Description

Transport Focus intends to establish a new internal function to gather, manage, and use transport data, including but not limited to large open data feeds such as the Bus Open Data Service (BODS) and from Network Rail, as well as links to other organisations data feeds. This function will support internal analysis, reporting, and insight generation, for example the development of reporting dashboards. The organisation requires external consultancy to provide on the staffing and technical capabilities needed to set up and operate this service. The consultancy will not be required to design policy, carry out user research, or implement systems.
