure research environment targeting the following outcomes: • Beneficial clinical outcomes for patients • Reduction in the systemic cost of care • New scientific insights and discovery • Accelerating the uptake of genomic medicine in the National Health Service (“NHS”). • Stimulating and enhancing UK industry and investment • Increasing public knowledge and support for genomic medicine. With sights now set on 5 million genomes in 5 years, Genomics England has been reviewing its strategic approach to deliver and operate a next-generation Trusted Research Environment (“TRE”). To date Genomics England has relied primarily on internal resourcing to maintain the research environment. Moving forward Genomics England seeks to establish a strategic partnership (“the Partnership”) that invests in, delivers, develops and maintains a secure, easy to use and collaborative TRE.
