This procurement falls under the category of business travel services and will cover the provision of an online managed travel service, including air travel, rail, hotel accommodation, and other related business travel needs for domestic and international travel. The tender period will close on 7th March 2018, with the contract expected to commence on 1st September 2018 and last until 31st August 2024. The procurement method is selective and involves a competitive procedure with negotiation, indicating a focused search for a single provider to fulfil these services. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the travel management sector, particularly those specialising in online booking systems and comprehensive travel services. Companies that can demonstrate value-added services, robust risk management, and real-time traveller tracking capabilities would be particularly well-positioned to compete for this contract. Additionally, providers capable of managing both domestic and international travel logistics could find substantial growth potential through collaboration with the University of Manchester. ## Notice The University is seeking to award a contract with a single provider for the provision of travel services. The provider will need to demonstrate a value added service and the requirements cover the provision of a mainly online managed travel service with some off-line support. The service should cover all rail, air travel, hotel accommodation (including budget hotels) and other requirements related to business travel for both domestic (within the boundaries of the UK) and overseas travel.
