DESCRIPTION

The organization is seeking a Microsoft Fabric implementation partner to co-design and co-develop the target-state architecture, governance model, and initial reference implementation for a unified enterprise data analytics platform. The selected partner will work directly alongside internal data engineering staff throughout the engagement.

The scope includes co-designing and documenting a domain-based medallion architecture, with agency data engineers actively participating in design sessions. The partner will also co-design a Microsoft Purview governance model, including collection structures, classification methods, and a business glossary aligned to business domains, as well as jointly configure initial Purview scanning for Azure SQL and Power Platform sources.

The partner will co-design a metadata-driven ingestion framework and reference implementation covering API, database, and file-based sources. One working implementation for each source type will be developed against real agency sources, enabling the organization's team to replicate the patterns across remaining priority sources. The engagement also includes configuring Microsoft Fabric deployment pipelines integrated with existing Azure DevOps Git repositories, with agency data engineers completing configuration activities under the partner's direction.
