TII’s objective is to establish a standing list of industry experts and specialists, with expertise in certain specialist fields, who can be called upon to provide TII with ad-hoc support as required by TII. TII intends to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to provide a streamlined procurement route for engaging the specialist services of such individuals. For example, TII may have a requirement for a steering committee member, a project evaluation board member, an expert witness, an independent technical advisor, a trainer or an industry expert. TII has a requirement to develop a panel of experts who: — have extensive personal knowledge / wisdom and skills in particular areas (transport, road, metro, light rail etc.) based on their many years of experience, — can be relied upon to offer completely unbiased and independent comment and, in this context, can confirm non-association with industry players so as to avoid any conflicts of interest. In all instances the individuals will be engaged with a view to harnessing their personal knowledge / wisdom and skills in the context of a specific initiative, typically the engagement would be: — in respect of high-value and/or high-risk initiatives, — for a limited period and for a limited number of hours, and — would not involve the engagement of the individual's support staff or associates.
