  2. Methodology – as set out in Proposal

  3. Methodology – links to others HIE CMAL TRi

  4. Methodology – progress  HIE CMAL TRi

  5. Baselining • Confirm routes, harbours and vessels • Collect data on Community Needs • Attend consultation events • Identify existing integration • Future Needs? • Key Linkages?

  6. Defining Communities

  7. Sparsity Index • Objective measure of accessibility • Employment • Education • Health Care • Also tourism, retail, population trends, etc • Community “Index of Need” • Gap analysis

  8. Linking Problems and Possible Solutions • What are the problems? • Which need to be addressed? • How might they be addressed?

  9. Applying Generic Solutions to Specific Problems • Take the generic solutions • Look at the specific problems • How can they be addressed? • Select appropriate solution(s) after gap analysis

  10. Methodology – next steps HIE CMAL TRi

  11. Fares, Funding and, Cost and Affordability - Methodology • Consistent approach based on STAG principles: • Benchmarking (National and International); • Analysis of Problems, Issues, Opportunities and Constraints; • Option Testing; and • Inputs to Strategy.

  12. Fares Analysis Where are we now? - Current ferry fare systems Problems and Issues International Benchmarking Opportunities Constraints What are we trying to achieve? - Project Objectives, Government’s Purpose etc Stated Preference Government Objectives Testing of different fare systems Consultation Input to Strategy

  13. Funding Analysis Where are we now? - Current funding structures Problems and Issues International Benchmarking Opportunities Constraints What are we trying to achieve? - Project Objectives, Government’s Purpose etc Government Objectives Consultation Analysis of funding options Input to Strategy

  14. Cost and Affordability Where are we now? - Current operating costs / main cost elements Problems and Issues Operator Benchmarking Opportunities Constraints What are we trying to achieve? - Project Objectives, Government’s Purpose etc Operator Data Government Objectives Testing of different cost structures Consultation Input to Strategy

  15. Data Collection • Household survey designed and undertaken – processing results; • Stated Preference survey underway – fieldwork taking place; • Most operator data now received, although some small items remain outstanding; and • Continuing to receive inputs from other WPM’s

  16. Four Stages of STAG Pre Appraisal Analysis of Problems & Opportunities Problems / issues / constraints / opportunities Objective Setting Option Generation, Sifting and Development Initial Appraisal Detailed Appraisal Post Appraisal Strategy Structure – STAG Context

  17. 1. Cost to government of current service provision: Ongoing operating subsidy Infrastructure maintenance and investment costs New vessel costs How were these costs met in the past and why is that no longer appropriate or sustainable for the future?? 2. Elements of current service provision – not meeting ‘user’ needs? Routes, Fares, Journey times, Frequency, Operating hours, Reliability, Punctuality, Quality, Integration, Accessibility, Operational convenience Information obtained from consultation workshops and SP / household / business / freight surveys on a ‘community’ basis 3. Elements of current service provision – not meeting national policy needs? Government’s purpose - Sustaining vibrant island communities – grow population, economies and productivity, Reduce Regional disparities, Environment / climate change targets, Cost effectiveness 4. Lack of consistencyin service provision, lack of strategic approach All of this could be brought together in Problems & Issues / Consultation Report to give a clear picture of the problems & issues the Review is specifically setting out to tackle Problems / Issues – Four Perspectives?

  18. Constraints Vessel size and ‘uniqueness’ to routes / harbour dimensions / water depths etc Current Tenders Operating constraints staff terms and conditions (TUPE) Working times regulation etc European Commission investigation European legislation Future of public sector funding? General maritime regulations Opportunities European Commission investigation New upcoming Tenders for Northern & Western Isles This review New methods of procurement / service delivery? Constraints & Opportunities

  19. Problems / Issues should be clearly linked to Working and evolving Transport Planning Objectives Options should be generated / sifted and assessed in this context Community / route options Methods of Delivery, Competition & Procurement Objectives could be ‘SMART’ened throughout the process Strategy Structure – STAG Context
