The Asset Management Systems Strategy (AMSS) is a workstream within the Asset Management Transformation Programme (AMTP) that provides a vision and approach for how National Highways wants its digital systems and tools to support and strengthen asset management activities across asset classes, business processes, regions, and operational divisions. The AMSS seeks to improve consistency, standardisation, integration, data accessibility and user experience across the current portfolio of asset management systems.

Charter 4 (Asset Knowledge) of the Asset Management Transformation Programme (AMTP) is a key tenet of the asset management transformation within the National Highways transformation landscape. The AMTP has ministerial and regulator commitments to deliver. Charter 4 covers 2 sub-charters: Charter 4a (Systems) and Charter 4b (Data).

The overall ambition of the charter is to deliver a rationalised and integrated Asset Management Systems (AMS) landscape with a relevant and appropriate operating model; that delivers optimised or re-engineered business processes, appropriate data governance and integration (process; data; processes; service; system), between AMS, our strategic platforms (Data- as-a-Service; Oracle Fusion; Works Management Systems, etc.) and decision support tools. This future state will deliver an increased user experience, reduced data duplication and double-keying and improve data management processes linked to a range of activities in the asset lifecycle, improving how our people perform those asset management activities

Published justification

The services provided under this contract represent a critical component of National Highways' Asset Management Systems Strategy (AMSS) which is a workstream within the Asset Management Transformation Programme (AMTP) that provides a vision and approach for how National Highways wants its digital systems and tools to support and strengthen asset management activities across asset classes, business processes, regions, and operational divisions.

Our asset management policy sets out our principles for asset management. Central to the delivery of those principles is the need for better data to make better decisions. Our Licence conditions require us to:

… develop and maintain high quality and readily accessible information about the assets held, operated and managed by the Licence holder in line with, and as a function of, the Licence holder’s 10 legal duties as a highway authority, including their condition, capability, and capacity, as well as their performance, including against any expectations set out in a Road Investment Strategy.

To deliver our asset data goals and licence condition requirements we need an organisation who is capable of managing its digital data assets. Our challenge being that our organisation was predominantly resourced to manage physical assets but not data assets. We have evidence that our data is not fit for purpose.

Our assurance proves the condition of our data is a symptom of our operating model and not a root cause. We know that our data is valuable and should be treated as an asset in its own right. We also know that our dependency on data is increasing so engaging as early as possible with de-risk medium- and longer-term goals.

It is therefore the case that a procurement for services with a relevant supplier to support the discovery and planning phase in the short-term is necessary in order to reduce the level of technical risk.

It is therefore the intention of National Highways to conduct future competitive procurements from the outputs of the deliverables from this service at the end of this contract term.
