## Summary

The Department of Transport is conducting a procurement process for a subscription service titled "Biofuels & Battery Price Data." This contract, valued at £53,720.65, falls under the subscription services category and is part of the broader services industry. The contract is currently in the Award stage, with the contract period designated from 18 December 2018 to 20 December 2018. The initial tender period concluded on 17 December 2018, and the award notice was published on 19 December 2018.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in data analytics and subscription services related to transportation and electric vehicle markets. Companies that can provide accurate price data or related insights into biofuels and battery technologies would be particularly well-suited to bid. The contract is not specifically aimed at small or voluntary community sector enterprises, which indicates that larger firms with more resources may find this an advantageous opportunity to expand their service offerings in the public sector.

## Notice

We need a new subscription to this data service, in order to estimate the economic viability of electric vehicles well as the RTFO's cost impact on motorists for reporting. We have had subscriptions for this data in the past but the last contract became too expensive to renew through single tender action.
