The tender period concluded on 5th February 2020, while the contract, awarded to TRL, began on 7th February 2020 and is scheduled to run until 8th September 2020.

Notice Title

1-1029 DFT Stakeholder Engagement and Needs Analysis

Notice Description

The Department for Transport is looking to set up a contract for provision of consultancy to deliver Stakeholder Engagement and Needs Analysis to support the development and delivery of the Departments Science Plan. The DfT's Chief Scientific Advisor is leading the development and delivery of the Science Plan, which will; - Set out transport's key science, research and innovation challenges and investment priorities; - How we will engage with academia, business and industry to meet these challenges and will join up across the transport landscape to develop, test and deploy solutions. - Set out how delivery of those solutions will be underpinned and enabled by skills in government, industry and academia. The plan will be based on a core set of transport challenges or problems where focussed R&D is crucial to delivering a solution in the near, medium and long term. Well-structured stakeholder engagement is therefore essential to understanding the needs across DfT, and in the wider transport related R&D community.
