About

West Midlands Combined Authority awarded a contract to PA Consulting Services Limited for the production of a National Outline Business Case and financial model to follow up on previous work related to contactless ticketing and best value capping (cEMV technology).

The project considered the Regional Broker Solution (produced in 2019) as the proposed national solution.

The Department for Transport (DfT) was the ultimate client and requested an Outline Business Case reflecting the wider national scope for approval within their assurance process.

The project was managed and funded by Midlands Connect.

The business case covered strategic, economic, commercial, financial, and management cases, including national scope documentation, refresh of delivery options, commercial arrangements with transport bodies, financial changes from the CBA, and controls for a national scheme.

The contract was awarded via CCS Management Consultancy Framework Three (MCF3 RM6187), Lot 8 (Infrastructure including Transport), with a value of AUD 95,000.
