## Summary

The procurement process for the contract titled "LATIS Models - Post COVID Validity" was carried out by Transport Scotland, a central purchasing body based in Glasgow, UK. The contract falls under the Services category and has already been awarded. The procurement method used was an open procedure. The contract, with an award value of GBP 75,000, was signed on 30th March 2023. The tender involved a post-COVID model validation exercise for a suite of transport models in Scotland to assess if they remain suitable post-pandemic, aiming to improve intervention selection and design.

This awarded contract presents an opportunity for businesses, particularly SMEs in the transport and land-use modelling sector, to engage with Transport Scotland. Companies with expertise in transport appraisal and planning services would find this tender suitable. As the contract involves post-COVID model validation, businesses knowledgeable in adapting transport models to changing travel patterns would be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this tender could lead to growth opportunities for businesses looking to provide innovative solutions in the transport sector across Scotland.

## Notice

The national and sub-national suite of transport models (TMfS, SRM, SRTM, TCRTM, ASAM, MFTM) developed and maintained by Transport Scotland in partnership with the Regional Transport Partnerships are important tools in the development of the business cases and design of transport interventions across Scotland. All of the models have a base year which predates the COVID pandemic. If travel patterns and behaviours are significantly different post-pandemic then the models may no longer be 'fit for purpose' resulting in poor intervention selection and design. To inform the magnitude of this risk and any necessary mitigation, a post-COVID model validation exercise is being done.
