What is being bought

Published requirement description

GTR are going out to market because the scale and complexity of fraud threats and require a step change in capability. The shift towards digital ticketing and the fragmented nature of industry data demand innovative tools that can provide holistic insight, reduce manual effort, and strengthen the integrity of our fraud investigations.

Through this market engagement, GTR aims to build a clear understanding of the solutions available, the maturity of relevant technologies, and the approaches that suppliers are taking to balance innovation with compliance. This will inform the design of a future procurement process and help ensure that any eventual investment delivers measurable improvements in fraud prevention, operational efficiency, and customer confidence.

GTR is seeking to engage with the market to understand the capabilities, innovations, and approaches currently available to support our ambition of transforming how we detect, analyse, and prevent fraud. Our current operational environment is highly manual, fragmented, and dependent on disparate datasets held across multiple internal systems and third-party retailers. This limits our ability to generate timely, reliable intelligence, and constrains our fraud specialists from focusing on higher-value activities.
