This tender is classified under the industry category of research and development services and related consultancy services. The current procurement stage is open, with the tender period ending on 16th June 2021. The contract is set to commence on 16th August 2021 and will run until 12th March 2022. The contract value is estimated between £50,000 and £100,000, with an open procedure procurement method being utilised. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in technological development and consultancy within the rail industry. Companies with expertise in analysing and evaluating technological options to mitigate operational risks would be well-suited to participate in this tender. The focus on immediate and short-term solutions creates a niche for innovative firms capable of delivering timely insights and interventions to enhance safety in rail transportation. ## Notice *Identify immediate and short-term technological options that could help mitigate the risk from over-speeding through speed restrictions, including but not limited to emergency speed restrictions (ESRs), temporary speed restrictions (TSRs), blanket speed restrictions and permissible speed limits. This study will focus on interventions that are implementable in the immediate to short term; Radio Based Limited Supervision (RBLS) and European Train Control System (ETCS) are considered to be the medium to long-term ideal mitigations against train over-speeding risk, and this project doesn't intend to overlap or question the work that industry is doing on these interventions and their roll-out. *Analyse and rate the technological interventions, assessing each option against an agreed criteria, to inform whether and which intervention merits further analysis. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/97922efd-3e74-42a9-a918-f6e0eacb52c9 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Jun 2021 | | Submission deadline | 16 Jun 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 15 Aug 2021 - 12 Mar 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | RSSB | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | EC2M 2RB | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI43 Haringey and Islington | | Local authority | Islington | | Electoral ward | Bunhill | | Westminster constituency | Islington South and Finsbury | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 9 Jun 2021 at 14:25 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/97922efd-3e74-42a9-a918-f6e0eacb52c9 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/97922efd-3e74-42a9-a918-f6e0eacb52c9 9th June 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-GB-London:-Review-of-technological-interventions-to-mitigate-train-over-speeding-risk---T1251/4N88GA8KJQ Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
