GB-London: COF-ADA Analysis and Attribution of Causal Self-Evident Reactionary Delays

NOTE: This notice was updated on 28 October 2019 for the following reason: This Procurement closes 3rd December 2019, at 17.00 hrs. Expression of Interest deadline amended to reflect this.(This research sets out to develop and test a proof of concept that identifies and analyses self-evident reactionary chains, to improve performance, attribution analysis and enable the automation of attributing reactionary delays. It is expected that the output of the research will be a demonstrator with a route to market fully defined, including ownership, governance, sustainability and change controls of the solution. The demonstrator should be able to run in 'shadow mode', at the same time as live delay attribution and performance analysis and reporting, to understand what actions could have been taken through the solution.

The high-level objectives for COF-ADA are:

1.Define the industry, functional and non-functional requirements of a novel solution to identify and analyse self-evident causal reactionary delays

2.Define and agree potential approaches to identify and analyse self-evident causal reactionary delays

3.Develop the agreed approach into a proof of concept solution

4.Test and demonstrate the validity and reliability of the proof of concept

5.Support the industry change management and implementation of the proof of concept solution)
