The aim is to assess the economic advantages these technologies can bring to both the transport industry and users. The tender, titled "Socio-Economic Impacts of Quantum Technologies in UK Transport 2030 - 2040," falls under the Research and Development services category and has a contract value of £60,000. The procurement method is an open procedure, with the tender closing on 8th December 2023 and the contract period running from 22nd December 2023 to 5th April 2024 in London, United Kingdom. This opportunity is suited for businesses specialised in economic and social research services, as well as those focusing on quantum technologies. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate. By engaging in this tender, businesses can contribute towards shaping the future of quantum technologies in the UK transport sector and showcasing how these advancements can drive economic growth and improve transportation efficiency in the upcoming years. ## Notice The requirement is to commission a socio-economic report on the benefits of quantum technologies in the UK transport sector from 2030 to 2040. While many quantum technologies are in early developmental stages, there are a broad range of direct and indirect quantum applications of great benefit to the transport sector which can overcome existing challenges and provide new opportunities. There is a need to evaluate the socio-economic benefits to demonstrate how these transformative quantum technologies will deliver economic benefits in the transport sector (for example, by streamlining daily operations and maintenance); and the transport user ( for example, through ease of movement and improved journey times). Currently there has been no work that quantifies the estimated economic benefits of quantum technologies, in the transport sector, to the UK economy or to transport users. We will begin to see quantum technologies become commercialised over the course of the next eight years and this report will help DfT to develop an insight into where the key socio/economic benefits will be realised in the transport sector between 2030 and 2040. This report will also help to provide content for DfT's Vision for Quantum in Transport, a document to be published in Spring 2024.
