## Summary

The public procurement process concerns the West Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive, which is seeking consultancy services for the project titled "Calder Valley Line - Wider Economic Case for Investment". This initiative falls within the business and management consultancy industry and is located in the Yorkshire and the Humber region. The procurement is currently in the Award stage. The tender period concluded on 20 November 2015, with the contract period set to run from 30 November 2015 to 29 February 2016. The total value of this contract is £40,000, awarded to Steer Davies Gleave.

This opportunity is well-suited for consultancy firms specialising in transport and economic analysis, particularly those with experience in rail services and regional development projects. The focus is on producing comprehensive evidence supporting enhancements to passenger rail services, which could lead to significant economic benefits. As the project aligns with initiatives like the "Northern Powerhouse" programme, businesses involved in rail infrastructure, economic consultancy, and stakeholder communications may find this project particularly responsive to their capabilities, thus fostering growth prospects in their market sectors.

## Notice

To update and expand upon previous work on the case for significant improvements in passenger rail services on the Calder Valley line, taking into account recent developments such as refranchising, the committed programmes of infrastructure enhancements, demand growth and the emergence of the "Northern Powerhouse" programme. The work is to focus on the economic benefits that enhancements (including transformational changes) in the line's offer would bring, and strengthen the evidence base for such improvements. The material produced should be capable of use in support of a wider communications programme in support of such investment, and of feeding into other work such as Transport for the North and Rail North.
