Hampshire County Council is seeking to procure a new Framework for the supply, installation, and commissioning of a Real-Time Passenger Transport (RTPI) system and associated equipment, including the option of maintenance for up to 10 years from commencement of the Framework. This aligns with the life expectancy for a display. The Framework will be opened up nationally (to England, Scotland and Wales) for all contracting authorities to utilise the Framework subject to the signing of an Access Agreement. For the County Council, the Framework will establish a Service Interface for Real-time Information (SIRI) link with the County Council’s existing Central System (CS). SIRI is an interface standard for exchanging information about planned, current or predicted public transport information between different computer systems. These SIRI links will enable the transfer of this information to a new Content Management System (CMS) for dissemination out to various types of Electronic Displays. For participating authorities there will be two options. If they are already part of the County Council’s existing CS, then they will be able to adopt the same approach as the County Council. If they are not part of the County Council’s existing CS then the Framework will include the option for them to procure a CS, a CMS and various types of Electronic Displays. Since the award of the current RTPI framework procured in August 2021, and continuing from previous deployments in Hampshire, the RTPI system has expanded to handle direct links from bus operators’ tracking systems. These direct links provide the tracking data for the Central System to calculate and relay bus arrival times to 500 electronic displays (also procured and operated under the Framework) located at bus stations, bus stops and transport interchange hubs. The system not only provides RTPI but integrates other multi modal transport information, including live train departure information, service disruption information and also provides RTPI to Traveline and other public transport journey planning websites and apps. RTPI will continue to play a major role in providing live travel information to the travelling public, both through public transport infrastructure improvements and the digitalisation of services. Timely and accessible public transport information is seen as key to making public transport services commercially sustainable and, as a result, reducing the need for bus subsidy payment.

If no bids were received, work would be undertaken to understand why this has occurred. Providing that a substantial change to the original tender documents has not been required to secure a service provider, a request for a direct award would be made. Market engagement has been undertaken to make potential bidders aware of the services and when the tender may be available.\nDevolution/LGR\nThe government wants all remaining two-tier areas in England to be eventually restructured into single-tier unitary authorities and is termed Local Government Reform (LGR). This reorganisation is part of a broader devolution strategy to simplify local government structures, save public funds, and improve local accountability. LGR will impact the County of Hampshire as it currently operates a two-tier Local Government structure.\nIt is anticipated, that during the life of this framework, the LGR process will commence and/or progress potentially impacting this framework and the call-off contracts awarded from it. Impacts most likely will include, novations of the legal entities you may contract with. There are assignment clauses within the framework agreement that allow us to assign, novate etc. the agreements to another body.",
