Provision of web based Carpooling Managed Service

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) is seeking suitable suppliers for the provision of a web based Carpooling Managed Service (CPMS) for use by Queensland Government officers.

The RFO is developed in conjunction with TravelSmart, a unit of TMR’s Passenger Transport Division.

TravelSmart is a voluntary travel behaviour change program that encourages Queenslanders to use more sustainable modes of transport such as public transport, cycling, walking and carpooling. It provides participants the opportunity to contribute to a better environment by helping to relieve traffic congestion. The TravelSmart Program has four sub-programs which are directed at workplaces, schools, destinations and communities.

The Carpooling Managed Service will be used to:
a) Enable convenient registration and carpool matching to all Queensland Government officers from their desktop;
b) Encourage Queensland Government officers to choose carpooling (as opposed to single occupancy vehicle trips) as a viable transport option for their commute to work;
c) Report on ‘End User’ activity statistics, for example, the number of:
i) Registered users;
ii) Successful matches;
iii) Carpooling trips travelled; and
iv) Vehicle kilometres travelled saved.
v) Provide other relevant features and functionality.
