Summary of the contracting process

Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) has initiated a tender for a connected vehicle data provider to support the Safer Roads Greater Manchester (SRGM) Partnership. This partnership is dedicated to promoting road safety and aims for zero fatalities on Greater Manchester's roads by 2040. The procurement process, with a value of £708,000, is in the tender stage, engaging a competitive flexible procedure comprising two stages: a Preliminary Supplier Questionnaire (PSQ) stage and a Main stage. Relevant parties must submit their expressions of interest by 3 PM on 8 June 2026, with tender submissions due by 7 July 2026. The contract, valued above the procurement threshold, is for public road transport and data services, potentially extending from 2026 to 2029.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in connected vehicle data, data capture, analysis, and supply services. With the objective of enhancing road safety and operational insights, the procurement is well-suited for businesses offering advanced data solutions that can provide insights into road user behaviour, collision risks, and operational trends. Suppliers capable of supporting real-time data integration and trend analysis will find themselves in an advantageous position to collaborate on this strategic public safety initiative. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with robust technical expertise and a commitment to social value may find further advantages, as the procurement evaluation criteria place importance on technical quality and social impacts.

Notice Title

TfGM Connected Vehicle Data

Notice Description

TfGM is looking to find and contact with a specialist supplier in the area of connected vehicle data. TfGM on behalf of Safer Roads Greater Manchester (SRGM) Partnership is seeking a connected vehicle data provider to collaborate with TfGM's internal teams and partner authorities. SRGM is a multi-agency partnership dedicated to reducing fatalities and serious injuries on Greater Manchester's (GM ) roads by influencing attitudes and behaviours. The Safer Roads Partnership is responsible for countywide functions, as agreed with Greater Manchester partners, including casualty data and analysis, performance monitoring, and safety camera operations. The SRGM Partnership is committed to Vision Zero. Vision Zero represents Greater Manchester's ambition for zero fatalities and life changing injuries (FLCI) on our roads by 2040, whilst increasing safe, healthy and equitable mobility for all. It includes a challenging interim target of 50% reduction in FLCI casualty numbers by 2030, from 2022 levels. The Vision Zero Strategy adopts the Safe System, whereby people, vehicles and the road infrastructure interact in a way that secures a high level of safety. The objective is to deliver a comprehensive suite of analytical services aimed at deepening our understanding of road user behaviour and collision risk. In addition, several further benefits and use cases for connected vehicle data have been identified within TfGM and its partner network. TfGM is therefore looking for a partner who can provide a multi-use source of connected vehicle data. The data will support a range of use cases enabling historic trend analysis, operational insight and real-time intervention.
