02/ The brief
What the notice says
Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.
Transport for Wales (TfW) seeks to procure a supplier to deliver a Proof of Concept (PoC) that supports its transition from standards consumer to informed standards steward. The objective is to develop a structured methodology and digital tooling that will enable TfW to understand, evaluate, and potentially author operational standards.
The supplier will be required to:
Extract requirement-level obligations from a defined set of standards documents across multiple operational domains.
Design and implement a visual, navigable knowledge graph that captures the relationships, intersections, duplications, and gaps across these standards.
Provide structured metadata and classification to support discoverability and traceability of requirements.
Deliver strategic insight into where TfW may need to: Adopt, adapt, or retire existing standards, author or commission new standards to meet operational needs
Deliverables:
A functional, interactive knowledge graph platform or prototype
Supporting database and documentation detailing the standards mapping process
Executive summary report highlighting key findings, risks, and opportunities
Recommendations for scaling the system post-PoC
