Description
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 the following Lots: - Lot 1 is for Development, Update and Application of Transport Models; - Lot 2 is for Advice on the Case for Transport Investment; - Lot 3 is for Development, Update and Application of Economic and Land-Use Models; and - Lot 4 is for Transport Planning Advice.
Lot Division
| 1 | Development, Update and Application of Transport Models 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). |
| 3 | Development, Update and Application of Economic and Land-Use Models The Services under Lot 3 will primarily relate to the development, update and application of the Transport, Economic and Land-Use Model of Scotland (TELMoS) to facilitate the output of strategic transport and land-use planning advice for authorities and third parties. TELMoS will have many interactions with modelling and policy appraisal work undertaken within the other three Lots and an understanding of their requirements is essential. The delivery of Lot 3 Services will require an active and collaborative role to be undertaken in the model audit process on TELMoS, and also on audits of other LATIS models where there is functional interaction with TELMoS. All modelling work undertaken in Lot 3 is 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). |
