The procurement contact named on the official notice.
The University is looking for tenders to support the supply of its Coach and Mini Bus needs.
Looking at spend analysis, Durham University has spent on average £310,000 per annum in hiring coaches and mini buses over the last 3 financial years.
The main objective of the contract is to provide a high quality transport service for staff, students and visitors within the University.
The key considerations include, but not limited to, health & safety of all passengers, reliability and flexibility of service, staff, student, and visitor satisfaction, and promoting positive relations with the wider community.
In addition to the above, we are striving to appoint operators who can demonstrate capability in helping us meet our duty of care to our staff and students.
The University expects that the successful operators will have a duty of care when carrying passengers and it is essential that passenger safety and passenger care are the top priority for operators to follow.
We are aiming to put together a framework agreement for coach and mini bus hire with a small number of operators so that we can work with coach operators, and increase the possibilities of creating better working relationships between the University and coach operators.
