The North Lanarkshire Council - Education & Families, in collaboration with Transport Scotland, has awarded the LATIS MFA2021 LOT 1 PROCUREMENT Contract for the Development, Update, and Application of Transport Models. The contract, with a total value of GBP 4,600,000, aims to maintain and enhance the Transport Model for Scotland to support the testing and appraisal of transportation projects and policies. The tender process initiated on June 1, 2022, and concluded on May 31, 2025, providing opportunities for civil engineering and consultancy service providers.

## Notice

Transport Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Ministers has identified an on-going need for the services of experienced consultants to carry out services in connection with Transport and Land-Use Modelling and Transport Appraisal and Planning. Transport Scotland, on behalf of the Scottish Ministers, wishes to progress a procurement competition for a Multi-Supplier Framework Agreement. The Framework Agreement, to cover 3 years with a 1-year extension option, will be available for use by Regional Transport Partnerships and other Scottish Government Directorates. The framework will consist of 4 Lots and this Stage 2 Notice is for Lot 1 - Development, Update and Application of Transport Models. Anticipated total value of call-off contracts for Lot 1 over the 4-year period of the Framework Agreement is GBP 4,600,000.The scope of Lot 1 Services is centred around general updates to the Transport Model for Scotland (TMfS) and keeping future year scenarios up to date. This will include providing advice, improving and maintaining a new suite of scenario-based transport models. The Services will also include adding and improving functionality to new or existing models, including TMfS, second-tier models (regional models) and third-tier models (local area models). During the framework period, a National Accessibility Model will be adopted into LATIS Lot 1 and will be part of the development and maintenance requirement. It should be noted that most of the current LATIS models have some degree of interface to the national Transport, Economic and Land-use Model of Scotland (TELMoS). All Lot 1 models exist to support the Scottish Ministers in the testing and appraisal of projects and policies and while these have traditionally focussed on road and rail projects, the modelling framework is expanding to address a wider range of policies, scenarios and metrics, reflecting the outcomes sought by the second National Transport Strategy (NTS2).
