DfTc Department For Transport Tender

Ntmv5 Is Version 5 Of The Department's National Transport Model. It Is A Strategic Model Of Surface Travel Demand Responses And Highway Route Choice. It Uses Ptv Visum Software (currently Version Visum 23). The Department Now Requires Ntmv5 To Be Updated To Reflect Changes In Travel Demand Following The Covid-19 Pandemic. The Update Is Needed By The End Of 2024 To Support Future Forecasting Activity In 2025. The Forecasting Activity Is Likely To Focus More On Regional Traffic By Vehicle Type And Road Type Than Traffic On Individual Links, Although There May Be Interest In Presenting Some Information (potentially Relating To Motorways And Other Trunk Roads) In Thematic Maps. The Main Components That Need To Be Updated Are The Demand Model And The Highway Assignment Model. The Department Intends To Carry Out High-level Updates To The Demand Model Component Of Ntmv5 (including Trip Frequency, Mode Choice, And If Necessary Location Choice) In-house. ********* Please Note That This Procurement Will Be Run Using The Department For Transport's E-sourcing Platform Jaggaer, To Which All Interested Suppliers Are Invited To Register.
