Description

The Department for Transport (DfT), acting on behalf of the UK Government, is seeking to appoint a Supplier to demonstrate a proof of concept for using novel data sources (including mobile data, GPS, surveys or a combination of data sources) to produce an analysis of transport behaviours of different groups of transport users identified through cluster analysis, and how those change geographically. DfT requires the services of a Supplier to undertake a Feasibility Study, create a new Dataset and a Proof-of-Concept Analysis Tool for geographical and demographic analysis. The Requirement will be split into four, interlinked, Key Deliverables. The DfT's detailed technical and other requirements for this opportunity are set out in Schedule 2 Specification. The aim of this work is to create a data driven approach for the department to better predict and measure the impact of policies or events across different demographics, user needs and areas of the country. Should the proof of concept add value to existing data sources and processes, the department may look to scale and operationalise such a solution, instigate its use in policy making as well as providing an open data set for research.
