Notice Title

RSSB2720 - T1154 PERFORM Enabling better planning and resource management during disruption - Supplier Day Friday 27th July

Notice Description

RSSB is holding a Supplier Day on Friday 27th July from 14:00 - 15:30 at RSSB's offices in London. If you would like to attend please email the following email address by 17:00 on Thursday 26th July: Shareditt@rssb.co.uk -- The draft research specification which follows outlines RSSB's proposed research project Enabling Better Planning and Resource Management During Disruption. This pre-tender suppliers meeting has been scheduled for Friday 27 July 2018 at 2pm at the RSSB offices in Moorgate, London. The purpose of this meeting is to: * Provide an outline of the project proposal * Provide interested suppliers an opportunity understand and discuss the draft research specification. We ask that suppliers come to the meeting prepared to discuss the following elements that RSSB would like to firm up before publishing the ITT: * What and how much support would be needed from industry to deliver this work (e.g. access to staff to interview, data, contingency plans, etc)? * What enablers would support successful delivery of the project? * What barriers are there to achieving the objectives? * Are the described timescales achievable? How might the outputs change with a variation to the time? * What is the suppliers estimate of effort required to deliver the project? Draft Specification 1 Background Delivering against the timetable is an important commitment of the rail industry. Customers expect train services to be punctual, reliable and perform to the advertised timetable. Currently, service performance is determined by metrics including the Public Performance Measure (PPM) and Cancellation and Significant Lateness (CaSL) . These metrics provide indicators of punctuality and reliability and are affected by service delay and disruption. Industry data shows a national decline in performance over the past five years , highlighting a concern regarding the current industry response to, and recovery from disruption. Causes of disruption vary, with localised and contextual circumstances influencing the performance of each route. Generally, disruption to train services may include incidents arising from infrastructure failures, fleet reliability, traincrew, seasonality, and external factors (e.g. trespass). Such events will delay trains and can lead to service cancellations, hampering the measured performance against the timetable. For example, data from Network Rail's top 10 incidents during 2017/18 Period 10, show that one track circuit failure incident caused 15,262 delay minutes and the cancellation of 115 trains. Across GB, delays to passenger and freight services during 2017/18 totalled 14,800,000 minutes. This represents increase of 16% since 2010/11, of which 6% increase over the last financial year (2016/17) . Meanwhile, rail demand has increased by 48.9% since 2006, with 1.7 billion passen
