Immigration New Zealand (INZ) is in the process of purchasing a scalable technical platform to perform risk analytics and the associated support services for the data science function within INZ. As part of the Risk Analytics Platform (RAP) project, the first stage of choosing a platform has been completed. INZ will use Microsoft Azure services, including Azure Databricks.
The project is required to establish the platform and tools, the governance around the use of these, and is also required to develop models for use by client systems.
This procurement relates to the second stage of the project, namely, the setup of a panel of suppliers to support the data science practice at Immigration New Zealand (INZ). We want assistance in getting the most out of our data, and we want to do this safely, in line with the principles issued by the Government Chief Data Steward and the Privacy Commissioner, meeting high technical and ethical standards. Initially this panel is likely to be used to support the RAP Project, however we anticipate that that there may be future projects within INZ that may use the panel if their requirements meet the scope.
