In an era where digital technology and physical infrastructure are converging, creating truly intelligent transport networks requires a sophisticated and strategic approach. I provide a broad spectrum of consultancy and advisory services tailored for both public sector clients and private sector suppliers. The central focus of my work is to deliver expert, independent guidance that optimises transport networks for enhanced safety, improved efficiency and demonstrable value for money. My services span the entire project lifecycle, from initial concept and strategic planning through to procurement, implementation and operational readiness, ensuring every decision is robust, evidence-based and aligned with long-term objectives.
Every successful transport technology scheme begins with a solid foundation. I produce detailed feasibility reports that provide the critical analysis needed for informed decision-making. This involves comprehensive analysis that goes beyond the surface to assess the technical and operational viability of a proposed project. I work with clients to develop long-term ITS technology strategy reports, preventing reactive or siloed investments and creating a clear, phased plan for modernisation that aligns with wider strategic goals, such as local transport plans or Net Zero targets.
In a market filled with competing claims and rapidly evolving technology, selecting the right solution and supplier is paramount. I perform rigorous technical due diligence, acting as a critical friend to your project team. This involves in-depth capability and suitability assessments of both the proposed technologies and the suppliers behind them.
My analysis stress-tests performance claims, evaluates interoperability with existing systems, scrutinises cybersecurity resilience and assesses a supplier's track record and support infrastructure. This service is crucial for comprehensive risk mitigation. It safeguards against vendor lock-in, unforeseen integration costs and the deployment of systems that are not fit-for-purpose or will quickly become obsolete, ensuring your investment is both secure and future-proof.
A brilliant strategy is only as good as its execution. I guide clients through the complex final stages of project delivery, navigating the practical and procedural landscape of technology implementation. This includes developing phased rollout plans designed to minimise disruption to the public and ensure a smooth transition for operational staff. Furthermore, I provide expert advice on the intricate web of regulatory requirements and national standards that govern UK transport infrastructure. Ensuring full compliance is not just a procedural hurdle, it is fundamental to legal operation, public safety and seamless integration with other systems. This hands-on support de-risks the most critical phase of your project, ensuring it is delivered successfully, on time, and in full compliance with all necessary standards.
