Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how the contract for the One Big Thing 2024 platform and evaluation was procured; and whether Wazoku was appointed through open competition.
Access to the Wazoku Platform for One Big Thing 2024 was provided through an existing contract between Wazoku and the Ministry of Defence (MoD). MoD had access to unlimited external licences, which they made available to the Cabinet Office for use for One Big Thing.
The evaluation was done internally in the Cabinet Office by the Joint Data Analysis Centre.
