## Summary

The University of Nottingham is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process for Intercampus Transport Services, aiming to enhance transport facilities for students and staff across its campuses. The procurement is classified under road transport services, with the service set to commence on 1 August 2018 and extending for up to five years. Interested providers should note that the deadline for expressions of interest is 12 noon on 17 November 2017, while the engagement activities will conclude on 23 February 2018. The services will primarily operate within the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom.

The established demand for intercampus travel, with approximately 950,000 passenger journeys annually, highlights the potential for long-term partnerships and revenue growth in this contract.
