The service is intended to offer an innovative, customer-focused experience and support the airport’s passenger needs. The requirement is for the airport’s FX operation rather than a general airport service contract, so it is most relevant to businesses able to run foreign-exchange services in an airport setting. The buyer is London Luton Airport Operations Limited, and delivery is at London Luton Airport in Luton. The opportunity is a single concession covering the FX service; its detailed scope is set out in the procurement documents. The buyer invited offers through a two-stage process: applicants first complete a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire, and those who qualify are invited to the Request for Bid stage. The submission deadline set by the buyer was 28 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The stated contract period runs from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2032, representing a maximum term of five years; bidders may propose a three-, four- or five-year term, subject to the break and notice provisions in the procurement documents. The buyer anticipates commencement in February 2027. The evaluation emphasis described is on high-quality service, operational excellence, value for money and an improved passenger experience. No procurement value is stated. The opportunity suits foreign-exchange providers with the capability to operate a passenger-facing service at an airport and deliver reliable, high-quality operations. Strong customer service and the ability to improve the passenger experience are central to the requirement, alongside value for money and an innovative service offer. Suppliers should be able to support demand associated with approximately 19 million passengers a year, making airport-scale operational capacity and service resilience commercially relevant. Individual organisations and consortia may apply, and the buyer welcomes capable and committed organisations from the public, private and voluntary or community sectors. This makes the opportunity potentially accessible to specialist FX operators and partnerships that can combine currency services, airport operations and customer-service expertise. No particular accreditation or prior experience threshold is stated in the available procurement description. ## Notice London Luton Airport Operations Limited ("LLA") is voluntarily advertising this opportunity through Find a Tender solely to enhance the profile and visibility of the opportunity.
