Brief

In accordance with Goal 8 of the Department of Transport’s National Sustainable Mobility Policy, the National Transport Authority wishes to undertake a National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) of 4,000 households throughout the Republic of Ireland between September 2024 and early December 2024. The purpose of the survey is to gather travel information statistics for the Authority’s ongoing transportation planning role, as well as to provide essential travel data for the update of its regional transport models, the development of additional transport modelling tools and monitoring and research on travel and transport. This survey will represent the fifth such NHTS - the first having been undertaken in 2012 and the most recent in 2023. The 2024 survey will also serve as a monitoring update on the 2022 and 2023 surveys. As such, the Authority is also aiming to obtain and compare cross-sectional travel-related statistics. I.e. Observed travel patterns at distinct points in time. The NHTS can help to understand relationships between travel patterns and other variables, like remote or hybrid working, sustainable mobility policy interventions, expansion of broadband internet connectivity, online shopping and parcel delivery, electric bikes, e-scooters, etc. that may be introduced or change over time. At a high level, the scope of services that would be covered under a contract will require the supplier to carry out the following tasks: review survey and research design; prepare and execute a Communications Plan; conduct a pilot survey using mixed sampling methods; develop and document the NHTS 2024 methodology; administer survey instruments and collect data; data processing, analysis, and quality control; produce and deliver interim data files; produce and deliver various monitoring reports and technical notes; prepare data weightings; produce and deliver final data files; create interim and final maps of sampled households; produce Draft NHTS 2024 Report; produce a Statistical Calculations file; produce tabular outputs; produce a Methodology and Quality report; and produce Final NHTS 2024 Report. The complete set of tasks and requirements will be further defined in the subsequent request for tenders.

    Qualification System for National Shared Micromobility Schemes

    The National Transport Authority (the “Authority”) wishes to establish a Qualification System in relation to contracts to operate certain Shared Micromobility Schemes throughout Ireland. This Qualification System will enable the procurement (by way of call off competitions), of operator(s) to supply and operate Shared Micromobility Scheme(s) in urban areas. The term of the Qualification System shall be five (5) years and shall commence on 14th February 2025. A candidate may seek admission to this Qualification System at any time during its term. The Qualification System shall be established and maintained by the Authority. Other contracting authorities may utilise the Qualification System to facilitate call off competitions pertaining to the operation of Shared Micromobility Schemes or shared micromobility projects funded by the Authority. Each call off contract is expected to comprise of, but not limited to the following principal obligations: • Provide, operate and maintain shared micromobility vehicles, (which can include bikes, e-bikes, e-scooters and/or e-cargo bikes) for the duration of the respective call-off contract; • Provide, operate and maintain a secure e-commerce platform for the duration of the respective call-off contract; • Operate a reliable and safe shared micromobility service as set out in the call-off contract; and • Promote the use of shared micromobility to encourage user demand. Under each call off competition, the services to be provided by the operator shall be defined by a services specification provided within the relevant tender documents and draft contract, but may comprise of one (1) or more of the following modes: • shared bikes; • shared e-bikes; • shared e-scooters; and/or • shared e-cargo bikes. Individual contracts may include: • one (1) or more of the modes detailed above, depending on local needs; and/or • one (1) or more operators, depending on local needs. Individual contracts under this Qualification System will involve varied operating business models depending on the circumstances of the contract in question. Such operating business models may include but are not limited to the following: • Operating contract; • Public/Private partnership (with or without revenue support); and/or • Licence/service permits. A range of tariffs shall be required to maximise user demand for the schemes. Individual contracts may include the following: • Subscription based tariffs (for frequent users); and/or • Single trip/Pay as You Go tariffs (for less frequent users). Individual contracts may include both tariffs set by the Authority or contracting authority and/or the operator(s). The provision of shared micromobility services require partnership working between the public sector and private sector operators. This can include financial support to both launch and grow service provision. Individual contracts may include: • Capital funding to support the implementation or expansion of a scheme; and/or • Revenue funding to support the ongoing operations of a scheme. Where shared micromobility schemes are already in existence, there may be existing on-street infrastructure and vehicles. Individual contracts may include options such as the following: • To re-use existing infrastructure and vehicles where possible; and/or • To replace existing infrastructure and vehicles as required. Full details of the Qualification System (including its operation) are provided within the Pre-Qualification Documents, which are available to all interested economic operators. All interested economic operators are now invited to submit a Pre-Qualification Submission for admission onto the Qualification System as set out in the Pre-Qualification Documents.
