Agenda • Ambitions of the CHARM programme • Ian Chalmers Programme Manager Highways Agency • The Process for the CHARM market consultation • Johann Visser Programme Manager Rijkswaterstaat
CHARM - Overview • The aim of CHARM is to define a new generation of traffic management systems, that may be jointly purchased. • The outcomes are: • To a high extent support the traffic management processes in each organisation, currently and within the foreseeable future; • Enable operational resilience (in case of fire, power failure, etc.); • Support a managed service model, promote functional development during the operational phase, and prevent vendor lock-in; • Enable the total cost of ownership to be reduced significantly from the parties' current generation of traffic management centers.
Background • The organisations: • Have worked together to share knowledge and experience. • Are very similar and share similar problems. • Face similar issues in addressing rising cost of ownership and vendor lock-in. • Wish to decouple their technology solutions from the business requirements so that new operating models can be implemented and achieve efficiency savings. • Aggregating the demand from several organisations increases the potential for expanding the market and reducing costs.
