The service is intended to be innovative and customer-focused, supporting passengers travelling through the airport. The buyer is seeking a partner able to deliver high-quality service, operational excellence, value for money and an improved passenger experience. The requirement concerns the provision of an airport FX service rather than a general banking contract. The opportunity is aimed at organisations able to operate a customer-facing foreign exchange service within the airport environment; applications may come from individual organisations or consortia, including public, private and voluntary or community sector organisations. The buyer invited offers through a two-stage process: applicants first complete a pre-qualification questionnaire, with successful applicants invited to the request-for-bid stage. The submission deadline set was 27 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period is due to run from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2032, with 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. This is a single-lot concession. The buyer describes the required balance as high-quality service, operational excellence, value for money and an enhanced passenger experience; no detailed scoring weights are set out in the process information. This opportunity suits foreign exchange providers with the operational capability to run a reliable, customer-facing service in a busy international airport. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate high service standards, strong day-to-day operational performance and the ability to offer value for money while improving the passenger experience. The service must be designed for an airport environment handling approximately 19 million passengers per year, so bidders need capacity to serve substantial passenger volumes and maintain consistent delivery. The buyer welcomes applications from individual organisations or consortia and encourages capable applicants across the public, private and voluntary or community sectors. The contract can be proposed for different term lengths, offering some flexibility in how a supplier structures its delivery commitment. ## 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.
