Summary

Machine-generated summary

Research services to design, prototype and evaluate data pipelines that collect, structure, validate and monitor evidence from heterogeneous public data sources. The work combines deterministic data engineering (API and database extraction, parsing), machine learning and large language models with human expert validation. Package 1 supports INCITE, building a pilot to identify and update project-level information on decarbonisation, depollution, resource efficiency and circular economy techniques in industrial and livestock installations. Package 2 develops and tests methods for a facility-level dataset of circular-economy installations in EU Member States, covering waste recovery, sorting, processing and recycling facilities. Deliverables include documented prototypes, validated datasets, quantitative evaluation of accuracy, coverage and cost, and a feasibility assessment for scaling up.

Description

A contract for research services to design, prototype and evaluate data pipelines for collecting, structuring, validating and monitoring evidence from heterogeneous public data sources. The pipelines should combine deterministic data engineering (API and database extraction, parsing), machine learning, and large language models (LLMs) with human expert validation. The contract will be structured in two broad packages. Work-package 1 supports INCITE (https://innovation-centre-for-industrial-transformation.ec.europa.eu). It shall develop a pilot to identify and update project-level information on emerging and established techniques for decarbonisation, depollution, resource efficiency and circular economy in industrial and livestock installations, covering technology, maturity, financing, performance and dependencies. Work-package 2 shall develop and tests methods to build and maintain a facility-level dataset of circular-economy installations in EU Member States. This covers facilities that recover, sort, process or recycle waste and by-products into secondary materials, including their location, capacities, technologies, ownership, inputs, outputs and commercial links. Both work-packages are exploratory pilots: the aim is to demonstrate and rigorously evaluate workflows, not to deliver a production platform. The contractor must deliver documented prototype pipelines, validated datasets, a quantitative evaluation of accuracy, coverage and cost, and a feasibility assessment for continuous updates and scale-up. In terms of the technical approach, the contractor is expected to propose a hybrid architecture, choosing the most appropriate technique for each task and justifying it on accuracy, cost, reproducibility and maintainability. For example: • Structured sources (e.g. EU funding databases such as CORDIS, Innovation Fund and LIFE; the EU Industrial Emissions Portal; national permit registries; Eurostat) can be accessed deterministically via APIs, bulk downloads or database extraction wherever possible. • Machine learning and rule-based methods can be used for classification, deduplication, geocoding and entity resolution across sources. • LLMs can be used mainly to extract structured information from unstructured documents (permits, company websites, press releases, scientific publications, sustainability and financial reports). Agent-based workflows can be used in cases where multi-step search is necessary.

Bid or no-bid?

Six questions before you commit a team. Under each one, what the register holds on it. The answers are yours.

  1. Check this first:

    Do we meet every eligibility criterion?

    Negotiated procedure: the buyer negotiates the terms with the suppliers it admits.

  2. Your call:

    Can we deliver this with the team we have?

    The register holds nothing on this. The official documents will.

  3. Your call:

    Do we have two comparable references?

    Comparable work is in Research & development.

  4. Check this first:

    Is the deadline realistic for a proper offer?

    6 days left.

  5. Your call:

    Is there a margin at the likely winning price?

    The register holds nothing on this. The official documents will.

  6. Your call:

    Do we know this buyer?

    The buyer has 259 notices in the register and no pattern of winners yet.
