## Description
Rail Delivery Group (RDG) intends to procure the Phase 1 supplier set for a consolidated Great Britain Delay Repay service, aligned to the wider Great British Railways (GBR) implementation. RDG is expected to lead delivery and operation of the interim national capability prior to GBR go-live; solutions should therefore be connectable and portable to the evolving train operating company (TOC) / GBR technology stack and operating processes, with clear interfaces and practical transition support.
Phase 1 is expected to be structured into lots covering: (1) core Delay Repay platform and lead systems integration; (2) electronic Ticket Validation Database capability (eTVD); and potentially (3) print and postal fulfilment for letters/rail travel vouchers and the provision of rail travel vouchers and warrants for non DRS requirements.
RDG anticipates subsequent procurement, later including Pay As You Go (PAYG) scheme integration; Phase 1 solutions should support future operational hand-offs (e.g., exception queues and operational MI). Scope and sequencing are indicative and may be refined prior to tender.
The total spend values stated in this notice are based on estimated levels of capacity and throughput needed as at the date of this notice for the full contract duration including all term extensions exercised.
