## Summary

The University of Exeter is currently seeking bids for the "Provision of a Travel & Trace Solution" as part of their Covid-19 response initiative. This tender falls under the category of software package and information systems, with a particular focus on tracing system services and business travel services. The procurement is in the active Tender stage, inviting open submissions until the deadline of 30th July 2021. The contract is expected to commence on 4th October 2021 and run until 3rd October 2024, with delivery required in the South West region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses that specialise in software development, travel management, or emergency response solutions to engage with a prominent educational institution. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, leveraging their agility and innovative capabilities to meet the University's requirements for a robust and centralized travel management system. Companies with expertise in health and safety compliance within travel logistics would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

As part of the Covid-19 response, establishing the location of internationally travelling staff and students was key to identifying at risk individuals in order to provide support to return to the UK/to home countries, or to provide remote support where this was not possible. This has driven the requirement for a more robust travel process to enable a quick and coordinated response to any future incident. Our vision is to have a high profile travel and trace solution, working across Professional Services to offer security, safety and emergency management as a single point of information for all travellers. The centralised solution will ensure all UK and international travel is registered by policy, with responsibility and accountability defined, and booking unable to progress without confirmation of (a) authorisation to travel, (b) health and safety risk assessment completed and approved, and (c) confirmation that insurance will be in place.
