Prior Information Notice - Maritime Modelling

The Maritime, Aviation and Appraisal Modelling team within the Department for Transport (DfT) is looking to inform the potential procurement of the following;

1. Inland waterways and leisure craft data: identifying and scoping data sources, including identifying gaps and coverage of the data.

2. Methodology to produce emissions estimates: reviewing the previous NAEI methodology and developing options for methodological approaches and assumptions that can be used to produce new emissions estimates for the vessel types in this sector using the identified data sources.

We are publishing this Prior Information Notice (PIN) seeking feedback from suppliers to establish the current capabilities, capacities, and appetite of the market in relation to these two workstreams.

Suppliers are invited to complete and return the attached document 'DfT Prior Information Notice - Maritime Modelling 1.8.24'. We welcome all feedback.
