Regional Strategic Model

The aim of this project is to provide a step-change improvement in transport planning across the West Midlands, allowing Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) and it partner Highway Authorities to accurately consider comprehensive information and insights about the likely impacts of schemes and policies in the region. It should also valuable insight into existing travel behaviours and patterns than can be readily abstracted from basic observations of the transport system. This project also aims to provide additional insight which can support the targeted promotion of new mobility services to end users. The expectation is that the RSM will utilise a mixture of existing market platforms and bespoked services, which may be licensed from the supplier or third parties. As well as the WMCA, the RSM may be utilised by other public bodies and the wider supply chain of suppliers to the WMCA and the other public bodies. It is envisaged that the term of contract will be up to 2 years in duration, with an option for WMCA to extend for a total renewal term of up to 4 years in increments of 1 to 2 year extension terms. This is subject to change and will be confirmed at the time of tender publication.
