Other Information

The purpose of this document is to enable interested Enterprise Integration Specialists to outline their expertise and experience in delivering a solution for the problem outlined below. This will allow us to evaluate responses and refine our statement of requirements accordingly. There are several options available to us and this exercise will help inform these options including assessing feasibility. This document is not part of the formal procurement process, and additional supplier engagement may be required before any future formal procurement is launched. Following receipt of responses from Suppliers a statement of detailed and extensive requirements will be produced for the development of the solution to be issued as part of the Invitation to Tender (ITT). We also need to select the optimum Route to Market to use for launching the formal ITT. We are looking to replace our current system - as part of this exercise we intend to demonstrate how the current system works to those Suppliers who may be interested in bidding. The primary focus of this exercise is to better understand Supply Market interest, capacity and capability, as well as any perceived risks and opportunities. This builds on our commitment to engage with the Supply Market, by sharing information and seeking input to inform, develop and optimise the final procurement documentation in a fair, open, and transparent manner. Consequently, this should also help reduce the number of clarification questions that may arise during the formal procurement process itself. Once published, the procurement documentation will contain the final requirements for this procurement project - all previous versions, including any documents published at this stage should then be disregarded. It is within our gift to decide how we use the information gathered from Supplier responses and any subsequent Supplier discussions that may be held. We are therefore seeking to engage a partner(s) to design, build and operate the new solution. Potential Suppliers should register their interest in this procurement by sending an email message by no later than 13th October 2023 to: v_GaryBoatright@tfl.gov.uk Your EOI email message should clearly state: • Project title: "Stations Transfer & Trains Forecasting Application" • Supplier name • Contact details The attached document provides further details of the requirement as well as a questionnaire to allow you to participate in this exercise. It is the intention to host an in-person Supplier Briefing Event which shall demonstrate the Current System and those companies who have expressed an interest shall be invited.
