Avanade appointed as the Data Integration Platform (DIP) Service Provider

The MHHS Programme and Elexon are pleased to announce the appointment of Avanade with their Microsoft Azure infrastructure solution as the Data Integration Platform Service Provider (DIPSP) for the Market-wide Half-Hourly Settlement (MHHS) Programme.

A vital technical component of the transition to Market-wide Half-Hourly Settlement is the introduction of the DIP which will be a new middleware service to process messages to and from participants using next-generation event messaging architecture. 

For the benefit of the industry, Elexon decided to partner with an expert IT delivery team to ensure sufficient capacity and talent to run a complex, technical transition and long-term maintenance of the platform.

Avanade colleagues will now start work in earnest, and several workshops have already been scheduled this month for the Avanade team, the Programme team and the Lead Delivery Partner (LDP), to finalise ways of working, and to complete the project mobilisation with a view to starting Design Build and Test (DBT) activities in Q1 2023.
