Summary of the contracting process

The West Yorkshire Combined Authority sought a supplier or consortium to develop a new Public Transport Data Management System through an open procedure as part of a service procurement in the systems and technical consultancy services category. Located in Leeds, within the UKE4 region, this project aimed to centralise public transport data to enhance interconnected services supporting their operational objectives. The initial tender, initially open for bids electronically by 7th April 2025, described a system intended to integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure. However, the final contract, valued at £1,827,977, was awarded to Velociti Solutions Ltd on 14th July 2025, following a completion of the award process.

This tender provided growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT systems development, database management, and technical consultancy services. Suitable companies included SMEs like Velociti Solutions Ltd, which can demonstrate expertise in developing integrative, robust data systems required for managing complex service ecosystems. Additionally, firms capable of offering social value or enhancing non-functional requirements were aptly positioned to meet the procurement needs outlined by the Combined Authority, fostering a collaborative environment for public service enhancement.

Notice Title

Public Transport Data Management System

Notice Description

The West Yorkshire Combined Authority (the CA) is seeking a single supplier or consortium of suppliers to provide a new public transport data management system to replace its current existing single system. The core purpose of the Public Transport Data Management System for the CA is to act as a single data hub for public transport information. In this function, it is not an isolated service but rather exists as part of a wider ecosystem in a range of interconnected services that support each other. In their entirety, they support the business processes that deliver the organisation's objectives and must work together to achieve such delivery. From its initial conception and specification of requirements, the data flows and processes in the wider ecosystem have shaped and influenced the design and development of the current system throughout its life.
