## Summary

The procurement process initiated by the West Yorkshire Combined Authority sought a development partner to implement a data platform for bus franchising and mass transit, classified under IT services. This selective procurement, following a restricted procedure, aimed at fostering competitive tendering but ultimately concluded with no award being made. The project, based in the Leeds region, underwent the award stage but was deemed unsuccessful on 3rd September 2024. The procurement related to a further competition under the Big Data and Analytics framework RM6195, focusing on consultancy and software development services.

Although this tender did not result in an award, similar opportunities can be lucrative for companies within the IT consulting and software development sector, especially those experienced in public transit data systems. The procurement's emphasis on quality, accounting for 80% of criteria, and competitive pricing, highlights the potential benefits for firms with strong project portfolios and cost-effective solutions. Future tenders from regional authorities like West Yorkshire Combined Authority can open doors for consistent business growth, particularly for firms adept at developing and integrating complex data platforms in the public transportation domain.
