The project entails developing a user-friendly journey planning tool for their website, targeting the travel services industry. This consultation period is intended to gather insights before a full tender is released. Key details include a total contract value of £100,000, with a budget allocation of £20,000 for the fiscal year 2020/2021. The responses to the preliminary consultation must be submitted by 4 pm on 29 November 2019, with the contract period set to commence in February 2020 and potentially extend to February 2025. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in travel services, software development, and digital platforms. Companies with experience in creating user-centric applications and those who can provide real-time transportation data will find this especially relevant. The competitive environment is conducive to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their footprint by participating in adaptive transport solutions that align with evolving customer needs. Engaging with this opportunity could pave the way for enriched service offerings and increased market presence. ## Notice South Yorkshire Transport Executive currently provides a journey planning tool for customers on its customer facing website https://www.travelsouthyorkshire.com. The journey planning tool is the fourth most popular section of the website and is accessed by customers via mobile and desktop browsers. Approximately 350,000 journey plans are made each year. As a response to market changes, and the findings of market research nationally and locally, we are keen to be able to provide a journey planning tool that provides information to customers on how they can get from A to B easily, by their mode of their choice (including walking and cycling) , in addition to advising how much their journey will cost, where their bus / tram / train is in real-time and how long they need to wait, and if there are any disruptions along their planned journey.
