The total value of the licence contract is £43,994, with an award amounting to £52,797.6, including all related expenses.

This tender offers valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in the development and provision of railway traffic control software and related services. Companies like WORLDLINE IT SERVICES UK LIMITED, who secured this contract, demonstrate the ideal profile: large-scale entities with expertise in software solutions for public transport systems. Other businesses involved in software development for the transport sector and those looking to supply similar products and services could find growth possibilities in such tenders, particularly if located within or targeting the UK market. This tender highlights the importance of being able to provide specialised software that meets specific operational requirements for government-run or publicly used services, thus enabling significant opportunities for companies in the transport IT domain.

## Notice

London Overground requires the use of train planning and diagramming software to operate the Core Windrush Line as the current obsolete Signalling Control and Display system cannot automatically produce the data required to be used by Train Operating Companies and Network Rail. This is an annual subscription for Train planning and diagramming software called Voyager Plan. Voyager plan is a comprehensive train planning system that allows for the creation of timetables and diagramming tools, the software supports the train service planning functions by allowing for the creation of route geography, train specifications and point-to-point timings to produce viable services. The software then enables the resourcing requirements to be built up for these services for both vehicles and train crew. The total cost for this licence is PS43,994
