Description

The Department for Transport ('DfT') wishes to set up a contract to seek a feasible and detailed analytical system design for Freight Analysis and Modelling Environment (FAME), a new cross-modal freight analysis environment, in order to enhance the Department's analytical capability to support investment decisions, policy development, emergency responses and strategic directions.

This study (Stage 1 of the FAME) should deliver the following three key deliverables:

a. a literature review and a systematic understanding of freight and logistics; b. a feasible framework for the FAME with suitable analytical levers for scenario-based analysis; and, c. a detailed and feasible technical blueprint of viable analytical solutions supporting the DfT's freight analyses, such as those on end-to-end freight journeys and multimodal forecasting, including the methodologies for a national freight transport model and non-modelling tools, and data requirements.

Following an open tender competition, announced by a previous Contracts Finder notice, the Department for Transport has awarded a contract for the stage 1 study to MDS Transmodal. The total value of the contract is £43,100.00, excl. VAT. The contract shall commence on 07/08/2023 and terminate on 08/12/2023, with the option to extend this period for a further two months with less than 10 working days notice.
