West Yorkshire Combined Authority would like to invite interested suppliers to take part in this Pre-Market Engagement activity to support work on Development Partner to implement a Data Platform project.

he Combined Authority seeks to improve its transport data insights to support Bus Reform and Mass Transit as well as future large capital programmes, but faces challenges due to a shortage of data, poor data governance, and lack of analytical capabilities.
