The tender period commenced on 12th August 2020, with a submission deadline set for 27th August 2020, and the contract is scheduled to begin on 14th September 2020, running until 30th July 2021. The procurement method is an accelerated open procedure due to uncertainties surrounding campus operations amidst the pandemic, with a total contract value of £835,800 for the service, classified under the CPV code for the hire of buses and coaches with driver. This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in transport services. Businesses that can offer flexible and safe transport solutions in accordance with the university's requirements would be particularly well-suited to compete. The emphasis on encouraging public transport use could also align with sustainability goals, appealing to companies promoting eco-friendly transport options. ## Notice Whilst the main contract objective is the operation of a shuttle service to connect the University campus to the local community and train station in Horsforth, the safe movement of students in the post COVID-19 era is of critical importance and will form a critical part of our strategy. We are seeking tender responses to operate a range of service options; to enhance the accessibility of the university and encourage more of our staff and students to travel by public transport instead of driving to campus ******************************************************************************* The procurement will be conducted exclusively via the university's e-tendering website, where all documentation can be found and downloaded: https://neupc.delta-esourcing.com/members/leeds-trinity-university/ ******************************************************************************* The invitation to tender opens 1600h 12th August 2020 The tender submission deadline is 1000h Thursday 27th August 2020 ******************************************************************************* Accessing a Tender Opportunity via the university's e-tendering website: Once you have created a supplier profile, to respond to an opportunity, click 'Response Manager' or 'View Invites' and Responses.
