Rail Social Value Tool Steering Group
10/03/2023
The Rail Social Value Tool Steering Group (RSVT SG) brings together key users of the Rail Social Value Tool (RSVT) to provide a governance function for the RSVT and to inform and guide the ongoing development of the tool. The RSVT enables rail organisations to forecast, monitor and evaluate the data they collect relating to social value.
"The RSVT SG will provide governance, guidance, advice, support, challenge and recommendations on the effective running and future direction of the RSVT and its supporting processes."
Scope
The RSVT SG is a forum for users of RSVT to engage with RSSB and other industry partners on the practical aspects, capabilities, future enhancements, and quality of the RSVT. It does this by:
- reviewing the function of RSVT, including queries as raised by RSVT users, and discussing and considering improvements
- supporting RSSB in identifying, testing and implementing improvements in the RSVT
- sharing of learning and good practice
- providing feedback, guidance and governance on priorities (industry need and direction) for the development and release of new functionality and product enhancements.
Membership
The RSVT SG has members representing the following industry stakeholders:
- RSSB
- Loop
- Network Rail
- other infrastructure mangers
- passenger train operators
- freight train operators
- other operators including rolling stock companies
- other rail organisations (where they utilise RSVT).
