Work description
The Authority is inviting suppliers to attend the following Market Engagement Session. This Expression of Interest (EOI) is simply to notify suppliers of the engagement session, and it is NOT an EOI to receive Invitation to Tender (ITT) documents.
Please see attached EOI document for full details and registration instructions.
The Authority is currently consulting on the design of an open data scheme for road fuel prices (PumpWatch) including whether an aggregator model is the best option for PumpWatch.
Government has proposed a Statutory Open Data scheme (i.e. PumpWatch) for prices in the retail road fuel sector. This scheme would mandate that all Petrol Fuel Station (PFSs) (~8300 forecourts) in the UK to share prices on open and real-time basis to an aggregation service appointed by the Authority. This will allow consumers to easily compare prices to help find cheaper fuel.
