This initiative, classified under research and development services, is located in London (postcode EC2M 2RB). A key milestone for this project is the Supplier Event scheduled for Monday, 8th April from 11:00 to 13:00, with a deadline for engagement set for Friday, 5th April. Potential suppliers are encouraged to express their interest via email by the deadline. This procurement opportunity is particularly well-suited for businesses specialising in research and development, especially those with expertise in public safety, transportation, or crime prevention strategies. Companies that can offer innovative solutions or technologies for trespass detection and prevention may find this tender creates pathways for collaboration with the Railway industry and contribute to enhanced safety measures. Furthermore, small and medium-sized enterprises are welcomed to engage, fostering a competitive environment that could lead to growth and long-term partnerships within the sector. ## Notice RSSB is holding a Supplier Event on Monday 8th April from 11:00 to 13:00 regarding "RSSB2790 - T1168-02 - Evaluating effectiveness of Trespass Detection and Prevention methodologies". Should your organisation wish to attend please email the following email address by COP Friday 5th April: Shareditt@rssb.co.uk -- grown steadily, reaching an all-time high in 2018. With this has come an increase in delay minutes due to trespass, and injuries and deaths of trespassers. Trespass is also a factor in crimes such as cable theft, vandalism and fare evasion. When the trauma of injuries and deaths to the friends and family of the deceased, staff involved, or witnesses is considered, it can be concluded that trespass damages every part of the rail ecosystem. People who are trespassing for different reasons could be prevented from doing so with different interventions. For instance, if a certain location sees a lot of trespass because the railway obstructs travel between two popular locations, building a rail bridge could eliminate the problem. A bridge would not eliminate the problem of people trespassing if they intend to vandalise infrastructure. The industry-wide collaborative Trespass Improvement Programme was set up in January 2018. The programme includes RSSB, the British Transport Police, Rail Delivery Group, ORR, DfT, passenger and freight train operating companies, and Network Rail. A recent output of this was a Trespass Bowtie Risk Assessment. Another, led by BTP and Network Rail was the You Vs Train Campaign launched this summer. Other significant work in trespass conducted by RSSB includes an investigation into causal factors for trespass via station platform ends (T322) which was recently updated. RSSB conducted a knowledge search, S317 Technologies to Tackle Trespass, which identified gaps in existing research where further work could be beneficial, specifically: * There is a lack of understanding surrounding what motivates trespass and how this differs geographically and temporally across the GB network. * Different strategies and technologies to prevent trespass have not been evaluated in a consistent and reliable manner. Choosing a solution which is effective against trespass, and appropriate to the type of trespass happening at a given location is subsequently difficult. This project intends to tackle both gaps. The first, by working with Network Rail to gather and analyse data on trespass. The second, by developing guidance on experimental design which could be used to evaluate interventions in the future, and a framework for scoring the success of different interventions in order to compare them. This work could also generate insight which could contribute to future updates of T322 guidelines and provide empirical data to support the Trespass Bowtie Risk Assessment. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7a6a29e5-86fb-493b-8ba3-ec398c877ab0 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Mar 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 5 Apr 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | RAIL SAFETY AND STANDARDS BOARD LIMITED | | 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 | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 28 Mar 2019 at 08:40 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7a6a29e5-86fb-493b-8ba3-ec398c877ab0 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7a6a29e5-86fb-493b-8ba3-ec398c877ab0 28th March 2019 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/75f36743-9a2f-493e-bfde-3a2fe8a5cf8e T1168 Specification Draft 0.91_ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
