What is being bought
The implementation of a new and improved Lennon system, which is provided by Worldline. The Future Lennon Programme seeks to deliver an enhanced system, including replacing the ORCATS allocation factor calculator, with one that enables a more realistic approach to revenue allocation using increased volumes of data based on near real-life journeys taken by passengers. The enhancement programme compromises: (i) Implementation of new allocation factor calculator hosted in the Cloud (ii) Upgrade of Lennon to refactor software for greater sustainability and supportability and to accommodate output from new allocation factor calculator (iii) Transferring Lennon to a Cloud hosted environment

No-engagement rationaleNot published
Procedure rationaleThe software underpinning the LENNON and ORCATS system is bespoke and specialist to the industry and requires extensive railway knowledge to build and manage. The absence of this crucial knowledge proved to be instrumental in the failure of a previous attempt to procure an alternative provider in an already limited market. Successful delivery of the upgrade to this system is vital to the Government’s vision for railway reform.
