## Summary

The public procurement process, titled "Routeing Guide Development," was initiated by Rail Settlement Plan, a sub-central government public authority located in London. This project falls under the railway transport services industry category and involves developing the Routeing Guide to modernise its platform. The contract was awarded to iBlocks Ltd, a large company based in Leeds, following a direct procurement method. The rationale for this method was the necessary compatibility with the supplier’s software. The procurement stage of this process is complete, with key dates including the contract signing on 15th July 2025 and the publication of the contract notice on 23rd February 2026.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the railway transport services sector, particularly those capable of providing specialised technological development. Organisations like iBlocks Ltd are ideally positioned to benefit due to their ability to develop, upgrade, and fix software specific to the industry. By aligning with projects such as the Routeing Guide, businesses can enhance their portfolio and establish themselves as critical service providers in the industry, especially regarding the modernisation of industry-specific software platforms.

## Notice

The Routeing Guide (RG) is a critical industry reference system that defines the valid travel routes between origin and destination stations. It ensures consistency in journey planning, ticketing, and revenue allocation. It requires development to remove out of date software, remove security risks and modernise the platform.

### Procurement Information

The justification applys because only the contracting supplier can provide development, upgrades and fixes to its own software. Using any other supplier would be incompatible and they would not be able to perform the required tasks. Any incompatibility between existing systems and services could also result in time consuming and complex redesign and modification which could be unacceptable in the circumstances, for example, resulting in significant cost and/or delay to an important service.
