Short description
This is an Award Notice only.
The ‘Interoperability Management Platform’ (IMP) is the tolling interoperability system which enables the electronic toll collection (ETC) in Ireland, whereby a single electronic toll tag / on board unit (OBU) can be utilised to make toll payments at all toll plazas in Ireland. The use of ETC assists in increasing the vehicle throughput through toll plazas, provides a convenience to customers to make toll payment and simplifies revenue collection and consolidation among the various toll plaza and electronic toll tag providers.
The IMP is currently in its 2nd generation contract, with the current contract due to expire in June 2022.

Description of the procurement
TII requires certain interoperability management and information technology services for the purpose of providing national and European electronic tolling services for motorists within Ireland.
The Interoperability Management Platform was previously referred to as the Interoperability Management Service (IMS) as managed, operated and maintained by the Interoperability Management Service Provider (IMSP) on behalf of the Authority.
This IMP service enables ETC interoperability across all toll roads in Ireland by establishing the necessary infrastructure and processes (as supported by the commercial and contractual frameworks) between all the relevant parties. This means that the holder of an account from any Irish TSP can use any toll road in Ireland and be charged through that one account.
At present the IMP is facilitating an estimated 750,000 vehicles equipped with OBEs. In 2019 the financial value of the interoperable tolling transactions which were processed via the IMSP was in the region of €158 million with an average of 5 million transactions being processed per month and continuing to grow. At present the IMP facilitates this interoperability service for 11 toll roads (i.e. (TC’s) located in Ireland, and 2 independent (TSP’s).
TII’s contract with the current Provider will expire mid-2022. TII therefore requires a new IMP Provider to provide all interoperability management and information technology services in relation to providing interoperability services for motorists within Ireland. It should be noted that the new IMP will be required to comply with relevant European Electronic Toll Service (EETS) requirements and related Electronic Fee Collection standards. The IMP required will be open, flexible and extensible and capable of supporting a broader service/technical scope for a more converged and federated platform ecosystem for national mobility.
