Technical requirements: GNSS Tolling Engine functionality (Development and Implementation Agreement concerning delivery of functionality and Master Services Agreement during operation)
Competitive procedure with negotiation for services required to design, develop, implement, test and operate a GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) Tolling Engine for the Danish road network, enabling Sund & Bælt to act as Toll Charger for the Danish EETS domain (hereafter the “Contract”).
In the contract notice Section II.2.4) the requested functionality and services are further described, and the tender documents include a description of the project in further detail.
The procurement is part of the implementation of the Kilometer Tolling Scheme for lorries in Denmark and will include integration to other sub-systems. The Kilometer Tolling Scheme is part of a governmental agreement, however, not yet detailed in Danish legislation, as the final scheme design is subject to political decision and approval.
The procurement includes two agreements: 1) Development and Implementation Agreement, which concerns the acquisition of the functionality to undertake toll calculations and creation of toll billing details, based on a digital map of the Danish road network and the relevant Toll Context Data, including education/training and documentation. 2) Master Services Agreement, which concerns hosting, support and maintenance of the functionality during operation.
The development and implementation agreement covers the acquisition of the GNSS Tolling Engine functionality as a
"System as a Service" including configuration, commissioning, testing, training/education and documentation. The delivery will include integration to Sund
& Bælt’s Commercial BackOffice system and data warehouse systems. The delivery includes all required resources, material and other elements required for delivering the functionality; all software, licenses, integrations, and security elements required to establish and configure the solution. This includes establishing a geomodel based on the
provided Toll Context Data. The GNSS Tolling Engine will undertake the toll calculations and various support functions for the scheme. The function scope covers the process from receiving the toll declarations, to toll calculation, and
creation of toll billing details, all based on a digital map of the Danish road network and the relevant Toll Context Data. The digital map must be part of the delivery. The GNSS Tolling Engine will also provide anonymised traffic data for statistical purposes, a routing engine to support a manual toll-ticket and review and toll correction processes, and a segment identification service, which will indicate the tolled segment
ID for a given geoposition. The toll calculation is made based on the toll declarations received from EETS Providers (EPs). The EPs will send GNSS-based toll declarations at regular intervals, which contain the GNSS positions of their customers’ vehicles. The GNSS positions must be map-matched to the digital map to identify the usage of toll road segments. The liable toll is then calculated using
a tariff table from the Toll Context Data identifying a payable toll for each used road segment. A gap closing algorithm must be included in the engine to cope with segments on which no GNSS position data are received. All tolls for every vehicle which has sent toll declarations must be calculated and sent to Sund & Bælt’s Commercial BackOffice system as Billing Details.
For occasional users, the routing engine will form the basis for a toll ticket based on the same digital map and Toll Context Data. The user can create their route from A to B to C, and the routing engine will calculate possible routes and their corresponding toll. The routing engine will be interactive, enabling the user to select the preferred route. The routing engine will provide a full list of toll segments and calculate the total cost of the route, similar to billing details.
The basis tendered road network (approx. 6,500 km) to be covered by the GNSS Tolling Engine might be extended with two options:
• Functionality to extend the GNSS Tolling Engine to include road network within low emission zones including hosting, support and maintenance for the extension (approx. 1,000 km).
